Empathy In The Bush Years
Mai The Oklahoman Editorial Watch : He rangitaki kei te mahi ahau
e pa ana ki nga korero a Columbia Journalism Review "Te Nupepa Kino rawa atu i Amerika"
E tika ana kia kitea e te kaitirotiro ohorere i nga ra kua pahure ake nei, e pa ana ki te korero a Sotomayor, kua aro atu nga kaimahi etita o Oklahoman ki nga rangatira aroha o te taha matau (Rove, Armey, Limbaugh et. al.) nui atu i o mua.
I roto i tetahi waahanga pai e kiia ana "Empathy, Sotomayor, and Democracy: The Conservative Stealth Strategy", He tino marama te whakamarama a George Lakoff he aha nga tangata nana i whiwhi "o ratou whakaaro" a nga kaimahi o te Etita o Oklahoman e kii ana i o raatau korero, me te mahi i a raatau mahi.
I mua i taku urunga atu ki nga mea e korerohia ana e Lakoff i roto i te tuhinga, ka hiahia ahau ki te whakapuaki i tetahi blurb mai i te Oklahoma Editorial i tuhia i muri tonu mai i te Iowa Primaries, i te wa i wikitoria a Mike Huckabee me te Perehitini Obama.
See change: Obama, Huckabee ride possibility politics
I whakaputaina: January 6, 2008
"…I hinga ano a Huckabee i tetahi hoa whawhai pai ake te putea moni, ko te Kawana o mua o Massachusetts a Mitt Romney. te aroha for the concerns of real Americans — economic and cultural — which he communicated artfully. Voters liked Huck." katahi ka whakatau nga kaituhi, he mea whakamiharo "I kitea e Huckabee tetahi tikanga mo nga wikitoria nui e kore e warewarehia e etahi i runga i a raatau ake utu. I hono ratou ki nga kaipōti i runga i te taumata rereke, i te mohio ki tetahi mea kaore i te pai ki nga kaupapa tikanga me nga kaupapa here."
Now to the Lakoff article. In the piece he states a number of things that make it quite clear why we are seeing this attack on the issue of "empathy" from the far right. Here are a few I will point out, and if you would like to read the whole article I have included a link up top.
"(te ahua o te aroha e ngana ana a Obama ki te awhi homai) …he tirohanga mo te kawanatanga e aro nui ana ki ona tangata whenua me te whai mana mo te tiaki me te whakamana i a ratou. Ko te whakamarutanga kei roto i nga kaimahi, kaihoko, me te tiaki taiao tae atu ki nga kupenga haumaru me te tiaki hauora. Ko te whakamanatanga kei roto ko nga mea kei roto i te mahere whakaohooho a te perehitini: nga hanganga, te matauranga, te whakawhitiwhiti korero, te kaha, te waatea o te nama mai i nga peeke, te maakete kararehe e mahi ana…Ko te ngakau aroha i roto i tenei tikanga he riri ki te atawhai, e whakaatu ana i te takitahi, ehara i te hapori, kawenga me he ahua tino whakawhiu mo te 'tika'. Ehara i te mea miharo ko te ngakau aroha ka noho hei kaupapa tiaki nui i roto i te arotakenga a Sotomayor."
Ka haere a Lakoff ki te tuhi, e whakaae ana ki nga korero a nga kaiwhakatikatika o Oklahoman ko nga take i kowhiria ai e Iowan a Mike Huckabee "...President Obama has argued that empathy is the basis of our democracy. Why do we promote freedom and fairness for everyone, not just ourselves or the rich and powerful?" He mea whakamere te korero a nga kaiwhakatikatika mo Huckabee me tona aroha, me te pehea o te hunga i hinga ia ia "… ka warewarehia i a raatau ake utu". Inaianei kei te mahi ratou ki a Obama i runga i te tikanga ko te whai whakaaro nui ki runga i te ngakau aroha he mea ka pau i a ia.
I mua i taku haere, e hiahia ana ahau ki te korero i tetahi mea he tino take ki Te Oklahoman. Kua tohu ahau he maha tonu ta ratou purei i te "He Republican tatou! Ehara i te Manapori!" he maha nga kaari, me nga wa katoa ka pai ki a raatau (heoi ka tohu ratou ki nga pooti rongonui ina he take e mau tonu ana ratou). Ko te CIA World Factbook e mahara ana ko ta matou momo Kawanatanga ko: Repupirikana e pa ana ki te Ture; tikanga manapori kaha. For those who might cringe when they read that Obama discusses things like the "basis of our democracy", they might consider whether or not they want to be like Pelosi and assume the CIA is giving us bad information.
