		<description>That&#039;s why I deliberately changed from “Islamofascism” to “Islamic fascism”.  Because there ain&#039;t no difference in parlance.  

Lazy? Perhaps. 
Colloquial? Of course. 
Accurate in intent &amp; purpose? Absolutely.  (Frindle is a case in point)

Solecistic?  Only in the same way that anal retentive purists would object over &quot;ain&#039;t&quot;, double negatives and delight in exercising the gamut of esoteric syntactic judo in order to impugn bigotry and derive offense thereof.  

Antics like this is how we come to situations like the PC crowd going ballistic over the term &quot;niggardly&quot;.  How pathetic...</description>

		<description>Maybe the issue isn&#039;t so much what I refuse to accept but the fact that -- no matter whether the term &quot;Islamic fascism&quot;, &quot;Islamofascism&quot;, or &quot;fascists who also happen to be Islamic even though there is no natural correlation between the two&quot; was used, some deconstructionist windbag wound find some reason to take offense.</description>

		<description>Far from it.  Only that the word has linguistic implications that you plainly refuse to accept.</description>

		<description>“Islamic fascism” is different from “Islamofascism.”

Dude, you have way -- way -- too much time on your hands. You honestly mean to tell me that if all us members of the neocon death machine started saying &quot;Islamic fascist&quot; instead of &quot;islamofascist&quot; that everything would be kosher?</description>

		<description>&quot;Islamic fascism&quot; is different from &quot;Islamofascism.&quot;

Give me a freaking break, Andy.  It&#039;s almost as if you didn&#039;t read my post.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;The words put together that way indicate a special intersection of two sets. To call someone an “Islamofascist” linguistically places them out of any previously recognized descriptive spheres, and that’s just hyperbolic.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Give me a freaking break Fargus.  I&#039;ve already showed you weeks ago that the term Islamic fascism was around for decades, long before it became fashionable for closet bigots like Ryan to call non-whites &quot;brown people&quot;.  Long before Americans even clued in to the fact that certain sects of Islam wanted nothing less than to stand on the neck of infidels like us. 

Furthermore, the term first gained popularity amongst &quot;brown people&quot; that objected to the irrational longing for 7th century lifestyles based on Sharia, because it accurately describes the implicit notion that not all Muslims are fascists and not all fascists are Muslims, yet one had best beware the malignant evil that lies at the nexus when these two worldviews are connected at the hip.

Tell you what, when they quit calling us infidels, implying that we all deserve dhimmitude, then I&#039;ll retire the logical &amp; theological bridge between Islam &amp; fascism.

Back to &quot;Brown people&quot; and how it is PC stupid.  In all the ruckus emanating from Kenya, it is clear that Islamofascism is at the root, yet, try as I might, I&#039;m only seeing Black people involved.  For some strange reason, brown people are strangely absent, even as Christians are slaughtered in their churches - all in the name of Allah. Before the pagan or secular Kenyans get too complacent, Allah&#039;s warriors will be coming for them next.  But I guess these un-brown people have nothing to fear from us since Barack Obama and their leader chat on a regular basis.</description>

		<description>I think there&#039;s a difference between using an adjective and a noun (as in &quot;Spanish fascist&quot;) and making up a whole new word as though nothing in existence could possibly describe the horror (and thus also tying Islam and fascism closer in people&#039;s minds).  To call someone a Spanish fascist implies not only that not all Spanish people are fascists, but that not all fascists are Spanish.  The words put together that way indicate a special intersection of two sets.  To call someone an &quot;Islamofascist&quot; linguistically places them out of any previously recognized descriptive spheres, and that&#039;s just hyperbolic.</description>
