I'd like you to please find me something concrete that asserts the word "terrorism" has been banned. I doubt you will...

The context of the interview remark in question was that the DHS has to be prepared for all kinds of disasters, and that the Obama Administration doesn't intend to pepper their prepared remarks with "9/11" and "terrorism" every third word in an attempt to scare the hell out of everyone like the Bush Administration seemed to do.

There are thousands of blog rants on this topic and not a single one of them that I read actually forms a conclusion.

Last week at the airport I noticed the official Security Threat was still at ORANGE or "A HIGH CHANCE OF TERROR ATTACK".

High chance? You think I'm going to get on the effing plane if I think there's really a HIGH chance of attack?

you must have missed this in your daily talking points from the administration...it's weeks old...get up to speed..

"terrorist" has also been banned...we're now referring to them as "justifiably angry victims of American arrogance"
