Someone is probably cursing me for saying that, but I’m in better company than Tucker Carlson. Namely, someone who gave Tucker a lot of praise: Rush Limbaugh. Just trying to help, Tucker. You are a gem.
Rush was the one person I remember trying to pound that statement, “Words have meaning”, into his listeners, almost every day he was on the air. It appears that it might have stuck with some, but for others, the lazy ones, it just went in one side, and out the other.
Democrats have been defining and re-defining words, as long as I can remember. We live in a republic. We democratically elect those in our congressional and senatorial districts, and the president, to represent us, as their constituentsin national, state and local elections. We don’t have anything that resembles a democracy, other than that one thing. Every time I hear Tucker call our system of government a “Democracy”, it just drives me a little crazy. I know what he means, and for such an intelligent man, I just wish he would start pounding again for what Rush did. It is Democrats who love to call our republic a democracy because it is exactly what they want us to be. We wouldn’t last ten minutes if we were a democracy. To be fair to Tucker, almost every other Republican person I see on videos and the occasional broadcast, use it the same way. That’s a long list, too.
Tucker. I love you, man. Start leading that charge. Quit using the Democrats’ definition. I know how you use it, but we have to be more precise in our fight against the left. If someone doesn’t start with this, how long will it be that those words will come back to bite us.
Two wolves and a lamb… how long ago was that uttered? It is still relevant, whoever actually said it.
“…to the republic for which we stand, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.”
“Battle Hymn of the Republic”
The founders chose a republic for a reason. We are not a “Democracy”. If we were, the Constitution would have been gone decades ago.
“Pride” is one of the Seven Deadly Sins. That’s another that many just use so casually. It’s the deadliest, also.
There are a few more. We can do better than this.

Good morning Mark, this is one of my major pet peeves… I’ve actually reached out to Tucker and his producer multiple times on this: we are a representative republic, not a democracy. As per el Rushbo, words DO matter!
Have a great Sunday patriots 🙏🇺🇸
It is a correction that cannot be made enough.
I say enough things that are not terribly accurate, in daily conversation, but some things have to be held to higher standards when using them.
The Democrat is going to grasp the word “Democracy”, while saying that the Republicans do the same. We never were a democracy, and, at the founding of our country, there was no Republican Party, so that’s hogwash, too. But, to have people we listen to, using democracy as a descriptor, yeh, it’s kinda insulting. Almost like when someone uses clip, instead of magazine, except that one can be chalked up to naivete.
It tells me that Democrats are just in charge of the vocabulary, most of the time. Not with me!
Now, we have really dumb phrases replacing very commonplace words. Birthing person. Strange stuff!
Thanks for the comments!
In the same vein, I wish the conservative press would STOP referring to Robert Francis O’Rourke as “Beto”. It just perpetuates the fraud he’s pushing on the voters on Texas.
