Red Shift

n. The political change of the United States in favor of conservatism, specifically relating to the 2004 election, with the re-election of George Bush, and the loss of John Kerry, the great gains for Republicans in the House and Senate, and the voting to ammend the constitutions of 11 states outlawing gay marriage.

Not saying it is good or bad, in fact, for me, Red Shift is a mixed blessing (damn my centrist view).

(this makes reference to the red states being pro-GOP, and the Blue, pro-Dems)

See Blue Shift
The Reagan era was a period of red shift.

Female blame shifting

The process by which a female member of the species homo sapiens transfers responsibility for her actions to an unrelated party. Curiously, this seems to affect others of the species into believing that the newly-blamed individual is truly at fault and that the blamer is in fact the victim.
"So, after she drove her car through the Denny's, punched a paraplegic and shat in the coffee maker, she said it was her husband's fault because he's been ignoring her?"

"Yep. And they didn't press charges."

"Female blame shifting. It's a powerful thing."

shifty

Someone who uses their poon-tang as bait and reels you in with latent promises of them letting you poon their tang who then relocates their tang to a un-poonable location... so while their tang isn't necessarily un-pooned you certainly aren't the tanger.
