...at this link soon: <http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5516284>

I can't even begin to tell you how much Frank "death tax" Luntz infuriates me, that's why it was such a treat to hear him getting all flustered today when George Lakoff, professor of linguistics at the University of California at Berkeley and senior fellow at the Rockridge Institute throw the truth back into his face by calling the 2003 Iraq War and war without end, or "war on terror" as he likes to call it, what it truely is, the Iraqi Occupation.

I think we should all start calling it that, it's very hard for them to spin.
