@TruthSandwich Exactly. The "war of words" is extremely important and the dishonest Republicans have been doing an outstanding job at this. They've co-opted words like freedom, liberty, patriotism, conservatism, and made them their own to bash people over the head with. They know that Americans love those words so they use them constantly.

Any kind of social program is tagged with the words socialism / communism. And they know the vast majority of their supporters can't define either one. They're just "bad words".
