Yea, 3000 coloquialims on 9-11, another 200 on 3-11, another 60 on 7-7. Lots of those pesky coloquialisms.

"Democratic" is the correct adjective, not "Democrat." It would be like me calling somebody a member of the "Republic party."

Good news.

Actually it's not just the Democrats who believe "War On Terror" isn't entirely appropriate.

President Bush;

"We actually misnamed the war on terror," he said. "It ought to be the Struggle Against Ideological Extremists Who Do Not Believe in Free Societies Who Happen to Use Terror as a Weapon to Try to Shake the Conscience of the Free World."

Rumsfield;

“I don’t think I would have called it the war on terror. … Why do I say that? Because the word ‘war’ conjures up World War II more than it does the Cold War. It creates a level of expectation of victory and an ending within 30 or 60 minutes of a soap opera. It isn’t going to happen that way. Furthermore, it is not a ‘war on terror.’ Terror is a weapon of choice for extremists who are trying to destabilize regimes and (through) a small group of clerics, impose their dark vision on all the people they can control. So ‘war on terror’ is a problem for me.”

Former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs, Richard Myers;

“General Richard Myers, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told the National Press Club on Monday that he had ‘objected to the use of the term war on terrorism before, because if you call it a war, then you think of people in uniform as being the solution.’ He said the threat instead should be defined as violent extremism, with the recognition that ‘terror is the method they use.’”

Actually, it is the Democrat and Republican parties. Of course, the Democrats love being called the "Democratic" party. It conjures up all of those wonderful feelings of democracy in action, the democratic majority, the democratic process, etc., etc., etc. Yet, if you have a preference, you declare yourself as a Democrat or a Republican. Not a "Democratic" or "Republicratic". But, as all good Democrats believe, it's the words that matter much more than the subject or the action. The label is what matters, not what the label is put upon or describes. And thus, we have political correctness in action. Yet, it is great to live in a democracy where all can air the opinion they wish without fear of reprisal or retribution. Oh, but wait, we happen to live in a constitutional republic. Perhaps your logic is correct, and a name change is relevant in these circumstances. So then we could have the Democratic Party and the Constitutional Republic Party. Wonder how the Democrats would respond to that?
