[kj] ot - pakistani arabs and other gems of the most powerfulchimp

[Jim Harper]

If he didn't think he'd said the wrong thing, he wouldn't have changed it. He said 'Arab', he meant 'Muslim'. If he'd meant 'Arab', he'd have left the statement as it was. It's not a question of clarification, because the two words have different meanings. He got the word wrong. His representatives then changed it to the word he had intended to use.
   
  Bush is currently involved in a political relationship with Pakistan. It would be advisable if he could remember that they are not Arabs, particularly when you're speaking to the world's media.
   
  Fluw calling Bush a chimp on the Killing Joke mailing list hardly has the same impact.

that there was a mistake , and Bush's people were just clarifying the real 
meaning. If Fluwdot did nt try to corrupt the meaning , then Bush would not 
have then had to point out what he really meant. And you can NOT then say 
that just because Bush pointed out what the intended meaning was ,then he 
must have made a mistake in the first place.
Fluwdot made an error, not Bush. And Bush reconfirming what he 
originally said , in no way makes him guilty of the things he is accused of.
And how can Fluwdot criticize Bush for not remembering peoples names 
.............and then call Bush a "Chimp". Surely calling a person a chimp 
is worse then forgetting their name?
