"DOES IT WORK FOR YOU?"

Good mornin Citizens! Being that it is only Monday, I won't tax your brain cells to much..... Ever stop to listen to a Politician talk? It isn't so much what they say but more what they don't say and the terminology they use, to not say it. It is actually very funny, if you take the time to pay attention to what is really being said. So with that in mind lets start our own dictionary of hot air. I will start it off with the term.....
REFORM.....what is of note here is that they don't use the term "FIX or MAKE RIGHT" and usually this term is going to cost you some money.
REVISIT.....this is a nifty one. Usually meaning that the REFORM doesn't work and hasn't generated enough money.
Now it is your turn.....help me out here!

Just an after thought here. Politicos have raised "NO SPEAK" almost to an art form. Maybe North Adams State Teachers College could teach a class for aspiring politicos. It would have to be handled in the foreign language department, along with Ebonics, Jibberish, and Cajon.

How about INTELLIGENCE: Proof of what they don't know and how to make it look like what they want to be true really is.

Now you get it! The lexicon of modern politics has gone into the silly state.
VITAL TOOL.....something illegal but justified for personal gain.
EXPLOIT FOR POLITICAL GAIN.....Used when trying to sidestep answering an embarrassing question
