To further the cause of human liberty, freedom, and life as noble beings, we must extend ourselves beyond the murk and mire that is at the heart of divisive and agendized political rhetoric now being used to define membership in, and to communicate as a leftie or a rightie group.

For the sake of clarity please identify the code words, spin, hype, euphamism, double-entendre, etc... and open the discussions here on how we may return to clear and tangible meanings as a culture of noble human beings.

Feel free to be dead serious or as creative as you like, or to just ask a good question while we explore this topic.

For example: States rights might mean gay-rights, not too long ago it was code speak for racism.
