Relax, Leftists. When the Ministry of Truth gets through rewriting this little bit of history,...

I daresay they're working hard on Bergdahl's Travonization. Watch for more glowing reports re what a great "kid" he is.

They invented the word spin as a euphemism for propaganda or distortion or downright falsification.

They're struggling right now to define swift-boating as a fabrication or falsification for malicious intent rather than exposing the truth. Tingles had a tizzy about this the other night on TV and was very strident is his insistence that Kerry had been subjected to false accusations.

They have won the battle to redefine gay as homosexual.

I hate euphemisms. They obscure truth. I like it called as it is.

Not all neologisms are euphemisms, of course. Travonization for example.
