Since when

Rate: 3 Flag

--did "Maverick" start to mean "full of shit"?

--did "smart" start to mean "stupid? (Dick Armey, in the heighday of Gingrichy GOP hegemony: "Markets are smart. The government is stupid.”)

--did "mainstream" start to mean "extremist"? (As in, "the mainstream American values " of theocracy, ruthless kleptomania, and Orwellian repression.)

--was our little enclave in Cuba the scary part?

Just wondering, naively.
