mitteration

mitteration

Speaking like Mitt Romney. Boring, pointless droning on political topics with minimal show of emotion and frozen facial expression as he lies and changes political stances from minute to minute. Listening first produces a zombie-like state followed by unconsciousness.

A mitteration:

I am strongly in favor of a woman's right to choose.

(Next day) Unless she chooses an abortion.

(Two days later) Or to marry another woman.

(Three days late) Women shouldn't need to choose anything, they should be subservient to their husbands.

PolLunatic fringe

PolLunatic Fringe - those candidates for office who only have a vague contact with reality.

Palin, Santorum and Bachmann are so out of touch with reality they're charter members of the PolLunatic Fringe.

Default Date

Default date is not at the beginning of August when the US runs out of money as most people think. It's actually more of a "guys night out" form of male bonding.

The Default Date is when Boehner invites Cantor out to dinner and a movie at the end of July 2011 instead of working on the budget.

Powerful pause

A long period of silence or confused babble in response to a simple question. Done to allow the person to come up with some kind of desperate, plausible response.

Denoting that the Republican presidential candidate has no clue how to answer the question except to use one of the Republican's stock phrases like "President Obama did it wrong." Also known as brain fart, senior moment, Santorum Stumble, Michele Melt-down, Gingrich Gaffe, Mitt Muddle, a Rick Rest-period, etc.

When the Herminator got asked about his possible inappropriate sexual behavior with former female staffers in the National restaurant Association, he got really quiet for a long time. Then he said, "I thought they wanted me to hold the pepperoni!" Later he called that a "powerful pause."
