Walter Jones, the Republican congressman for North Carolina, is thankfully changing his mind.
In March 2003, Jones led the campaign to change the name of french fries to "freedom fries."
"Asked by a reporter for the North Carolina News and Observer about the name-change campaign - an idea Mr Jones said at the time came to him by a combination of God's hand and a constituent's request - he replied: 'I wish it had never happened.'
"Although he voted for the war, he has since become one of its most vociferous opponents on Capitol Hill, where the hallway outside his office is lined with photographs of the 'faces of the fallen'."
We can only hope he is not the last one to come from In The Dark and Into The Light.
