I suppose one conclusion could be that Judy is less of a hypocrite and
liar than others since she is, apparently, being called such less.
However, I am guessing some might take a different angle on this. But
if the count had been of blogs on GWB, and many bloggers used copious
amounts of the words stupid, inept, insane, dangerous, incompetent,
shallow, hollow, phony, perverse, insincere, manipipulative and lazy
-- what would be the possible conclusions? That the bloggers were all
projecting their own qualities on to Bush? That all the bloggers were
simply very negative people?
If one counted high number of the words hypocrite, liar, etc in posts
about Bevan, would it be the most logical conclusion to assume the
posters were off the wall negative? Or might in some cases they have a
point?
If one counted high number of the words happpiness, bliss, peace,
coherence etc in TMO press releases, many would undoubtly lament and
decry the bliss-ninny view of the world. Yet, hard hitting language
seems to be taboo too ("liar", hypocrite", etc). What is the moral?
That mediocre, bland language is aa sign of good writing and high
moral character?
