I , for one, don't believe is was an exact slip of the tongue when GWB called this effort a "Crusade" waaaaay back in 2001

Neither do I. But you might try looking up what the word "crusade" means in modern English. Richard the Lionheart is way down the list of definitions.

Most of us here know it is a war against militant Islam, Nemer. A few on the left here like to pretend that it is a "Pancho Villa" situation. They want us to treat the terrorists as criminals and not annoy the Arab States that sponsor them.

Bush's "Crusade" statement was an error. No need to take on all of Islam.
