Mark Steyn says it perfectly:
"You gotta hand it to these guys: "Redeployment" is ingenious. I'll bet the focus-group consultants were delirious: "surrender," "lose,","scram," "scuttle ignominiously," "head for the hills" all polled poorly, but "redeploy" surveyed well with all parts of the base, except the base in Okinawa, where they preferred "sayonara" -- that's "redeploy" in any language. The Defeaticrats have a clear message for the American people. Read da ploy: No new quagmires."
Yes, both parties use certain words to make a point. We say "death tax" referring to the double and sometimes triple tax on estate taxes to make our point there. But redeployment is just a fancy word for "we give up" and everyone knows it.
