Definitions

Here are some definitions for you, to guide you as you wander the wacky world of commentary.

Descredited Plan (as used by John Nichols yesterday) - any scheme which most people within your party or political bent don't believe in. See for example, discredited Democratic social programs or discredited Republican economic policies.

Terrorist (as used by conservative pundits) - Al Queda, Hamas.

Terrorist (as used by liberal extremists) - the United States, Isreal

Rogue Nation (as used by Conservative Pundits) - Iraq, North Korea, any non Western Europeon nation that challanges the United States or any Corporation based in the United States.

Rogue Nation (as used by Liberal Pundits) - the United States, Isreal.

New Tone (as used by David Limbaugh, today) - President Bush's bizarre and wrongheaded plan of working with Democrats to pass legislation he obviously doesn't believe in, such as the education bill. Alternatively, it means not crushing the democrats like bugs but instead realizing that they have political power and must be worked with not against.

Policies of Racial Equality (As used by David Limbaugh) - Making sure that America is safe and fair to white people.
