Global War on Terror ends

| March 31, 2009

I wrote last week that the Obama Administration intended on dropping the “Global War on Terror” label in it’s efforts to keep us safe from the language. The Pentagon denied that there was any conscious effort to avoid the term, while admitting there was a conscious effort to avoid the term.

Well, Hillary the Clinton confirms that there is indeed a conscious effort to avoid using the Global War on Terrorism term to describe the global war on terror;

“The (Obama) administration has stopped using the phrase and I think that speaks for itself. Obviously,” Clinton told reporters traveling with her to The Hague for a conference on Afghanistan, which Bush called part of his “global war on terror.”

Obviously? What is so obvious about it?

Why change the term? Well, because George Bush called the Global War on Terror a global war on terror – that’s their only reason. In a childish shift, reminiscent of Eric Shinseki issuing black berets to improve the Army’s combat readiness, the Obama Administration has decided to change the name.

So let me get this straight – Obama’s Hope and Change in the war on terror means to do everything that Bush was doing, just change the name of it? That’s why the hippies and ne’er-do-wells voted for him?

I feel safer – how about you?

Terrorism will now be called “man-made disasters”. Some Orwellian wordspeak if you ask me. Down right scary. Only 1315 days until we can elect a new President.

Will the President now be referred to as the Rectal Cranium Inversion in Chief?
