The ever-more-distant connection

From Calpundit:

Here, apparently, is the evolution of Iraq's WMD program:

March 2003: Weapons of mass destruction.
June 2003: Weapons of mass destruction programs.
October 2003: Weapons of mass destruction-related programs.
January 2004: Weapons of mass destruction-related program activities.

Slacktivist says this reminds him of

the Cheetoh-factor, in which every additional adjective makes the noun in question less true:

"cheese" = cheese

"processed cheese" = cheese, sort of

"processed cheese food" = cheese, sort of, plus other stuff that's not cheese

"processed cheese food snack product" = the food in question is orange, but contains no actual cheese.

A long time ago, I overheard someone in the grocery store ask where the Cheese Whiz was. I told him it was over in the poison aisle.
