Both administration were discussed. Should I call both 'Bush administration' to confuse everyone? The expression "Bush administration" is simply insulting and confusing the reader who must 'assume' which administration was being referred to - possibly with embarrassing responses from a confused interpretation. Quite logical to define both men and both administrations by their proper names - George Jr and George Sr. No nicknames are used.
However the term 'slick Willy' is intended only to be insulting. Serious political TV news shows don't use the term 'slick Willy'. But the expression 'George Jr' and 'George Sr' are often used in discussions involving both administrations. It is their names.
Presented are realities of politics. If sticking to my post's purpose, then posting would be about the 'smoking gun'. War without a 'smoking gun' reason is simply contrary to American principals. When America violated those principals - VietNam - then American violated another nation and lost the war. It is fundamentally wrong to justify war without an honest 'smoking gun'.
Those who don't need a 'smoking gun' to justify war have gone down in world history more often as villians. Hitler fictionalized a 'smoking gun' on Czechoslovakia to justify an invasion. Nazi propaganda films are considered classics because of how a ficticious 'smoking gun' was created to justify an invasion and the resulting capitulation. Those films set new standards for propaganda. Their purpose - a 'smoking gun' is required even by the Nazis to justify war.
Why then avoid the point with repeated nonsensical posts about George Jr / George Sr when even national news discussion groups use those expressions to delineate between both administrations. Those expressions are not insulting. Furthermore, those news discussion groups don't use insulting expressions such as 'slick Willy'. But then I am not so intolerant as to complain about another's silly use of Clinton insults. The insult is irrelevant, being only silly emotion, and not worthy of Cellar posts. This reply is only because one uses the insult 'slick Willy' and yet gets upset when George Jr and George Sr are described by names on their birth certificiates.
I hope you understand why I find your complaint ironically amusing - and maybe facetious? You would use an insulting term for Clinton and get no response. I just post their proper and legal names - and get criticized emotionally. Amusing - but avoid the issue.
