Well, it's about time!

Waffles!

I guess death cultists is out.

As the EU goes, so goes our State(less) Department.

Remember, Bush can fire her anytime he wants to.

Calling John Bolton....

Even Jimmy Carter uses the word jihad.

Everybody is the Taliban except for the Taiban.

Probably you can't say son-of-a-bitch either.

How are we supposed to fight a war when we're not supposed to name the enemy nor use the words the enemy uses to describe themselves and their actions?

She will heretofore be known as Condi Sidedish.

Dahij?

Can we get a GRRRRRR! with the Arrrggggh?

I agree. We should not call them "jihadists". We should call them what they really are - "Fanatical Muslim Murderers" sounds better.

The word "Islamist" will soon be in the next list I presume. How about "Muslim"?

re: #10 seekeroftruth

How are we supposed to fight a war when we're not supposed to name the enemy nor use the words the enemy uses to describe themselves and their actions?

Watch your language.

I wonder if RoPer is OK?
Didn't Dubya use the term Islamofacist?

Next thing you know TERRORIST will be a proscribed term.

I suggest that all Police Departments forbid the use of the word "murder". that should solve the problem of illegal killings. Simple. Effective. Bullshit!

"murdering terrorist scum" is undoubtedly completely out of the question, eh?

/i feel so much safer now.

There may be some hope for McCain toward this end.

But we know that Condi Rice and State were strongly opposed to Carter's meetings with Hamas. Yeah, I know - that has all the force and effect of a UN Resolution or a Security Council harshly worded statement denouncing someone for doing real bad things.

Still, that State is playing semantics thinking that if we choose just the right words to describe jihad, it will improve our image overseas. Not gonna happen.

Jihadis hate us to our very core. It's their ideology, stupid. As much as the ivory towers want to reframe the issue as one being the fault of America for all that ails the world, this is a problem that began well before the US was even a gleam in the eyes of the Founding Fathers. And unless Muslims around the world finally divorce themselves from the jihadi mindset and stand up against the nihlistic and genocidal thugs who force everyone else to cower in fear, we're going to be dealing with jihad for a good long time to come.

A Jihadi by any other name is still a Jihadi.

Can we still say filthy Zionist Joooooooooooos?
/

Ok.....whack jobs...they're whack jobs....ok?

a skunk by any other name smells just as bad. Let's apply another name to that group: MURDEROUS SWINE.

Well I am advocating language like: "Voting for any democrat is prohibited by law".

Gee, that solves alot.

And what kind of generational idiot would look for a job with an outfit which tells you what you may say or not say?

If this has been going on for a long time I would suspect that the State Department is full of time serving fools.

Its getting difficult to tell the difference between the UN and our own useless State Dept.

Hey State... we can't "redefine" our way to peace. A jihadi by any other name will smell as dank.

People in State actually get paid real* money to think stuff like this up?

* Taxpayer money that is, which may or may not be real.

re: #30 stevieray

Heck never mind smell as dank, try "will still try to kill you."

re: #38 Angel

Exactly.

Fail. This last part of Bush's term has been a spectacular failure. He;s turning this country into 1930's Europe. You know, denying that the Nazi (Islamofascist) threat exists and caving in to them and giving them whatever the hell they want.

One of the worst things he did was appoint this "sheep in sheepdog's clothing" Secretary of State.

I, honestly, am scared for this country.

Because removing the language removes the problem... Words just have that much power. That's why talking is preferable to war, it's not avoidance of violence, just a better application!

Oy...

And to think some pple wanted Condhimmi for VP..
are they the same ones who still think Carter is remotely human?

Wog?
Arab?

Does that mean we have to censor the terrorists' own announcements and self-descriptions?

Kewl, Condi.
/not

When Alan Greenspan (I think it was - or Volker?) didn't want to use the word "recession" a few years ago, he decided to use the word "banana" instead. Didn't he go before Congress and declare that he did not see a "banana" in the near future?

If it looks like, smells like, feels like...must be shit.

This is going to make it somewhat difficult for State Department spokespeople, press release writers, and Condi herself, to mention the names of several well known Islamic Jihadi terrorist groups.

It seems that Condi and the State Department are following the advice of the stealth Islamist Khalid Abou el-Fadl, about whom Daniel Pipes has written.
[Link: www.danielpipes.org...]

Prof. el-Fadl seeks to sever the consciousness in the West that the terrorist jihad is linked to a version of Islam. That is what a stealth Islamist does.

What the State Department is doing is not going to fool the jihadists, and it is not going to fool Muslims anywhere. It will only serve to confuse the public in the West, so that the enemy cannot be properly identified and understood.

Every element has a state.

State Dept. is the natural state of Administratium.

New Element Discovered........Administratium

A major research institution has recently announced
the discovery of the heaviest element yet known to
science. This new element has been tentatively
named "Administratium". Administratium has 1
neutron, 12 assistant neutrons, 75 deputy neutrons,
and 111 assistant deputy neutrons, giving it an
atomic mass of 312.

These 312 particles are held together by a force
called 'morons,' which are surrounded by vast
quantities of lepton-like particles called
'peons'.Since Administratium has no electrons, it is
inert. However, it can easily be detected as it
impedes every reaction with which it comes into
contact.

A minute amount of Administratium causes one
reaction to take over 4 days to complete when it
would normally take less than an hour.Administratium
has a normal half-life of 3 years; it does not decay
but instead undergoes a reorganization, in which a
portion of the assistant neutrons and deputy
neutrons and assistant deputy neutrons exchange
places.

In fact, Administratium's mass will actually
increase over time, since each reorganization causes
some morons to become neutrons forming 'isodopes'.
This characteristic of moron-promotion leads some
scientists to
speculate that Administratium is formed whenever
morons reach a certain quantity in concentration.

This hypothetical quantity is referred to as
"Critical Morass."You will know it when you see
it...

Doesnt Jihad mean 'striving for peace' ?

Lets just call them .. 'mad peaceniks'
