Get the tully mug.(VERB) to ignore the fact that a particular action was a crime, and focus instead on possible problems it may cause for the perpetrator. Named for Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord (1754-1838), who famously remarked of Napoleon's murder of the Duc d'Enghein, "It was worse than a crime... It was a blunder."
Sometimes this is misspelled "tallyranding." It's not certain that Talleyrand ever said it; it was probably attributed by his many enemies.
WHY IT'S BAD
In March 1804, when Napoleon Bonaparte was consul of the French Republic, he became aware of the fact that a leader of the royalist opposition was hiding out across the border of France. Napoleon had him kidnapped, brought back to Strasbourg, "tried," and put to death. The unfortunate young man was never accused of doing anything illegal; he had not violated the laws of the French Republic because he was not in France, and when he had been, he was serving the previous government.
Whoever actually said "...worse than a crime...a blunder" was ignoring the fact that it was a crime to murder an innocent person, and focusing instead on the fact that it was DUMB. In some cases, such as this one, it's a reasonable thing to do; but if it becomes a habit then moral judgment is deliberately suspended.
It's the asshole's substitute for moral fiber.

There is altogether too much Talleyranding going on. This wasn’t a blunder; it was a crime.

Get the Talleyranding mug.A rural Australian school that offers education to the local rednecks and community inbreds. It has a very strong reputation of being a complete copy cat and an underdog of Innisfail state college, yet it still fails to strive as it uses Tropical Cyclone Yasi as an excuse for typical slacking off in the school's education system and although it is still capable of providing funding for formal uniforms in an attempt to make Tully kids look successful.
Tully state high school is also known for the 'Tully high school pool' (a large pool of water new the schools facilities after failures to dig a drain) and Tully Memes ( a facebook page dedicated to making memes about Tully)
