George Will: "Feelings are facts"?
Georgie Boy!
Oh, Georgie Boy!
Here you go again, trying to obsfucate the obvious issue by proffering yet more blithe bafflegab. In the end, the result is always the same: more litter, more 'faux constructs', ... more pundit dung.
Seemingly, you will not be happy until you have covered the entire political discourse landscape with your fetid inanities. Again you have foisted upon us a potpourri of epic marginal value.
"But feelings are fact."???
Your assertion that individual 'feelings' are the empirical equivalent of hard data is absurd. Of course, one's 'beliefs' and 'feelings' are key indicators to how they will vote!
Egad! How did you manage to ferret out this wisdom nugget without divine inspiration?
To state that 'feelings' are an appropriate substitute for hard 'facts' is simply absurd.
We all know what you are really trying to do. You are trying to the convince the voter it is okay if they 'feel' like voting Republican - even if the 'facts' of the past eight years dispute the veracity of this inclination.
What you are really doing is counseling 'group-think' and ignorance. You want the 'feelings' of erstwhile Bushies to substitute for reason.
Clearly when you ask: "...are you better off than you were four years ago? That depends. On what? That, too, depends" - - you are talking out of an orifice usually reserved for other purposes. Only an Obsfucator such as yourself could possibly manage to get the orifice in question to perform double-duty as an oracle. Well done. But my 'feeling' is, it's time you wiped it clean.
Your column today reminds me of a movie review I read that characterized a 'Star Wars' installment as: "Turgid dialogue performed with faux emotion and a woodenness that wouldn't look out of place in the National Forest."
As Stan Lee used to say- 'nuff said
