Dear Mr. Ashcroft,

As regards the name of your newly-proposed bill, the "Victory Act": could you pick a word that doesn't appear quite so many times in "1984," please? It shouldn't be that hard.

Thanks,
Everyone.

UPDATE: Just to clarify, it's not so much that I'm horrified as amused; I'll be horrified if it actually passes, but for now, I'm just giggling at the addle-headedness of it all. It does make me a wee bit embarassed that my government is this clueless, politics-wise. Oh well. I guess it's a good thing in the long run.
