Parsely

This is from Ted Kennedy's attack on Clinton, aka his speech for Obama: "Through Barack, I believe we will move beyond the politics of fear and personal destruction and unite our country with the politics of common purpose."

He's perfectly allowed to believe this. I just hope he doesn't think there's any connection between the first part of that sentence and the second part.

You don't think the first is a condition precedent for the second?

Nothing unites a people like fear and destruction.

In any case, both phrases are about as meaningful as the "politics of meaning."
