Lakoff's theories are realized!

Linguist George Lakoff has spoken and written of this, so you'll be glad (horrified) to witness how correct he was! The insta-poll question today on WOAI-TV.com was:

Do you believe government, in the Terri Schiavo case, has a duty to protect the weak, disabled and vulnerable? (the emphasis is from madmomma)
Yes...
41.3%
No...
58.7%

What a disgustingly biased way to pose that question! As you can see from the results, people weren't swayed by the slanted language!
