Words

President Obama, I support the Americans' outstretched hand. But what did the international community gain from these offers of dialogue? Nothing." - French President Nicolas Sarkozy, Sept. 24 
When France chides you for appeasement, you know you're scraping bottom.

I'm starting to think "appeasement" is one of those words going around that is automatically inserted into everything, used any way somebody wants it to, correctly or not. Like "precipice," or "woman's orgasm."
