Funny Sounding Political Terms

This may be a repeat of a older post, but it still makes me chuckle. So I added pics to make it more relative.

Bafflegab - intentionally confusing jargon









Bloviate - to speechify pompously
Boondoggle - wasteful or crooked government-funded project








Filibuster - long-winded oration whose purpose is to obstruct the passage of a particular piece of legislation
Flugie - rule that only helps the rule maker
Gerrymander- to redraw an election district for politically motivating reasons
Gobbledygook - roundabout, nonsensical explanation
Mollycoddle - wimpy politician










Mugwump- political maverick
Roorback- invented rumor intended to smear an opponent
Snollygoster - politician who puts office holding ahead of principles














Wonk - nerd drawn to political details

from the George Book of Political Lists

Kissinger Doing the Weather
Back in the early 90s, I awoke with a wicked hang over one morning. As I sat on the floor watching the morning news, I swore I saw Harold Kissinger doing the weather. No one believed me. Professors discounted me. I have been vindicated.
