A Rush Insight to Ponder: "You live your life according to the traditions and the institutions and traditions that you were raised with and you're trying to teach your kids and you simply try to hold onto these traditions and institutions that have defined decency and goodness and character and you're trying to pass them down." [Rush on the decency, goodness, and character shown by passing down to our kids ten trillion dollars in debt.] Dittohead Word of the Day Dittohead Definition Greatest Hits<<< What's YOUR favorite? Dittohead 1. A parishioner of the Church of Rush, an unaware victim of severe chronic Irony deficiency (maybe prescription Drugs would help.) 2. The charming and Colorful language of Rush Radioland. Press Release: SherWright.com Congratulates the First Woman Native Dittohead Speaker Candidate for High Office Upcoming words: Poster Girl, Tough on Oil Companies, Business Travel, Trailer Trash, Abstinence Only. Stay tuned for Alaska Family Values Week! September 8, 2008 Tomorrow's Word: Three Rules of Dittohead Politics. Compelling 1. Acclaimed, as in “Sarah Palin gave a compelling Speech at the Convention. 2. On the topic of forced compliance by means of Criminalization and Prison, for example “Sarah Palin gave a compelling Speech at the convention.” September 7, 2008 Good Cop Bad Cop 1. A conventional way for Torturers to break a POW. 2. A way for torturers to break into a POW’s Convention. September 6, 2008 Box Torture imposed on McCain, for which he deserves our deep sympathy and Respect. Specifically, he Heroically resisted being boxed in to supporting a hard Right running mate for days on end, right up the point he realized that he needs right wing turnout for Victory. September 5, 2008 Right Side of History Having a Candidate whose Beliefs reflect Historical Trends, for example Global Warming, dwindling Oil supplies, Exploding Deficits, Increasing Income Disparity, and America’s eroding Leadership in Science. Our Dittohead running mate is Perfectly qualified, because she’ll reflect these Liberal notions Right back to where they came from! September 4, 2008 Executive Experience A Job qualification gained by Running something. One alternative is to run a Presidential Campaign, which is like founding a multi-hundred million dollar business based on getting millions of people to Pay without actually getting anything in return, and then having to also get tens of millions of Votes. Alternatively, you can have a Rich Spouse who buys you a House in a State with an open seat (see Arizona), or get 120,000 votes to be governor (see Alaska). September 3, 2008 Relief The New Focus of the GOP convention because of the Hurricane, specifically relief that Bush won’t be showing up (see Party Crashing). September 2, 2008 Arizona The State with the geography most Perfect for qualifying its senator (see McCain) to Inspect Hurricane preparations. September 1, 2008 Labor Day Our celebration of the contributions of individual Workers. Not their sweat on the Job, of course (as if!) We're celebrating their pension fund contributions. Anything that flows that much Money into the Stock Market deserves an annual party. August 31, 2008 Alaska The best State in the union for Politicians. Everywhere else you have to fret about who to Tax. In Alaska the equivalent worry is one constituency getting Angry because another constituency got more of the Oil company royalty Money that it’s your Job to dole out. August 30, 2008 Popularity A quality measured by the size and Energy of crowds like those at Florida Recount locations in 2000 and Iraq Victory celebrations in 2004. Of course, popularity morphs into Celebrity (a bad thing) when it goes to the Extreme (i.e. a Democrat is involved). August 29, 2008 Party Crashing 1. Boorish behavior, for example trying to upstage the other Party’s convention. Throughout America’s rough and tumble Political History it’s never been done before. Leave it to today’s GOP to be Number 1! 2. A succinct description of what eight years of Bush has done to today’s GOP. August 28, 2008 Affair A Sign of Moral Disintegration (see John Edwards and especially Bill Clinton) to be Prosecuted (see Impeachment) unless it’s your ticket to trading up to a Rich Spouse (see McCain). The only down side is that she might have too many homes to keep track of. (If so, mention you were a POW). August 27, 2008 POW A Jail Experience that can be Ironically played as a get out of jail Free card, as McCain has amply (VERY amply) shown. It stands for Playing On Weepies to Plaster Over Weaknesses. August 24-26, 2008 Forgetful Something that happens when you get old, like forgetting how to get home or, in Extreme