Late-night blogging...

In one of the more random, meaningless blogs Alterdestiny has ever seen...

D over at Lawyers, Guns & Money refers to the Iraq mess as "The 'Raq".

My simple question - why has this not happened sooner, and gained greater creedence? After all, even during the war, vets referred to "The 'Nam", and since that's the only war we've declared as the United States that is longer than the current war, why not just go with "The 'Raq"?
