    Andrew Klavan of The Revolting Truth is busy formulating a Leftese Dictionary for those of us whose first language is English. He takes common Leftese expressions and gives the dynamic equivalent for the expression in everyday English.

    For example, take the everyday expression, "You're a racist."

    "You're a racist" (and the pronunciation is given) means: “I have no logical arguments.”

    Other Leftese expressions for “I have no logical arguments.” are

    1. “I am offended.”

    and 2. “the science is settled.”

    Question: What's the difference between a leftie and a rightie?

    A leftie will call you a racist for questioning Obama's policies.

    A rightie will call you a traitor for questioning neocon's policies.

    Answer: Not much when they both use the same tactic and complain about the other one using it.
