carpet bagger

In the post-US Civil War South, carpetbaggers were Northerners who moved to the South to take advantage of the unstable social, financial, and political climate. They were called "carpetbaggers" to imply that they were such poor, transient characters that they merely moved south carrying all their possessions in a carpet-bag. A carpet-bag, by the way, isn't a bag for carrying carpet, but a soft-sided suitcase or satchel made out of carpet.

Today, the phrase refers to someone who moves to a new location for opportunistic reasons.

Hillary is a carpet bagger.

Badger Spotting

Frequenting parks, commons or other public grounds at night for the explicit purpose of picking-up homosexual men in order to have sex with them.

The conservative MP from Dorset was found badger spotting in Clapham Common last week. I guess his wife wasn’t aware of his affinity for nature.

jack knife barber

A person who performs illegal abortions. This term is used in the Jethro Tull song "Cross-Eyed Mary," which is about a very young prostitute.
"She dines in Hampstead village on expense accounted gruel,
And the jack knife barber drops her off at school."

Mary had an unexpected surprise, so she paid a visit to the jack knife barber.
