After hearing this, I'm so interested in the undervalued role linguistics plays in clouding political progress. More time should be spent exploring the diverging views of words like "values," "freedom," etc.

Finally, someone who expresses the frustrations of so many Americans concerning the Republican spin of the political language! Republicans have managed to turn the word “liberal” into an insult. But Democrats are just as much to blame—Instead of standing up and saying that they are proud to be liberal, they have cowered and mumbled that really they are just “progressive.” In doing so, they are playing right into Republican hands. Nunberg really hits it when he remarks that “if you bail out on the liberal label, as Democrats have done, you merely leave it to the Right to define your own name, the name that people will use to think of you.”
