tenther 

an individual who understands that the powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

"Health care isn't mentioned in the constitution, so the people of the States - and not the Federal Government - have the right to make their own decisions about how they want to receive and allocate funds for health care."

"What about voting rights, product safety codes and the federal highway system?"

"The people of the States understand that the constitution does not prohibit voting rights, which are reserved to the people. Safety awareness and protection, as well as highway construction and infrastructure maintenance have been provided by private individuals, and entities without necessitating interventions from the federal government."

"So you're a tenther then."

"Absolutely."

tenther 

A self-defined constitutional "scholar" who claims that the tenth amendment granting authority to state governments, effectively makes all federal laws unconstitutional, or at least ones that he doesn't like.

"Health care isn't mentioned in the constitution, so it must be unconstitutional."

"What about voting rights, product safety codes and the federal highway system?"

"Obama isn't trying to change those, so I suppose they're alright."

"So you're a tenther then."

Tether Balling 

When your balls are hanging extremely low, most likely on a hot day, and you shake your hips side to side until your balls wrap around your penis resembling a Tether Ball Pole. This must be done with no hands, making it an accomplishment worth sharing with all your friends.

Sam came in from playing soccer when it was 100 degrees out, took off his gym shorts. He quickly shook his hips side to side repeatedly until his balls had wrapped around this dick. He was proud because he had just done some extreme Tether Balling.

Tenthead 

A word denoting a typical liberal, likely to support the Democratic party without question and soften the edge of any leftist movement that threatens the establishment. Derives from the desire for the American parties (Democrats in particular) to be 'Big Tent'.
Tentheads often try to disarm any sort of radical movement in the name of 'keeping peace' and then go on to cry about needing the kind of change those radical movements would have brought.

Also synonymous with 'Shitlib' and 'Libtard' (though Tenthead is more often used in leftist circles.)

Hillary Clinton is such a tenthead.

Fucking tentheads ruin any movement that actually wants to bring about radical change.
