Pretty good article here on George Lakoff. I’m a fan and I’m glad he and the Rockridge Institute are getting national recognition - and credit – for the noticeably effective voice of the ‘minority party’ in these Bushy days.

I can't help it. I still like the notion of Liberal, more than Progressive; in spite of all the framing both receive. It retains charm, in a quaint, utopian, sense. It appeals to me in the same way over-hearing a Woody Guthrie song through an open window would, as I walk by an old Victorian house. Is there a frizzy gray-haired woman inside? Is she wearing a gingham smock dress, busy with something; but taking a moment to glance at the LP cover? Is she seeing it through laughing eyes, alive with intelligence and memories? Charmed, I'm sure.
