New York Times Newspeak With Gratuitous Norman Hsu Puns

The New York Times proposes a solution to illegal immigration: Stop using the word "illegal."

America has a big problem with illegal immigration, but a big part of it stems from the word “illegal.” It pollutes the debate. It blocks solutions. Used dispassionately and technically, there is nothing wrong with it. Used as an irreducible modifier for a large and largely decent group of people, it is badly damaging. And as a code word for racial and ethnic hatred, it is detestable.

Nevermind that it's accurate.

Hillary might try this to lighten the stain of her multiple campaign finance scandals. They weren't illegal contributions. They were - what? Lawrence Downes suggests "unauthorized" for immigrants.

Hillary might have other words. I'd like to suggest, "dihsonist." Or maybe "impermihsible." Or maybe we could just call all such questionable funds "contribuhsons."
