He's Luntz, he's Luntz, he's Luntz, he's in my head: Why do Republicans insist on calling the Paris Hilton estate tax the "death tax"? Why are revenue reductions called "tax relief"? Because Frank Luntz, a key Republican pollster, said so. A strong case can be made that it is Luntz, and not Karl Rove, who is the true brains behind GOP message operations.
Curiously, new House Majority Leader John Boehner (R-OH) has decided not to pay any attention to what Luntz has to say.

Preventing Iran from acquiring nukes is a good idea. But the calculus for Iran seems pretty clear. Use strategic nuclear weapons, and NATO and/or Israel will respond with total disaster. So even if they get The Bomb, there's no real scenario where they could use it.
