The use of the term "Raghead" as a generic name for all Arabs is not acceptable and does not promote what America stands for in this conflict. How about..."there is some GUY standing in front of the cam...There is some GUY talking near the cam. Just a little common sense.

I do not use that term, nor have I ever. Therefore, please address your criticisms to someone else. And I would welcome a suggestion on a deragatory name for Saddam's henchmen. Thank you.

Sure it is. Maybe you'd like to offer an alternative, like Huns, Nips, Gooks, etc.

The use of the "raghead" term should be reserved for those who are actively opposing the US action AND who are not ignorant. Ignorance IS an excuse. Those who oppose our action and know WHY we're in there (not to mention those who are shooting at US troops) are, at the very BEST, "ragheads."
