Contemporary examples of political noncommunication are the soundbites, buzzwords, position statements, and agitprop surrounding the John Roberts nomination to the Supreme Court.
 
a. on the Right: "We need a conservative like John Roberts on the court because these liberal-socialist-activist-judges [who don't agree with us] behave more as legislators [oppose our values] than they do justices"
b. on the Left:    "We respect [don't like] John Roberts, however he is a stealth conservative nominee who wont necessarily protect a woman's right to choose any and all family planning [abortion] available.
