Following up on our post of a couple of days ago, in which we quoted a Slate piece that mocked the Administration for "rebranding" the War on Terror. According to Media Matters, Bush has frequently criticized the phrase "War on Terror":
We actually misnamed the war on terror, it ought to be the struggle against ideological extremists who do not believe in free societies who happen to use terror as a weapon to try to shake the conscience of the free world.
I stand corrected.
But how many times did he use "war on terror". I would think that if he really wanted to change it, he would have by now. THat's one thing this admin is good at: regimented use of language.
