re: #315 Oh no…Sand People!

Had I been Newt and decided to make some lame attack, it would have been over golf. Both Pres. Bush and Pres. Obama played golf. President Obama has played a Shload of golf.

“Puttin’ while the troops die!” Something like that to get the populous rage going…well, add to it anyway.

But that would miss the point.

His objection was to use the dog whistle. Golf wouldn’t work. But for that audience, basketball works perfectly.

For the technique to work, you have to have the right code words for the right audience.
