fairy-dusting

An act of protest in the name of Gay Rights where a hater is showered with glitter. For best effect, rainbow colored glitter is used while loudly announcing “STOP THE HATE.”
Sam: Saw all these Con-serves posting comments about what a criminal Robert Erickson is for fairy-dusting Newt Gingrich and his wife.

Ella: The irony--sprinkling them with glitter on he same day the story broke about Newt Blingrich’s enormous bill at Tiffany's.

Sam: Oh, maybe that’s why Newt was smiling in the photo–he must have thought Erickson was a Tiffany Rep declaring him their millionth customer.

Tarantino

Verb form of The Tarantino.

Alternate name the US Senate filibuster because it kills bills. On her self-named show on MSNBC, Rachel Maddow felt that the word filibuster puts people to sleep, and the issue of filibuster abuse was too important to have a sleepy electorate.
When they Tarantino a bill, you could also call it constitutional blockage because the filibuster is like an impacted colon in the body politic. The Senate needs a good cleanse of the obstructionist! Then, maybe things will get moving!

political-polly-parrot

Often pronounced with a parrot squawk at the end (rahahk)

Also known as a triple-P

A political-polly-parrot is a person who:
1. Espouses the same right-wing talking points on any media available.
2. Gets all of his or her opinions from right wing media–mostly television and radio.

Both types of triple-P’s repeat the same whole phrases.
For example, on health care every triple-P was crying:

“Don’t cram this bill down our throats.”

“We have to start over.”

Reconciliation is a sleazy trick.”

“...Death panels...”

“...a plot to kill grandma ...”

“...27-hundred page bill...”
Sue: The political-polly-parrots-rahahk have done every dirty trick in the book to tarantino health care; now they are whining about ordinary House and Senate rules.

Bill: Yeah, all they did on health care when they had total control of everything is to pass an unfunded medicare drug benefit with a donut hole big enough to swallow up both grandma and grandpa!
