Green Lanternism

Share definition
A belief that political miracles are achieved by sheer will force. Proponents of the Green Lantern Theory have attributed failure and compromise to a lack of presidential willpower. Matthew Yglesias came up with the Green Lantern Theory of Geopolitics* to ridicule conservatives who claimed "the only thing limiting us is a lack of willpower" in foreign policy. The Green Lantern Theory was later applied to the Obama Administration who seemed to lack the will power to make the radical changes in policy such as universal health care, lowering medical costs, banking reform, and peaceful negotiations that people had hoped for., especially after the Republicans took over the US House in 2011.
Bernie supporters are big proponents of Green Lanternism and fail to recognize this kind of “Presidentmania” where the President can get anything done if he really wanted to, fails to take into account the significant amount of bureaucracy legal barriers, and the number players the president has to deal with such as legislators, special interests and Jurists who often do everything in their power to block the president from making these achievements.

A banterous lad who has the green power ring and fights with the Green Lantern Corps

"In brightest day, in blackest night,
No anti-banter shall escape my sight.
Let those who worship evil's might
Beware my banter--Green Lanter's light!"
"Wow this new lantern is such a lad. He's much cooler than Hal Jordan"
"That's because he engages in exquisite banter, he's a Green Lanter"

to dip one's testes in tzatziki sauce (cucumber sauce) and swing them back and forth hitting a loved one's forehead, just like swinging a lantern.

Newgrounds official "Token Black Guy." He is invited to all the parties and has a way with the women. Most people correct him about the spelling of his name, but he knows the correct spelling. He is one of the newest Green Lanterns and does not yet have a comic about him or has even made his presence known to the entire world. He is still considered a rookie, but hero in the making. He is one to the nicest guys you'll ever meet.
" I hope I was of some help to you. Good luck with this and I look forward to your next project. Take care."

"No chicks.

Only women, ladies, girls and/or the occasional attention whore."
