This weeks Top Ten Conservative Idiots over at Democratic Underground has a story on Sensitive Wars.
John Kerry recently commented that "I believe I can fight a more effective, more thoughtful, more strategic, more proactive, more sensitive war on terror that reaches out to other nations and brings them to our side and lives up to American values in history."
Well not only President Cheney, but also Rush Limbaugh and others immediately hopped on that usage of the word "Sensitive" there. Of course what Kerry means is that he wants our soldiers to be "in touch with their feelings" which is why he will be appointing Dr. Phil as Secretary of Defense. Job one, apparently, is making sure our soldiers understand that it's alright to cry.
Oh wait a second, here on planet earth, the word Sensitive also means aware. He's really saying that he feels he can make our security apparatus more aware of threats from our enemies. I guess that's not as crazy as I thought it was.
Plus, if you check out the post at Democratic Underground, you'll see a nice instance of President Bush using the same language.
