It happened to me, in my semi-conscious state,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], that there was an anomaly here. The inevitable subjectivity of human judgment and movement was one of the headmaster tenets of postmodernism,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and conservative intellectuals had been railing opposition postmodern theories for a when, considering them the latest outrageous outcroppings of liberal relativism. Lynne Cheney, for instance, the wife of Bush's vice-presidential candidate Dick Cheney, had written a entire paperback on the subject called Telling the Truth, in which she accused postmodern thinkers such as Michel Foucault and Jacques Derrida of aiming at "discrediting the objectivity and rationality at the heart of the technological undertaking."
One night later the presidential referendum of 2000 in November and ahead the final resolution of that election by the United Stages Supreme Court in mid-December, as I lay in mattress listening to Nightline, I listened James A. Baker III explaining to Ted Koppel why it would be wrong to supercede the mechanical counting of referenda in Florida, which had favored Republican presidential candidate George W. Bush over Democratic opponent Al Gore, with handbook recounts: Because, Baker discussed, human creatures were surely prejudiced and fallible, whereas machines were inherently independent and objective.
From these late-night musings, I developed one analysis of the 2000 struggle in Florida,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and its result, namely was published in the March 26, 2001 edition of The Nation beneath the caption "Deconstructing the Election: Foucault, Derrida and GOP Strategy." The additional, corollary doctrine of postmodern calculating that incited the scorn of conservative intellectuals was the argument that, given the impossibility of objective reasoning in human happenings, what happens in history, and how it gets interpreted, are a result of pure power narratives -- accordingly the postmodern catch clause "reality namely socially constructed." I recounted in my treatise how Republican operatives wielded each lever of power obtainable, including, and particularly, by the end, the U.S. Supreme Court,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], to gain the leadership. Republican tactics in Florida in 2000 both made use of postmodernist notions,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], and was one tangible fulfillment of them.
With this background, a column at Neal Gabler that ran in the March 31 issue of The Oregonian crying John McCain "the premier real postmodernist candidate as the presidency" collared my attention. In the col, "The Maverick Manipulator," Gabler contended that the reason because McCain's magnificent beg to the media at that time was his attitude of ironic and cynical detachment toward his own movement and toward politics in common. Gabler saw this attitude expressed in McCain's "willingness, even eagerness, to let the press in above his own machinations of them . . . In exposing his two-way relationship with the reception this way, he reveals the absurdity of the political process as a big game," Gabler said. Expressed differently, McCain during the primary season "let the reception in above" the fact that he didn't actually deem many of what he was purveying to the Republican electorate, but was sa
At the time, I viewed the Republican embrace of postmodernism in Florida as temporary -- an improvisational tactic geared to a discrete, particular location. The judgment was precocious. By July 2004, future New Republic editor Franklin Foer was writing in the pages of that journal that the George W. Bush administration "takes the radically postmodern outlook that 'science,' 'objectivity,' and 'truth' are guises for an ulterior, leftist programme." That October, in an eye-opening article in The New York Times Sunday Magazine by Ron Suskind called "Without a Doubt," the Bush administration's underlying postmodern ideology was starkly accustomed. Suskind quoted a Bush assistant as postulating that human such as him live "in what we call the reality-based community," which the assistant defined as those who "believe that solutions just now your mindful study of discernible reality . . . That's no the way the globe really works anyone extra . . . When we doing, we build our own reality."
