In an excellent and wide ranging interview with Alternet's Evan Derkacz, Democracy Now's Amy Goodman reveals that the Pentagon's original double-secret probation (non)code name for the invasion of Iraq was 'Operation Iraqi Liberation'. However, this moniker was ultimately replaced, just in the nick of time for the saturation usage of Britt Hume et al., by the more palatable Operation Iraqi Freedom.
Why?
Well, the acronym O.I.L. was just a wee bit too blatant apparently, even for the Rovians.
For Canuckleheads, it's brown shades of that very fine, if somewhat pungent, neandercon fusion originally known as the Canadian Reform Alliance Party.
