More Spinspeak from the Campaign Trail
global test = delayspeak for we covert appeasers carry a Big Stick and will smite our sworn enemies mightily as soon as France and the kleptocrats in the U.N. say they approve.
ovalitis = cutespeak for presidential isolation from the world by the bureaucracy, relatives and the White House staff.
kitchen table = nostalgic classwartalk for the ratty old piece of furniture piled with unpaid bills that most Americans sit around beneath a single bare flickering light bulb hanging from the ceiling while tax cuts are given to the rich.
A plan = gift-wrap packagetalk for a “real,” usually secret or sparsely detailed, no-pain solution for any major problem. Such plans usually have little or no cost because they surely will be offset by canceling “tax breaks for the rich," “eliminating government waste and inefficiency” and canceling handouts to the “special interests.”
