use insulting nicknames at all. The old saying that "people who have facts recite the facts, and people who don't, scream insults" applies. When we use our insulting nicknames on Rice, Bush, Limbaugh, Coulter, whomever, we appear less respectable and are not taken as seriously. These folks are bad, and we have the facts to prove it, we don't need the silly insults.

I'm not into censorship, use whatever names you feel best, but that's my opinion on the subject.

Edited for atrocious and incomprehensible syntax
