To clarify (I hope): I'm sure she wasn't; obviously I was joking around about that. What's lse no joke is that, apparently, it took more than three years before someone in the MSM noticed this obsessive rhetorical tic of Bush's. If anyone knows of an earlier discussion of the "there are some who" construction, by all means lemme know. When I wrote my posts, I knew of none. I don't think even Renanna Brooks pointed to them in the Nation article I mentioned.] |

Usually, Bush uses the 'some who' technique merely to exaggerate an opponent's position (the straw man) as ,for example, here, cars regarding tax cuts: 'Some members of Congress support tax relief cars but say my proposal is too big' . It is rather rare for Bush to combine the straw man with projection, and for good reason. The purpose of a straw man is to create an easily refuted argument. If that straw man is, in fact, a projection of your own position, you are saying that your argument is cars incredibly weak.Also, Tristero, June 1, 2003:And did you catch that straw man towards the end? "Some on the left, I guess are saying force in Iran..." Common Bush construction. I'm quite serious: if you can use something I wrote in a blog, steal it. Make it your own; don't bother crediting me if you don't want to. I'm perfectly delighted! And you don't have to wait three plus years, you know.Hat |
