Newspeak Term Spotted

But in what sense? That's the key to all this blather, making

distinctions, defining terms.

 

I dress preppy, I'm told by one I love dearly. Well, that's a

conservative form of dress, for instance.

 

How is this woman conservative? And what does this mean to you? Bet it's

different from what it means to her.

 

It's one of those Newspeak words, you see. Mustn't let it mean anything,

or it might mean everything, so they confuse and obfuscate.

Those are her words...She feels all Democrats are

Communists. I don't. She argues with me about it.

Really, she is much more conservative than I, is

extremely proud of it and will insist it.

Warmly,

Allison
