OK maybe I'm just nitpicking but this annoys the crap out of me for some reason.

It's debated on the news all the time between Dem's and Repub's 'Winning the war on terror.' Now just how is it possible to win a war against terror? That would be like trying to win a war against crime. There will always be crime and we will always have terrorist.

We can win individual battles but I just don't see how a war on terror could ever be won. I understand if this is just an expression but how can you debate some thing that can't be done. The Democrats claim we have no clear plan to 'Win the war on terror' DUH yet Republicans debate it all the time saying we are winning the war on terror.

Oh course there is no clear plan to win the war on terror because thats impossible. Can someone splain to me why they use this term?