cases, even how many homes you have. August 23, 2008 Maverick Being full of Surprises, like being down on Negative Campaigning and then a few seconds later becoming the king of Mud and Slime. August 22, 2008 Obama The Liberal Presidential Candidate with the name meaning Operative for the Black Agenda, Muslims, and the Anti-Christ. August 21, 2008 Fictional A Conservative Author’s Favorite kind of Book, since you’re expected to make things up. August 20, 2008 Mud The original writing medium as practiced by the Sumerians on cuneiform tablets. Conservative Authors still use it as the writing medium for their Political Books. August 19, 2008 Hatchet 1. The implement Washington used to chop down the cherry tree, an Act he refused to Lie about. 2. In contrast, a kind of Job done every four years by Conservative Authors. August 18, 2008 Author A title one gains simply from writing a Book. It applies equally to giants like Tolstoy and Hemingway and, also in the category of Fiction, Swift Boat Slimers. August 17, 2008 Testosterone A Drug certified by the FDA to be highly effective in formulating Conservative Foreign Policy Strategy. August 16, 2008 Tough Talk Bush’s second favorite form of Diplomacy (or lack thereof). Invasion is Number 1. August 15, 2008 Pro-Life Being ready to take Action to Defend Life, for example the pro-life anthrax Scientist who went postal on pro-Choice Senate Leaders. August 14, 2008 Conserve Action taken by Citizens to use less Energy. While Foreign Countries use many fewer resources than Americans because their citizens act more Green, Conservatives have Consistently pointed out the Truth that Conservation has no Real Policy role in the US (see Cheney) since it requires that a Politician Talk to Voters about Sacrifice, for example sacrificing a few minutes a year to Inflate tires. August 13, 2008 Inflate 1. To add air, for example to inflate a tire to improve Gas mileage (see Obama). 2. A kind of Lying, for example to inflate the benefits of Offshore Drilling (see McCain). August 12, 2008 Recall Bringing Congress back into session to Vote on Energy Bills, like McCain wants to do (hoping Voters won’t recall the energy votes he skipped when Congress was still in session.) August 11, 2008 Target Something that won’t be around very long (Trust us - this is a core Competence). This is particularly true for Deficit targets, which have routinely Exploded every year Bush has been President. August 10, 2008 Rattle 1. The sound the straw makes at the bottom of the milkshake. 2. The sound McCain wants to hear echoing around the land as audio affirmation that we’ve Successfully SLUURRRPed up the Oil reserves that prior Generations Passed Down for the benefit of Posterity. August 9, 2008 Olympics A nice (and rare) chance to see foreigners on Television who aren’t rioting because of us. August 8, 2008 Suit An outfit, like the McCain suit that Rove has been wearing to Campaign events while the actual Candidate is apparently on Vacation (or maybe he’s been Kidnapped). August 7, 2008 Victimhood Whining that things are unfair, like Clarence playing the Race Card during his Supreme Court Confirmation. McCain's a double victim. Not only has Obama sucked up all of his former Celebrity, Barack's dollar Bill comment gained him the unfair benefit of Voters being reminded of his Color. August 6, 2008 Celebrity People who are Similar to Britney and Paris when they’re Democrats and Reagan and Schwarzenegger when they’re Republicans. August 5, 2008 Press Release. They’re Going To predict that someone will do something in the Future, like when Obama predicted “they're going to try to say…he doesn't look like all the Presidents on the dollar Bills.” This prediction came True almost instantly when McCain reminded Voters that Obama is black by accusing him of playing the Race Card. August 4, 2008 Bottom of the Deck A sneaky way of Cheating, like McCain’s playing the Race Card from the bottom of the deck by accusing Obama of playing the Race Card from the bottom of the deck. August 3, 2008 Mark of Rove Like fingerprints on Glass, an indication that a certain GOP Operative has been working his Magic. For example, the Iraq War’s mark of Rove is as ever-present as Kilroy was Here in WWII. The latest MoR venue is McCain Campaign ads (see Negative). August 2, 2008 Black Agenda A major Obama Weakness. GOP Operatives can Talk about how he’ll use the White House to push the black agenda, and any way he responds we can say he’s playing the Race Card. August 1, 2008 Similar Things or People that have so many characteristics in common that they might as well be twins like (as McCain has pointed out) Britney and Barack. July 31, 2008 Food Stamps 1. A Liberal program by which Taxes are Immorally stolen from the hard-working productive Citizens with Jobs and given as Welfare to unemployed slackers. 