When is a Timetable Not a Timetable?

When they call it a "time horizon."

Maybe that is what Amtrak ought to call their printed schedules: "Time horizons."

It's really more doublespeak from the Bush Administration, in the same way that sending a senior diplomat to a negotiation session with the Iranians and planning to open a US interests section in Tehran is not negotiating with Iran.

    I guess we can't say that the Bushies didn't come up with anything new.
