Reality becoming increasingly unacceptable

Sunday, 15 October 2006

Chimpus Maximus has a new favorite word -- "unacceptable" -- which he has been steadily using more often:

In the first nine months of this year, Bush declared more than twice as many events or outcomes "unacceptable" or "not acceptable" as he did in all of 2005, and nearly four times as many as he did in 2004. He is, in fact, at a presidential career high in denouncing events he considers intolerable.

Funny. Lots of his opponents have been using that same word for years.
