Svetlana:
Jeepers, Boris, every journalist who writes an article criticizing our president seems to get knocked-off, put into an insane assylum or simply disappears from the face of the earth!
Boris:
Well, what do you expect, Svety? Our president wants the world to think that his not-so-hidden dictatorship is really a democracy . . .
Svetlana: Hmmff ! Everyone knows that our so-called "freedoms" here are just a sham! He's just putting on a good show . . .
Boris:
That's right.... We live in an imacracy. Remember in the old days when everyone voted imacratically?
Svetlana:
Yeah .. for the ONLY candidate!
Both:
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha! Ah, the simpler days ...
Boris: But you know, Svety, we shouldn't worry too much about these journalists being killed. Afterall, in other countries ---with *real* democracies--- dead people show-up on the voter registration rolls all the time!
Both:
ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha

Get the imacracymug. "Wow! Where'd you get this old sign that says, 'Colored, Seated in Rear?" That's GREAT negrobilia. Is it authentic?"

Get the negrobiliamug. STANK TANK (as in a smelly THINK TANK):
A statement or way of thinking which characterizes the quintessential right-wing negative view of almost anything which is the least bit progressive, fair, logical, equitable, humanistic, or generally helpful to the common public-at-large.
Stank-tanking stretches right-wing tenets —even moderate ones— to a point which can only be described as irrational, unreasonable, cynical, grotesque, stupid, and often downright indecent (which, ironically, negates the "traditional moral values" right-wing tenet and renders it hypocritical). Usually racist, sexist, condescending and mocking of the down-trodden. Always short-sighted, selfish and narrow-minded.