2. A program that kept from starving the liberal-hating Dittohead who Shot up the liberal Church because he Hated liberals (and also because he was pissed at expiration of his food stamp eligibility due to Limits imposed by Conservatives). July 30, 2008 Inflame To Inspire and Incite to Action. It’s the stated objective of Rush’s Show, a goal recently achieved when one of his Dittoheads Shot up a Church because it was Liberal. July 29, 2008 Petulant The proper attitude for a Presidential Candidate (see McCain) when his opponent is hogging the spotlight. July 28, 2008 Asleep At The Switch The preferred operating mode for our Government Officeholders (since we won’t take Blame for them doing the Wrong thing). July 27, 2008 Told You So! 1. The favorite taunt of the playground know-it-all. 2. The heart of McCain’s Campaign Strategy. His principal Message to Voters is that only he and Bush were Right about the Surge and he’s not stopping until everyone on Earth agrees! July 26, 2008 History A summary of events that reveals a Truth, like when McCain said in 2003 “there’s no history of clashes that are violent between Sunnis and Shiites.” July 25, 2008 Ally A Foreign County that fully agrees with US Policy (including Aspirational Time Horizons), as opposed to an Al-lie, a supposed ally who spreads unTruths about Democrat Cut and Run Surrender timetables. July 24, 2008 End A shorthand way of saying “light at the end of the tunnel,” the Aspirational Time Horizon for Iraq withdrawal expressed by McCain in 2003 when he said “the end is very much in sight.” July 23, 2008 Aspirational Time Horizon A Planning criterion employed as an essential component of any reasonable and well-conceived Military Strategy, as opposed to the Democrat Party’s Cut and Run timetable for Surrender. This is True even if, by coincidence, the time periods happen to be similar. July 22, 2008 Whiners Citizens who see their glass (and Stock portfolio) as Half Empty due to the Mental Recession Hoax. July 21, 2008 Hoax A Truth that, if picked up by the public at large, would Cost Rush some Money. July 14-20, 2008 (Vacation). Romantic How you Talk about your Love, like Bush when he described the ”in some ways romantic” task of “confronting danger.” He was talking about War. July 13, 2008 Mental Recession 1. The term used by McCain’s Campaign Co-Chair to describe the current Economic condition. 2. The condition demonstrated by McCain’s Co-char by saying this. July 11-12, 2008 Advantage Something that provides a benefit, for example the GOP’s Health Plan. Why that name (considering it Costs more without providing better care?) It’s that big advantage in HMO Campaign Contributions, duh! July 10, 2008 Leave Behind A President’s Legacy, like Bush’s when he said “one of the things I will leave behind is a multilateralism to deal with tyrants, so problems can be solved diplomatically.” He’s gotten a Head start on this legacy because he Left Behind multilateralism (see Cowboy) and Diplomacy (see Invasion) years ago. July 9, 2008 Offshore Drilling A Source of Oil that carries an Special (and delicious) benefit when it’s off the shore of a Blue State. July 8, 2008 Experience The number of Opportunities a Presidential Candidate has had to advocate Bombing as a Foreign Policy Strategy. July 7, 2008 Habeas Corpus The Legal Tenet established in Medieval times that putting someone in Prison requires annoying paperwork. With those medievals being too Liberal for our taste, we’ve taken to calling it habeas corpse. July 6, 2008 US That constant reminder to all that us Patriots are the only True Americans. July 5, 2008 United Everyone having the same Vision (as long as it's ours). Anything else is Chaos. July 4, 2008 Independence Day First celebrated by not sending Tax dollars to London, now celebrated by sending Gas dollars to Riyadh. July 3, 2008 Comprehensive Thorough, like how we cover the whole spectrum of ensuring that only Loyal Bushies have a Shot at getting a DOJ Job (see Political Hiring ) and Keeping it (see Protect Failure and Fire Prosecutors). July 2, 2008 Civil Service The replacement for the old spoils system, when Politics determined who was Hired or Fired. We like the New system because Future Democrat Presidents won’t get to kick out the Loyal Bushies we’ve put in place to run American Justice. July 1, 2008 Precedent 1. (Archaic) The Supreme Court term for settled Law. 2. Our new Supreme Court's term for a Mulligan. All Prior Words! The blog Archive! Dittohead Definition Greatest Hits! |
