Apparently so. Even NPR newsreaders don't use that term, for some reason.

i mean, seriously, where do you go with this? It's like, you can't argue with this kinda shit, because it comes from nowhere arguable. Reason's greatest failure is its assumption that it can trump unreason, and modern times show that ain't the case. Like these assholes harping on the oil-for-food thing. It doesn't matter that american companies were the driving force behind that shit, it can just serve as some bullshit connection that disingenious john birch-soaked jerkwads can use as a cudgel to attack. It doesn't matter that when the oil-for-food thing was actually looked into, it turned out to be nothing much there(at least on the U.N.'s part), which is why the brouhaha died off without much fanfare, these assholes have nothing left, so they have to go back to weak ass attack on discreted U.N. connections, or, even better, attacking a president who's been out of power for about six or seven years.

"I would have sold him a pardon for campaign money"
This notion is so completely moronic I can't believe the cartoonist isn't pulling my fucking leg. Correct me if I err, but -- presidential pardons -- aren't they generally issued as the president is LEAVING OFFICE?? and obviously, that's when a president needs campaign money. RIGHT?
NO. NO NO NO. WRONG.
for the sake of sweet fuck, McCoy, get one clue.

The hands-together, head-nodding subservient racist stereotype is actually of Indians, not Pakistanis. So the guy even fails at being a good bigot.

He has been saying that islamism is a poor way of describing the philosophy of Al Qauaeda et al. because people hear the islam and this just serves to alienate Muslims further altho that the 'war on Terror' is a pointless slogan and combatting terror is not war.
They have been changing language and tactics.

To give the guy some credit, i don't think this is what he was going for. The clasped hands/arched fingers is more of a "plotting evil"/Mr.Burns-type of thing.

from your day? note that the character is portrayed as being between her mid 30s to mid 40s, making "her day" the Reagan era.
Also, same line of reasoning we've heard elsewhere: if we just let the generals FIGHT the war, if we just let our soldiers loose and not worry about all this collateral damage or destroyed infrastructure, why, we'd have them licked by christmas! I mean, hell, massive brutality worked so well in the philippines!

DBD is so completely and utterly frustrating because I see the words, and I'm proficient in English... but in this case, the words are completely devoid of any kind of meaning. If pressed, I could not re-state Muir's point in any one of his strips. (other than the generalized "HAHA Lib'ruls SUCK" bullshit)
At least with the fucking duck I feel like we're speaking the same language.
― milo z, Tuesday, 10 July 2007 18:19 (sixteen years ago) link
yeah I kinda feel that way too - the narratives are so disconnected and buried in layers of "ironic" commentary that I don't even know who's who or what they're getting at.

Shinseki is famous for his remarks to the U.S. Senate Armed Services committee before the war in Iraq in which he said "something in the order of several hundred thousand soldiers" would probably be required for post-war Iraq. Donald Rumsfeld and Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz publicly disagreed with his estimate.

If nothing else, at least in these guys lazy attacks, the point of the attacked concept is getting across, i.e. they actually understand what a "carbon footprint" is, even if they attack anyone talking about it or the very idea of caring about it.
