Forgive me if I am wrong but wasn't 1984 about control people through language and thought control? I if remember right the people were controlled mostly by the news that they were allowed to get from the state.
Now I won't deny that we have a lot of thought control going on today like undocumented not illegal and so forth. But as I recall a lot of this "newspeak" was started by the people most of you are advocating that us poor brain washed conservatives listen to.
It was the liberals in the media and politics that decided that someone is differently-abled not handicapped.
It seems to me that it all depends on your point of view. If you go for Bush then Kerry = 1984. If you go for Kerry then Bush = 1984.
This is one of reasons I am a big advocate of the 2nd amendment to the constitution. As long as the people have the right to keep an bear arms 1984 will never happen in the country.
I support Bush but I don't agree with everything he has done. The Patriot Act for on scares me some. However I know that I have a better chance with Bush of being able to stand up and have to tools available to do so than I do with Kerry.
