When examined in gross detail, the English language is one of rich expression. But it can also be used in many negative ways. One can use it to misinform and therefore to manipulate people. One can also use it stroke one’s own ego into erroneously thinking that their belief systems represent the values of the vast majority of Americans. Take the word “moderate” for example. John McCain (R.I.N.O. - AZ) is a self-professed “moderate”. But in whose opinion? There is nothing moderate about a sitting United States Senator conspiring with other Senators to circumvent the will of the overwhelming majority of Americans by rewarding millions of foreign criminals with coveted US citizenship.
