He used very ambiguous language which he must have known was likely to be read that way.

I disagree. This is like reading "niggardly" as "like a nigger" and blaming the author for using the word.

Niggardly is a widely understood word with a long history though. I've never heard of any term like "vietnam times veteran" that did not refer to someone who fought in vietnam.
