Washington, DC – Lexicographer Noah Webster is suing CNN for hackneying the expression “so-called” and filed a motion in federal court today to require publisher Ballantine Books to remove it from his dictionary. In a recent segment on the War in Iraq, CNN reporter Jamie McIntyre said the “so called” surge is not showing much progress, however, he insisted the U.S. military has been planning a more aggressive strategy inside the “so-called” green zone. He added that the “so-called” sleeper cells appear to be propping up “so-called” insurgents in the “so-called” civil war. McIntyre said it remains unknown what our “so-called” President will do next. Judge Larry Seidlin issued a summary judgment in favor of the defendant. He cited that there is no evidence President Bush has performed any of the “so called” duties of a president and therefore, the defendant was justified in calling him a “so-called” President. In reference to the war, Seidlin stated that politicians should heed the advice of the “so-called” Iraq Study Group and start planning a “so-called” exit strategy before our “so-called” democracy winds up in a “so called” world war. The “so-called” judge then ruled the court was in recess.
