Pandering 

A manipulative device used by politicians to agree and support the popular view of a particular group or groups of people in order secure their vote. Although the philosophy or interest of this particular politician is not necessarily in tune with that particular group, he or she will appear as though he or she agrees with a particular group, particularly during the election season, in order to win his/her sear.

The interest of particular groups may be somewhat farfetched, including creating Utopia's for them to live in or to achieve the so called "rainbows" and "butterflies" they so want to have. But, if that is what the educated politician has to agree with in order to win on election day, then he/she will do it.
Gullible Citizen: I want the government to help us pay our mortgages, pay for our kids to go to college, and help pay our utility bills.

Politician's mind: This may be pure pandering because there is NO way the government should or can take care of any of those requests; but, i guess I'll have to say "sure thing".

Pathering 

Not big enough for a party, but not small enough for a gathering. Alcohol must be consumed and music must be played for it to be considered a pathering.

vagina pandering

Pandering to anyone and everyone with a vagina. Chick flicks, feminism, oprah, and commercials that tell women how hard it is to be a mom are all vagina pandering. Often it involves flattery, more often it involves a perception of vagina owning people being oppressed. But most often it involves flattering vagina owning people by telling them how strong they are for putting up with oppression. Some men vagina pander to get vagina. Advertisers vagina pander to sell things.
Vagina panderers desperately want women to have bad taste, because then they will buy anything so long as it flatters their ego.

This article is so rife with vagina pandering, i can feel the menstruation spewing out of my nose.

Paltering 

Paltering (gerund or verb) and palter (verb) refer to an extremely common practice of lying and deceiving with true statements. Probably the most common form of paltering (especially among politicians and interviewees on media) is answering a challenging or embarrassing question with a statement which is true but does not address the original question. Frustrated questioners sense the lie, but instead of identifying the paltering, often rephrase and repeat their original question. Strangely, very few know this word and its phenomenon, thinking a lie must be only a misstatement of fact. Check out a long scholarly article on paltering at www.apa.org/pubs/journals/releases/psp-pspi0000081.pdf .
By subtle paltering, the witness at a Senate hearing avoided all the challenging and important questions that Senators directed his way, leaving the Senators with a sense of confusion and frustration.
