Luntz is known for shaping language of proposals, questions, or arguments so as to get the answer you desire. For example labeling the inheritance tax the "death tax" helped to shape public opinion against the tax while labeling relaxed emissions standards the "clear skies initiative" helped raise support that policy. As the Daily Show put it Luntz essentially specializes in spraying perfume on dog turds.
