billvon 3,132 #1 November 1, 2006 I overheard Bush using the word "unacceptable" again recently in a part of a speech he gave on additional Iranian enrichment capabilities. Noticed I've been hearing it a lot, and sure enough, he's using that word a lot lately: http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/10/12/AR2006101201580_pf.html He keeps using that word. I do not think it means what he thinks it means. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
steveorino 7 #2 November 1, 2006 Every campaign it seems there is a new "byword" back when it was Bush/Gore the term Dems loved to use was "gravitas" I guess "unacceptable" is the GOP's new word. steveOrino Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

"That's unacceptable! We will not tolerate a nuclear Iran!" And they just go about their business, not a care in the world.... Unfortunately, we may need to bomb someone soon, just to remind them how much of a loose cannon we are right now. -------------------------- Chuck Norris doesn't do push-ups, he pushes the Earth down.

Andy9o8 3 #15 November 1, 2006 From the article: QuoteIn speeches, statements and news conferences this year, the president has repeatedly declared a range of problems "unacceptable," including rising health costs, immigrants who live outside the law, North Korea's claimed nuclear test, genocide in Sudan and Iran's nuclear ambitions. On a basic level, I also find these things to be "unacceptable". The problem is, when any President of the United States declares something to be "unacceptable", that tends to imply an unspoken "or else". And if we're not going to follow-through with some kind of "or else", one with real teeth to make it meaningful, all he's doing is de-valuing the word, while petty dictators laugh.
