[...] Document drop: Whitewashing the “Global War on Terror” out of existence Yesterday, the Washington Post reported on the Obama administration’s vehement denial that it is backing away from the phrase “Global War on Terror.” The phrase has long been a source of debate and rancor – not just on the left, but also on our side because it omits the important, specific context of global jihad and dhimmitude that we are supposed to be combatting.

White House Won’t Rule Out Troops for Pakistan War
By Noah Shachtman March 27, 2009 | 2:08:00 PMCategories: Agony of A-Stan, Perils of Pakistan
President Obama has just laid out his new war strategy. And he’s made it clear that the fight is both in Afghanistan and Pakistan. So I asked Dennis McDonough, with the National Security Council: Does that mean U.S. ground forces in Pakistan? Or more drone attacks? “I’m not going to comment on the notions you laid out there,” he answered, during a White House conference call with bloggers.

Nothing more needs to be said.

Why would any conservative be bothered that they aren’t calling it a ‘war on terror’? The phrase is a total freakin’ lie. Good riddance of that stupid name.

It’s a war on fundamentalist islam. Nothing more, nothing less.

Your right, no need to waste anymore money on Mz. Piglousi than necessary.

Yes, she can just fly commercial from now on. There should be plenty of openings in the business section.

Funny about that. The charity I have contributed the most to this year happens to be one that sends care packages to deployed troops. That on top of the ones my wife and I personally send to my brother in law in Iraq, as well as paying for all refills on his calling card so he can talk to my sister and nieces as often as he wants.

Thanks for doing that, Chap…

So it’s safe to assume at least a few of them have my address.

World War IV. World War T (Terrorism).

Any thing will do.

But remember that past wars were named by the press. This one found the press absent.

I am sure it will grow on you. Just give it same time

It won’t grow on me, but if you want to borrow a razor blade to scrape off the new and unncessary Obama version off your conscience, I ‘ll be happy to lend you one
