DuBois Bourenane Sun, 20 Sep 2009 20:18:39 +0000 http://newsjunkiepost.com/?p=6591#comment-1581 I already commented on this post on facebook, but I'll add here that it's worth noting Ms. Bernal misuses the term "obscure." The wording on the website is not obscure at all; it is clear and specific. Ms. Bernal actually wishes it were more obscure, so that those who know nothing about Islam could see the trigger word "Ramadan" and find some point of identification. I applaud the White House's efforts to stop the dumbing down of political discourse, and thank them for extending such kind holiday wishes.

IN fact the suggested way implies an ignorance of the event. Eid is the right name for Muslim festival. I dont think there s anythign wrong in the statement.
