That’s it! That’s it! Semantics are our problem. Why, we’ll just banish that inconvenient word, earmark: Out. Out. Out, damned spot. It worked so well with abortion, murder some called it, but we decided it would be a choice. Much nicer word, don’t you agree? Not the least bit messy, who could argue with a choice.
And so, a word to the New York Times: Make it so,and we will all be happy everafter.
So you are being ‘Anti-Semantic”? :-)
