The right has a vocabularly they are comfortable using to express their ethics and morality. The left has "lost" that to a great degree, is what they are saying. Not that the left doesn't HAVE ethics or morality, just no way to express it in a common language. Especially in the modern media sense of the slogan/sound bite/30 second commercial.
It would be even more illustrative to discuss the sense of "coded language" the right has for all manner of ethics based discussions. The right has a long history of this kind of language, everything from "states rights" to "real American" that has a use of expressing more ugly toughts with "unchallengable" language.
