"Bush told them to bring it on and the Arabs [insurgents] did" So all arabs are insurgents, and not terrorists? Try again. "I omitted the word 'insurgents' because it was implied and I thought understood by all." But I pointed out that one of the most hard core leftists on the thread (dougr) called me a racist thinking I said what you said. When you clearly state that Bush told the Arabs to bring it on when you know he was referring to a very small percentage of Arabs, and NEVER used that word it just shows the dishonesty inherent in your position. When you need to be dishonest to make a point, the point is probably wrong. It is an easy test to apply, and you should give it a try. "From where I come that's a common practice in English" Where do you come from? I have never heard of an area where it is common to substitute Arab for terrorist or for insurgent. "I will make every effort to avoid such short cuts in the future since its so disturbing to you." You should do it for your own good, and to clearly make your point. It is you who lose credibility, not me. Many lefties on this thread PURPOSELY make such substitutions to amplify their point. Since your main point is that you hate George Bush I can only assume that the substitution was meant to make Bush look bad. But it really just showed your bias.
