How to scare the American public into voting Republican.

Republicans are lying to you. It's obvious. It's "textbook." Here's the proof.

The 8MB zipped file contains two PDF files; scans of a 160-page briefing book by Frank Luntz of Luntz Research Companies on the lessons learned during George W. Bush's 2004 Presidential campaign & subsequent win against candidate John Kerry, despite Bush's dismal public approval ratings.

This paper is being made public on scribd in an attempt to give it greater exposure and to further expose Republican dirty tricks so they can never damage my country again.

Here's a discussion thread about this paper:

The tactics contained in this document have proven extremely effective for Republicans when communicating Republican talking points. This document can be thought of as an intermediate primer on the subject of language framing.

We know it is effective, but why are so many people willing to be deceived?

In order to understand why this is effective, we need to understand the Republican voter.

From the American Psychological Association, Inc.:
A peer-reviewed psychology paper analyzing "political conservatism as motivated social cognition [integrating] theories of personality (authoritarianism, dogmatism/intolerance of ambiguity), epistemic and existential needs (for closure, regulatory focus, terror management), and ideological rationalization (social dominance, system justification)." Heavy going, but worth it.