Kei te whakatakoto tonu a Lakoff i tana keehi ko te taha matau kei te hanga pakiwaitara ma te whakaatu i te kowhiringa a Obama ma te whakahoki ano i te ngakau aroha kia taea ai te whakaeke ma te whakaatu "emotion and personal feeling"kaore i tana hiahia"tino aroha"Koinei te putake mo te mea e tika ana kia noho tatou hei Republic e mahi ana (me nga tikanga manapori kaha).
Ko tetahi take mo te ngakau aroha i runga i te kare-a-roto me te kare-a-roto, ki taku whakaaro, ko tetahi i hiahia nga kaiwhakatikatika kia awhihia e France i te wa o nga pakanga i Afghanastan me Iraq. He mea tino kino te whawhai, kaua e whakatau ma te hunga e whakawhirinaki ana ki nga kare-a-roto. Ka taea e tetahi te korero ki a koe, heoi, kare tetahi e mohio ma te panui i tenei waahanga Hakihea 17, 2001:
Ērā Wīwī Hurorirori kau: Āwhina ki te kaiwhakatuma e whakapaetia ana ehara i te mea miharo
(e waatea ana te tuhinga i roto i nga purongo)
In this editorial, the staff writes about "….France’s announcement that it would offer legal help to accused terrorist (Tangata French o Moroccan whanau) Hakaraia Moussaoui (as we did with Timothy McVeigh)" ka haere tonu ki te whakamaarama he pehea te ahua o tenei mahi ki a ratou "... Ma te pono, ko matou me tumanako mai i France."
I te haere tonu, ka mau nga kaituhi i a raatau ano ma te kii "... Inaianei, na te tohu ki a Moussaoui me te muhumuhu i nga awangawanga mo te whakamahi i nga taraipiunara hoia i roto i nga keehi iti, kei te whakaatu ano a Parani te aroha no te mea he ahua kerekere a Amerika."
Inaianei, e mohio ana tatou katoa he aha nga mea i tupu i roto i nga tau e whitu-nui mai i te wa i tuhia ai tenei. Ko nga whakatau ki te haere ki roto i nga pakanga e rua (kaore tatou e wikitoria), me te whakaaro ka pai ta tatou mahi me etahi atu ka tautoko mai i runga i te kare-a-roto me te kare-a-roto, ehara i te mea pai. Inaianei kua tino marama kua whakatauhia e France nga whakatau tika, me te whakarere i te ahua o te ngakau aroha (ko te mea e tino pirangi ana te tika ki te whakapae i a tatou e whai ana a Obama) me te mahi tika.
I tua atu, he tuhinga whakamere na William Pfaff te taitara "As Smash-and-Grab Capitalism Collapses, the French Economy Shines" e whakaatu ana he aha i hiahia ai te taha matau ki te whakaatu me te mea he tangata a Obama/Sotomayor ka pohehe te whakatau, me te kawe i nga mea kino mo tatou:
"French household debt is half that in America, no bank has failed, none has been nationalized, executive pay is reasonable, and "the income gap between the top 10 percent and the bottom 10 percent is far smaller than in Britain or America." The country is crisscrossed by 230-mph TGV trains, 80 percent of the power is nuclear (and more is exported), its auto producers are in reasonably good shape, Air France is the most profitable airline in the world, and French-dominated Airbus sells more planes than Boeing."
