oath-tacking

The act of strategically evading, distorting, or sidestepping a sworn oath—especially by public officials—often through legal gymnastics, political maneuvering, or rhetorical misdirection. Unlike oath-taking, which implies duty and honor, oath-tacking is about pretending to uphold principles while undermining them for personal or ideological gain.

Brown-Tack

An unpleasant, sticky brown substance used to glue leaves, grit and grass clippings to the underside of someone's shoe. Like its blue-coloured namesake, it is most easily picked up, (sadly only by conscientious dog owners), by rolling another piece of brown-tack from the same pile over it. Dog dirt.

Hey, buddy, what's that smell? Dang, someone must have stood in some brown-tack!
