The Rove Da Vinci Code - New York Times
The Rove Da Vinci Code - New York Times L’article est intéressant par la façon dont il démonte les stratégies machiavéliques des communicants, comment ils arrivent à prendre en otage leurs détracteurs attendus eux-mêmes. Mais linguistiquement aussi, par son inventivité lexicale: en deux paragrpahes ci-dessous, deux films récents sont transformés en verbes!
The right’s leaders are already threatening to stay home this election year because all they got for their support of Republicans in the previous election year was a lousy Bush-Cheney T-shirt. Actually, they also got two Supreme Court justices, but their wish list was far longer. Dr. Dobson, the child psychologist who invented Focus on the Family, set the tone with a tantrum on Fox, whining that Republicans were “ignoring those that put them in office” and warning of “some trouble down the road” if they didn’t hop-to. The doctor’s diagnosis is not wrong. He has been punk’d – or Da Vinci’d – since 2004. Though President Bush endorsed the federal marriage amendment then, there’s a reason he hasn’t pushed it since. Not Gonna Happen, however many times it is dragged onto the Senate floor. The number of Americans who “strongly oppose” same-sex marriage keeps dropping – from 42 percent two years ago to 28 percent today, according to the Pew Research Center – and there will never be the votes to “write discrimination into the Constitution,” as Mary Cheney puts it. The real Republican establishment – including Laura Bush, who has repeatedly refused to disown the many gay families at this year’s White House Easter Egg Roll – senses the drift of the culture. “Will & Grace” may have retired to reruns last week, but it’s been supplanted by a gay “Sopranos” tough guy who out-brokebacks Jack and Ennis.
