Sheehan Calls McCain a "Warmonger"
Cindy Sheehan met with Senator John McCain and all McCain got out of the meeting was the label "warmonger". It serves the attentioned craving McCain right - he had no business inserting himself into this mess and giving the unbalanced Sheehan more publicity along the way.
What interests me is Sheehan's choice of words.
Many new words are formed by simly putting two words together - for instance "pancake" which comes from a combination of the word "pan" and "cake" to make pancake. The word "warmonger" comes of course from combining the words "warm" and "onger". My understanding is that Onger is a variation of eggs Bennedict but instead of using Canadian bacon - breaded and fried eggplant is used. So my question is - is "warmonger" a bad thing? Warm would be the right temperature - so is she calling McCain a good thing? "Hotonger" could burn the roof of your mouth and "coldonger" doesn't sound too appealing. Never mind the question of whether using eggplant instead of a meat in a breakfast meal is the right thing to begin with.
