bad actors: the international “thugs” who run circles around Obama, in all his “lassitude.” (see below). An absolute duality between the white hats (our allies) and the black hats (everyone else).
comprehensive tax reform: tax cuts for the wealthy and for businesses.
dynamism: what will get “unleashed” (see below) once Obama is sent back to Kenya. In Tea Party parlance, the opposite of “cronyism.”
factotum: any Dem political appointee or administration official or spokesperson.
lassitude: anything short of an armed, unilateral, interventionist American response to foreign conflicts.
The Obama matrix: supposedly the never-never land of smug complacency and self-righteousness that all Dems have fallen into.
patient-centered health care: euphemism for insurance company-centered health care. The core of this rhetoric are vouchers, which of course will never go far enough to cover anything. Naturalizes the voucher approach as consumer choice, whereas it will really amount to very limited choices, defined by the insurance-health care-Big Pharm complex.
simplified tax code: flat tax.
streamlining: euphemism for gutting environmental laws that lead to increased construction costs.
trampled rights: the result of any laws, regulations or policies the Tea Party opposes. By definition, any “natural right” to do as you please is “trampled” by “red tape”.
unleash: the glorious liberation of American “dynamism” that will result from “streamlined” regulations, “comprehensive tax reform” and “market forces” . What Keystone will do for oil, deregulation for the finance and banking industries, and relaxation of environmental laws for the Koch brothers.
