‘Oppose us while using our language’

Doug Hen­wood:

Yeah, it’s funny. Car­i­ca­tured elites protest­ing to defend priv­i­lege. But Occu­py­ing Wall Street is set­ting the agenda. Bour­geois organs have to respond, if only iron­i­cally. Bush’s speech­writer Matthew Dowd used to say that if you oppose us while still using our lan­guage, we’re win­ning. Looks like some­one dif­fer­ent is win­ning, at least for now.
