This evening, before the big Syracuse--UConn game, I thought it would be fun to see what common partisan and ideological terms were the most common on Whitehouse.gov. Here is what I found:

Man, do they ever like talking about ideology. Or, more accurately, how they don't have any.

Apart from being fun, I don't think these word frequency searches prove anything at all. Other than amusement, I simply hope they might prove useful in a brainstorming capacity.

In the comments, it might be fund to post more search results like these.

Blowback??? (0.00 / 0)
Is it possible that Obama's obsessive talk about how he doesn't have an ideology will, somewhere down the line, spark some sort of inadvertant counter-trend, where young folks who've never really paid much attention to the word before will start to get curious about it?

I mean, Don't Think of An Elephant, anyone?

But, isn't Obama supposed to be a framing genius?

So, if I can just get my tinfoil hat to stay on straight (or, rather at a 33 23-degree angle), maybe Obama really is a secret Muslim Marxist from Mauritania (Kenya is way to obvious) after all!

Someone alert the Freepers!
