In this essay Cowan seems to agree with a lot of the things that Orwell said. He knows it is true how politicians use metaphors and other tricky things like that to say something that they want you to believe but in reality it is something else completely. The example he uses is about CNN saying "Civil War" and how there is no real definition of democracy.
They just tells me more about how a lot of politics try and hide their true intent or meaning in order to get something done. This reminds me of when Bush said in his speech that we were going to war againt "terrorism" which could mean any type of force that opposes us. Which is what I believe they we're trying to do from the start anyways.
