The new administration doesn't like the term \"War On Terror\" or the \"Long War\" we are now to refer to the strife overseas as \"Overseas Contingency Operation\" or \"Global Struggle Against Violent Extremism\". So no longer are we at war. Obama has ended it as he said he would.

How lame, at least Bush wore a spiffy little flight suit and flew a plane to a carrier for the announcement when he declared mission accomplished.
Let's see if the press lets him off the hook like they didn't for Bush...

Yet we had the \"War on Poverty\" and \"War on Drugs\". Have those names been changed also?

I never liked the phrase \"War on Terror\", but they change it to something most Americans would need a dictionary to read it clearly
