The I really don't think you understand the connotation that MOST people would ascribe to "Imaginary Friend" .

And just as important, there is quite simply no need for euphemisms and most decidedly dysphemisms in describing sincerely held religious belief. .

Are you a big proponent of using euphemisms for describing ethnicity or sexual orientation? or???

In another context -- "Imaginary Friend," Senator Tom "Sandbag" Daschle, after suckering senate Republicans into a rush to federalize aviation security, is outraged today due to "the administration's failure" to comply with the new law.

It seems SecTran says the feds will be unable to screen all bags by some date (I missed date).

One wonders if Daschle and Dicky G. pushed the legislation to protect the flying public or to saddle the administration with a program that is a no-win proposition. Looks like all future air disasters will blamed on the GOP.

Really, really ugly and definitely non non-partisan.

I wonder if "Sandbag" beats his wife (American Airlines lobbyist) because of all the times AA has dragged feet on security in favor of the bottom line?

Trent Lott is an embarrassment and, also, IMO, pretty stupid.
