Corpromise 

Pronounced: Corp-ro-mise

When politicians, decision makers, or individuals compromise their own personal values in order to bow to corporate greed.
1) Recently a plan was announced to limit the number of servings of potatoes in school provided lunches to two servings per week. The goal was to help improve children's diets and foster a healthier lifestyle. The senate voted this plan down due to pressure from the potato industry and lobbyists. This is an example of corpromising.

2) Today at work I corpromised my values by not speaking up as I knew my political opinions differed from those of my manager.

Corprolite 

(n.) A mashup of two words: Corporate, and Coprolite, which is a fossilized turd.

Used to describe entrenched middle management common to many workplaces, especially those members who have been in their jobs too long to be dismissed despite adding nothing more valuable to the company than would an ancient piece of rock-hard poop.
Employee 1: Hey, how'd your new idea go over with the big CEO?

Employee 2: It never got to him. Some corprolite decided he wanted things to stay the same around here and threw away my memo.

Passing middle manager, to himself: Corprolite? Sounds like new business jargon. I'll have to make sure I use that in my next presentation to the board!

2/7 Compromise 

The 2/7 compromise was established in 1818, to allow residents of the state known as Illinois to be considered partial people. The compromise was created after much arguing in meeting with Illinois and Wisconsin residents. (although most of the arguing was between the FIBs). After 14 days of nonstop meetings, the 2/7 compromise was created. Although many Wisconsin residents disagreed with allowing them privileges, the majority of them agreed that they need a couple rights.

The 2/7 compromise includes the following rights to FIBs:
* The right to drive on Wisconsin freeways, but must pay speeding tickets regularly.

* The right to vote in Illinois State elections.
* The right to Kenosha.
* The right to visit Mars Cheese Castle.

Although these rights were established to allow Illinois residents to be considered partial people, it does not cover FIBs from Itasca. Unfortunately they were unable to show at the meeting and thus were not allowed to take part in the compromise.
-Why is that FIB driving on I94
-They won that in the 2/7 Compromise
- Oh yeah that's right.

Texas is categorized as a swing state in presidential elections, but has voted for Republicans more times than for Democrats in recent history. As such, as demographics change political alignments, some Democrats believe that Texas will vote blue, or Democratic, due to their Hispanic and African American voters, who often align themselves with the Democratic Party's liberal wing.

Blexas has been cited as possible in the upcoming decades, but only if Democrats continue to win the Hispanic vote in bigger margins.
Democrat 1: What is your prediction for the 2024 presidential election?
Democrat 2: Well uh, Blexas!
Democrat 1: You've been saying that since 2008 though.

Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
