ATTENTION....

I hereby proclaim the word UNAPPEASABLE to be the ad-hominem logical fallacy WORD OF THE WEEK.

The person who manages to use this word the greatest number of times during the next week...gets a brand new Websters dictionary, in the hopes that they look up the definition and connotations of the word APPEASE.

Furthermore, it is hoped, that said person uses a little thought process, to conclude, that those people who have changed history, who have stood uncompromisingly for the cause of freedom, were all UNAPPEASABLES....in that regard.

People like Reagan, John Paul II, and Thatcher, when they opposed what Reagan termed the "Evil Empire".

Ill take "unappeasable" any day...when it comes to opposing the leftist policies of Ted Kennedy and company. Its a complement in this regard as well.

Just another Bush bashing day here on FR. I weep for the future... its gonna be real fun with a Democratic lead Congress. Then when another SC judgeship becomes available, there will be all this whining and gnashing of teeth that the judiciary is sooooo important... more important than any other subject.

"Furthermore, it is hoped, that said person uses a little thought process, to conclude, that those people who have changed history, who have stood uncompromisingly for the cause of freedom, were all UNAPPEASABLES....in that regard."

RIGHT ON!! You could throw Neville Chamberlain in the mix, after all, he was definitely "appeasable," and we know from history were that practice gets us.

Fortunately, you and I and many others, are NOT.

BTW, check out my post toward the end, on another misnomer and "charge" which is usually leveled at those of us who disagree--"BASHING."
