Feingold Slams Bush's Language: "Islamic Fascism" Is "Misleading And Offensive"...
Democratic Sen. Russ Feingold (news, bio, voting record) called on
President Bush to refrain from using the phrase "Islamic fascists," saying it was offensive to Muslims and has nothing to do with terrorists fighting the United States.
"We must avoid using misleading and offensive terms that link Islam with those who subvert this great religion or who distort its teachings to justify terrorist activities," Feingold said Tuesday in a speech to the Arab American Institute on Capitol Hill.
