Ann Coulter Wants To Know

SURRENDER BY ANY OTHER NAME ...

"How did we go from winning the war in Iraq to losing overnight? Was this decided by the same committee that changed "Peking" to "Beijing"?

These word changes are a fortiori evidence that liberals are part of a conspiracy. On what date did "horrible" and "actress" vanish from the English language to be replaced with "horrific" and "actor"? Who decided that? (Meanwhile, I'm still writing "Puff Daddy" in my nightly dream journal when everybody else has started calling him "Diddy.")

When did "B.C." (before Christ) and "A.D." (anno Domini, "in the year of the Lord") get replaced with "BCE" (before the common era) and "CE" (common era)? "Withdrawal" is "redeployment," "liberal" is "progressive," and "traitorous" is "patriotic.

These new linguistic conventions — like going from "winning" to "losing" in Iraq — simply spread like an invisible bacterial invasion..."

This is why science doesn't re-classify Neanderthal into Neandertal. Too many regional upheavels causing one form of spelling and pronunciation to supercede what was once written in stone, so what was, will remain. It's why I use the perfectly acceptable moslem instead of the in-favor muslim. Tweaking something everytime some nutcase crawls from out of the woodwork and DEMANDS we speak and spell HIS way, isn't making it over at Casa Messenger.

Basically, it boils down to the loons having nothing NEW to offer, so why not disremember what's old and CALL it new.

If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshit.
