The dictionary defines Zionism as "Jewish Nationalism." The dictionary defines Nazism as a form of "Race-based Nationalism." The fact of the matter is that the British subjugated the Palestinian people, basically kicked them out of their homes, gave up the land to the Israelis and expected everything to be happy. Believe it or not, the Palestinians simply don't like being replaced like that. Moreover, they didn't take too kindly to the overt Israeli suppression and violence against them beginning in 1949 with the Irgun Gang and all of that. In the late 1960s, the violence really crested with the Arab-Israeli War over what was essentially Israeli apartheid against the Palestinians. The end of that war led to Yassir Arafat, who, in 1971, made a historic speech to the UN General Assembly, thusly thrusting Palestinian plight onto the international stage for the first time ever really. Throughout the 1970s both sides trade atrocities, although Israel's violence is state violence, backed by the U.S., that is aimed directly at suppressing the Palestinian people, civilian, terrorist, or whatever. Then there was that whole episode in Lebanon in the 1980s, the 1982 Israeli massacre of roughly 3 thousand Palestinian refugees at Shatila and Sabra - presided over by then-Israeli General Ariel Sharon. In the early 1990s, things are looking pretty good with Oslo and the Peace Accords... Arafat and then-Israeli PM Yitzkah Rabin winning the Nobel Peace Prize, things seemed good. Then, in 1...

Awesomenism is a philosophy defined by complete awesomeness. Many try to achieve awesomenism but Paul keeps on raising the bar, and so complete zen isn't able to be achieved.

That which is justly deserved. Can refer to either a punishment (more common usage) or a reward.

Pronounced like 'desserts', the sweet course at the end of a meal, but spelled like an arid land mass, e.g. 'The Sahara and Gobi deserts are big, hot, and dry'.

Failed comic whose anemic career inexplicably gained new life when he was cast as the anchor of the ersatz "news show", The Daily Show.

Catering to a niche audience of disaffected moonbats and chronically-unemployed basement dwellers, Jon became an instant darling among Leftist media critics and awards show judges by delving into the completely original, unchartered territory of misrepreseting and then making fun of the misrepresented version of the Bush Administration.

Jon's writers drew in a slavering following of easily amused pseudointellectuals through the simple expedient of substituting thoughtful satire (which is based in reality) with heavy-handed absurdity (which consists of setting up and knocking down strawmen). His followers recognized the difference, of course, but because the target was the usurper of the throne which they believed belonged to the Democrats by Divine Right, they deemed it irrelevant.

Jon endeared himself further to his faithful rebels-without-a-clue by appearing on a political opinion show and chastizing his hosts for....opining about politics. His mouthings of trite anti-establishment talking points cemented his celebrity status as a Champion Of Justice.

After every hundredth or so joke at the expense of Republicans, Jon will slip in a token jab at a Dem, just to make sure everyone realizes his heartfelt desire to be an equal opportunity lampooner

Jon often projects ...

The most prestigious award of the acclaimed Tennessee Technological University. It is awarded to students who radiate astounding amounts of excellence from the depths of their being and display raw bestial sexuality in even the smallest of undertakings. The award itself, in the hands of the master, can be used to summon droves of moist and wanting underage high-school girls.

Continuation in linguistical history of CBDT ("Can't be doin' that"): While it has enjoyed increased popularity at UMCP, its introduction into the University of Maryland colloquialism is thanks to the esteem efforts of University of Maryland, Baltimore County's High Cultural Emissary Sadif. For her work she is likely to receive the Nobel Peace Prize in Literature. It is usually performed in conjunction with a 'Cut that out'-esque motion to emphasize severity of how much you should really not be doing that.
