No Terror Talk

Let's hope it works:

WASHINGTON – Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano avoids the terms "terrorism" or "9/11" in remarks prepared for her first congressional testimony since taking office, signaling a sharp change in tone from her predecessors.

Napolitano is the first homeland security secretary to drop the term "terror" and "vulnerability" from remarks prepared for delivery to the House Homeland Security Committee, according to a copy obtained by The Associated Press.

You have to admit, it's a novel approach. "Don't look, don't tell"

Though I would have preferred an IRS ban on the words "delinquent" and "garnish".

Or, how bout getting the SEC to eliminate "downturn", "crash", "recession", and "grab your ankles."
