Shelton confirms the power of talk in the specific case of the 1994
debate on comprehensive health care reform and beyond. He provides
a context rich with detail concerning health care and health care
reform in America and a social scientific examination of specific
discourse factors that includes narratives, naming, and medical
metaphors. Shelton's assessment of the debate reveals that
opposition discourse was much more directly impacted and broader in
scope. This is followed by a rhetorical analysis that extends the
genre of crisis rhetoric. Shelton's rhetorical analysis reveals
that the virtual crisis of big government both subsumed and
overwhelmed the actual health care crisis. Such an
assessment--including an ethical analysis of the 1994 floor debate
and detailed consideration of the social existence of hatred for
government--produces a host of research and scholarly implications.
A thoughtful analysis that will be of value to scholars and
researchers in political communication and public policy.
