Not to be a nit picker, but I am

Congress did not pass a "supplemental". That's an adjective and not a noun. They passed a "supplement" or "supplemental bill". I'm surprised at how many otherwise quite fine writers have picked up on this term both on blogs and in the MSM.

This sort of goes along with fighting "terrorism". One can fight "terrorists", but not the concept of "terrorism".

OK, time for my warm bath and milk.
