About LinkBacks1) Threads about forum clichés. (I know, I know. Just wanted to get it out the way before some wiseacre says it.)
2) "Meet the new boss." Please, please spare us this lamely overused "Who's Next" reference. I'm willing to bet, Pete Townsend would say the average teabagger is a dolt.
3) "Faux outrage." Just write "fake" if you can't type 100% French.
4) "_____ much?" Goes without saying.
5) "The MSM." Of course there are media that are "in the mainstream" but when it becomes a label for "media I don't like" it's meaningless.

How about starting the sentence with, "So, what you're saying is...?"Age is an issue of mind over matter. If you don't mind, it doesn't matter. ~ Mark Twain

Bush ... Clinton ..... Bush.....Clinton.....
(They aren't Presidents any more)......
Now of course, if you wish to keep bringing them up, we will counter with MSM and our own cliches....
We do need a term for the combined cultural influence of academia, hollywood, the greenies, all the broadcast TV news and the Democrat party.
Got any nice summary other than "The Left?""“Guess what women are taking about? I don’t care if they’re stay-at-home mothers or working mothers or grandmothers. They’re talking about jobs and the legacy of debt that we are leaving our children.” Ann Romney

Any "clever" name for an individual or group of people. "Libbos, Rethugs, etc." "Shrub, Chimpy, Nobama, the Messiah" - all those do is bring down the level of discussion and show your partisanship.* (That includes "Post Turtle" whatever the fuck that is)
*disclaimer: I'm not above thinking "Dim Son" is funny. I'm allowing myself that exception.
As a Democrat, I take solace in the fact that the Republicans have nominated the guy who lost the nomination to the guy who lost the presidency to the guy who is now the President.

Lumping "academia" in with "all the broadcast TV news" is quaint at best, anti-erudite at worst.Davocrat®. The reason you're here.
