I was just thinking about the dinky little post below and it struck me how odd it looks to see “liberated” outside of quotes when it’s used in reference to Iraq. How many Bush adjectives belong in quotes? “Liberated” Iraq certainly rings more true than liberated Iraq. The “free” people of Iraq. We’re making “Progress”. Major combat operations in Iraq have “ended”. In the Battle of Iraq, the United States and our allies have “prevailed”. If I had readers I’d ask for submissions. Oh well. Maybe one day.

[update] “Clear” Skies, “Healthy” Forests
