Gahmuret's definitions

slogan

A short, "catchy" phrase, small enough to fit on a button, t-shirt, or a bumper sticker, usually used as a substitute for thought. Often degenerates into a mantra, usually diffused with facts.

"Here's our slogan: 'When Clinton lied, no one died.'"

"Yes they did. They died in Somalia and Bosnia."

didn't get the memo

To be or to remain uninformed, especially about something that is common knowledge to everyone else.

Gott mit Unser

German for "God is with us." Said to have been inscribed on German soldiers' belt buckles during World War II (which Germany lost).

'Jesus was a liberal' is the liberal version of 'Gott mit Unser'.

Barbara Olson

Ann Coulter's friend and mentor, also an author and television "talking head". Ms Olson died on September 11, 2001 when the plane she was on was hijacked and slammed into the Pentagon, belying the widespread liberal myth that Ms Coulter didn't lose anyone dear to her that day (Ms Coulter has been increasingly shrill and combative, especially on the subject of Islam, ever since).

Barbara Olson wrote two excellent anti-Clinton books, _Hell to Pay_ and _The Final Days_.

Religious Reich

Not content to refer to those who disagree with them as the "Religious Right" or "Christian Right", some moonbats demonize their adversaries further by referring to them as the "Religious Reich".

As far as I can tell, Isaac Bonewits was the one who coined the term 'Religious Reich'.

conservative bias

What liberals accuse any news outlet or commentator who disagrees with them of having (liberals usually deny the existence of liberal bias, since they like to think they're too open-minded to be biased). The term is most frequently directed at Fox News Channel, Rush Limbaugh, and anyone who shows even a hint of civility to Ann Coulter.

Some ultra-left commentators such as Amy Goodwin, Eric Alterman, and Noam Chomsky have tried to prove that mainstream media, widely known for its liberal bias, actually leans to the right, but mostly on the grounds that it doesn't lean as far to the left as they do.

"I never listen to talk radio. There's just too much conservative bias!"

"But if you don't listen, how would you know?"

"Uh, well. . . hey, here's my bus!"

corporate media

A term used by people (i.e., communists), who think that all corporations are evil, therefore news outlets which corporations own are untrustworthy. These people are usually so far to the left that they fail to notice that the mainstream media leans to the left. This is especially ironic, since it is this leftist, liberal bias which makes mainstream networks untrustworthy -- not its "corporate ownership."

"Amy Goodman likes to whine a lot about 'corporate media.'"
