The Word
DURING LAST WEEK'S congressional debate on Iraq, House minority
leader John Boehner argued that the resolution against troop
increases would leave America's enemies "secure in the knowledge that
America doesn't have the stomach to stop them."
This intestinal-fortitude idiom has been part of the Iraq
discussion for a while now, most notably in Dick Cheney's recent
speeches and interviews. But as far back as October 2004, former New
York mayor Ed Koch was using it to lambaste queasy war skeptics,
declaring that Democrats "don't have the stomach to fight
international terrorism!"
