Jim Dipeso, policy director of Republicans for Environmental Protection, at a 2003 conference bragged that the Interior Department is in the process of expunging the word wilderness from the dictionary.
Other words expunged from the Republican dictionary over the past four years include: clean air, clean water, peace, diplomacy, honesty, child care, health care and education. It’s pretty obvious given another four years under the Bush administration that the American people will end up with a vocabulary of two words – power and money.
I think it’s time for a regime change, don’t you? Duh!
