This is an outrage. This is BS. Napolitano's "nuance" sucks. Dick Cheney was right to criticize the Obama administration's new policy.

The politics of fear?

Calling terrorist acts "terrorism" has nothing to do with the politics of fear. It has everything to do with REALITY.

Sometimes, being fearful is being realistic. The threat from Islamic radicals is real.

This "man-caused disasters" crap is ridiculous. The United States Homeland Security Secretary shouldn't sound like a politically correct, "everything is relative" Reuters hack.

It's wrong to call the slaughter of 3000 people, the destruction of the World Trade Center, the damage to the Pentagon, and the crash of Flight 93 in Pennsylvania something as benign as a "man-caused disaster."

It was terrorism.

This is like spitting in the face of all those throughout the world who have suffered and died due to the savagery of Islamic terrorists.

It's wrong to diminish the horror and the evil of those acts by softening the terms.

Who carries out these "man-caused disasters"? Not terrorists.

If we can't call their actions "terrorism," we certainly can't call the perpetrators "terrorists."

I guess we're supposed to call them "man-caused disaster-doers."

We can't be referring to Osama bin Laden as a terrorist, now can we?

What a load!

I will never stop calling the 9/11 attacks "terrorism." Never. And I will never stop calling bin Laden and his barbarian followers "terrorists."

However, I agree to use the term "man-caused disaster."

The 2008 presidential election was a "man-caused disaster."