He korero whakamere a Lakoff mo tetahi atu take e takaro ana te taha matau ki tenei keemu. Ka tuhia e ia "...In the last election, conservative populists moved toward Obama. Conservative populists are working people, mostly white men, who have conservative views of the family, of masculinity, and of the military, and who have bought into the idea of the ‘liberal elite’ as looking down on them. Right now, they are hurting economically, losing their jobs and their homes. Empathy is something they need." Ka kawea mai e ia te ahua o nga rangatira rangatira penei i a Newt Gingrich e takaro ana i te kaari reihi me Sotomayor me te whakamarama na te mea ko te utu "...he kaupapa tōrangapū, e mau ana ki te hunga populist. Ko te ahua o te tohenga tawhito tawhito ka mahia i enei ra: ko te liberalism he kaupapa torangapu. "
He mea uaua nga mahi torangapu, engari mena ka awhi tatou i te tino whenua ko tatou te whenua tino herekore o te ao, a ko tera wahanga o te herekoretanga ko te urunga nui ki nga korero me nga hitori, kaua ko te uru ki nga huamata taco reka 24/7, ka mohio tatou ki enei. tino pai nga mea. I te 21 o Hanuere, 2008, ka panui matou:
A hi'o na to ratou ti'aturiraa i te mau faatere here o te pae atau e to ratou mau haerea, tei haape'ape'a i te aroha te niu o to'na ti'araa. Mo te wa tuatahi ka korero mai ki a matou he kino te ngakau aroha, engari kare i te whakamaarama tera pea he tino "whakapae taha matau" i noho tonu, i mau tonu a Pire ahakoa tana mahi kino, e oati ana (he hara kino atu Ko nga whiu nanakia a Iraki, te whakakore i a Glass-Stegal, ka murua a Rich me te kore e kimomata i te kamo ki te huarahi whanui o Peltier, aha atu...), mena ka pai ake a Gore i te tau 2000. he tuhi-taha i konei, he aha te mea nui kia mohio ko te psuedo-empathy i kawe mai te tangata penei i a Hillary ki te mana. He iti ake te pai o te Oklahoman i a Huckabee me tenei Kaiwhakahaere Matua:
I whakaputahia i Akuhata 27, 2004
He mea tika tenei na te mea he tangata a Hudson he "...he kaipakihi atawhai, me te rite ki te wawaotanga a te kawanatanga i roto i taku oranga ka taea. I whakapae ahau mo te Ture mo nga Hunga Haua o Amerika (ADA), ehara i te mea kei te whakahe ahau ki nga tangata haua engari na te mataku ahau ki nga whakawakanga koretake me nga mahi tinihanga e whai ana i nga kaupapa a te kawanatanga."
Ka haere ia ki te korero mo tetahi aitua, me te kite i te ahua o te haua mo etahi wa. Ko te tino kii a Hudson kei te harikoa ia kua kitea e te Kooti Hupirimi te ngakau aroha ki te hunga haua (ehara i te ngakau ngawari e taea ai e te tangata kopa te mahi. poma nga roopu marena a Afghani ki te whakaputa i tona riri i tona raruraru), e kitea ana i roto the cases listed here. He uaua ki te whakaaro i tetahi waahanga penei e whakahaerehia ana i The Oklahoman i tenei wa.
Ka mutu, ka kii a Lakoff "...the attacks on Sotomayor work as attacks on Obama and progressive thought. They are also attacks on "moderate" conservatives, who think with progressives on many issues. The attacks activate radical conservative ideas in the brains of those who voted for Bush and the 47 percent of the voters who voted for McCain." ka haere tonu "...Kei te mau tonu ta raatau miihini karere, me nga kaikorero whakangungu kua tohua ki runga pouaka whakaata me nga whakaaturanga reo irirangi puta noa i te motu (Folks like Dick Armey who spent increadible amounts of money, and explained this by saying "to the victor goes the spoils"). Attacking Sotomayor, even when they know she will win, allows them to rally their forces and get swing-voting conservatives thinking their way again." and he states what people who think this is wrong should do about all of this.
Ka mutu ahau me tetahi atu wa Bush, pro "kare-a-roto me te ngakau whaiaro" empathy pieces. And it is one many of the readers The Oklahoman preys upon consider important, and that is our relationship with Israel.
I have written a few things about The Oklahoman’s foolish opinions regarding this topic. If we assess their self-proclaimed "Friend of Israel" status, and see what results have come from people like these guys having a voice, we can learn something. One of which is quite obvious that like the dear leaders on the far-right, the gospels are something they know very little about.
I te mutunga o te '01 tuhinga etita, kua whakahuahia nga ahuatanga. Ka whakahuahia e ratou te 9-11 i etahi wa me nga mea tino whakamataku penei i te "..
Ko nga whakaeke poma whakamomori a nga kaiwhakatuma hou i mate i te iti rawa 26 nga tangata o Iharaira i mate i Hiruharama me Haifa i enei wiki.
..." ka mutu ki "...
Ae, pehea te pai o to maatau mohio inaianei. Me te hou te aroha, me tu te United States ki te pakihiwi me tona hoa a Iharaira ki te whakawetiweti - i te wa e tono ana a Yasser Arafat ki te whakapuaki i tona pono whakamutunga.
. "
The Editor’s cheered for emotional based empathy in dealing with Israel and it’s issues and they got it. For those of us who know our recent history, in 2004 we decided the UN was not such a

and all of the dear leaders was no doubt something, if embraced by Obama and Sotomayor, that would not a good thing. However, all we have is a game from these people that says they posses them, rather than the kinds of facts presented I have presented here about their accusers.
