About this listen

Rhode Island Republican Senator Lincoln Chafee and linguist Geoff Nunberg, on this edition of Fresh Air. Lincoln Chafee is serving out his term after being ousted by Democrat Sheldon Whitehouse in the mid-term elections. Chafee is considered the most liberal Republican in the Senate, and is the only one to have voted against the war in Iraq. He made another notable split with the GOP when he united with Democrats to oppose the nomination of John Bolton as Ambassador to the United Nations. Then, Geoff Nunberg considers some of the words that made headlines this past year and were part of the zeitgeist. [Broadcast Date: December 13, 2006]Want to learn more about linguistics?
