‘Kinetic military action’ or ‘war’? – Jonathan Allen – POLITICO.com.

Remember when the lefties began using an alternate term for the A word.  You know……. Choice  = Abortion.

Now there’s a new word for another kind of killing.  It’s “Kinetic“.   Kinetic used to mean ‘of or pertaining to motion‘, before the lefties got a hold of it.   Of course, action is pretty much a similar thing.  So you have extreme redundancy surrounding the term ‘military’ to refer to WAR when the lefties do it.

So there you have it:  War = Kinetic Military Action.

The bonehead who may be credited with this latest idiocy is Deputy National Security Advisor, Ben Rhodes, and here’s his statement quoted at the Politico:

“I think what we are doing is enforcing a resolution that has a very clear set of goals, which is protecting the Libyan people, averting a humanitarian crisis, and setting up a no-fly zone,” Rhodes said. “Obviously that involves kinetic military action, particularly on the front end. But again, the nature of our commitment is that we are not getting into an open-ended war, a land invasion in Libya.”
