I finally know what doublethink and doublespeak is. You nailed it on the head, too. Orwell would be proud. The scary part is that (retarded?) people just go along with doublethink. Dangerous stuff.

Palin attributed retard to Down Syndrome, in this day and age they are no longer synonomis. Retarded isn’t even a valid medical term anymore.

It simply refers to someones mental incapacity. Retarded, as in stunted, cut short, growth stopped... it's a legitimate word. Obviously Emanuel meant it as mentally retarded. The word RETARD, however, seeks to dinigrate. A caring person can say, "He is retarded". An asshole might say, "He's a retard" As to the "F" word: Oh yes, I absofuckinglutely use that one.
