Republican Google term to the American political lexicon.
Thanks for forcing the release of all those Clinton emails. So far you haven't found anything incriminating, but you HAVE highlighted the fact that Sydney Blumenthal thinks Justice Clarence Thomas should be impeached, and that he heard from Republican sources that the Republicans in the House are "repelled by John Boeher's personal behavior" and think that he is "louche, alcoholic, lazy, and without any commitment to any principle." Also that he is " He is careworn and threadbare, banal and hollow, holding nobodys enduring loyalty."
HAH!
Okay, so let's look at the list of which conservative politicians pop up when you Google the following terms:
"LOUCHE" --John Boehner
"Lying sack of dog mess" --Glen Beck
"Big fat backside" -- Karl Rove
"Turdblossom" --Karl Rove
Any others that you know of?...

(3,457 posts)The campaign for the neologism "santorum" started with a contest held in May 2003 by Dan Savage, a sex columnist and LGBT rights activist. Savage asked his readers to create a definition for the word "santorum"[1][2] in response to then-U.S. Senator Rick Santorum's views on homosexuality, and comments about same sex marriage. In his comments, Santorum had stated that "In every society, the definition of marriage has not ever to my knowledge included homosexuality. That's not to pick on homosexuality. It's not, you know, man on child, man on dog, or whatever the case may be."[3] Savage announced the winning entry, which defined "santorum" as "the frothy mixture of lube and fecal matter that is sometimes the byproduct of anal sex".
