Karl Rove told me HLJ is the pinnacle of truth, justice, and family values.

Note how succinct his claim is. Note the rational tone of voice. Note the appeal to patriotism with his understated implication that the US is suffering. He missed slightly in this part by suggesting it was the metric system that was held back, not the US being held back. Plus the metric system is kind of "foreign" and serves better as a natural enemy than as an asset. Note the implication of urgency with the phrase "far too long".

Aren't you moved? Somewhat alarmed? Wouldn't you nod your head in agreement with the rest of the crowd of supporters? You would and you might not even notice it.

Also please note the complete absence of reason. Factual truth is INconspicuously absent from this statement. But you might vote for it anyhow because "that right! that sounds right to me!". This happens all the time.

Excellent commentary. It must be election season.
