Word of the Day

Today's Word(s) of the Day is (are) a personal favorite(s) of The Liberal Lumberjack.  If you've heard it (them) before, you will surely recognized their inherent irony and absurdity right away.

"Constitutional Conservative" (n.)

An ideological blowhard and/or survivalist nutjob who is hardly conservative and has never, ever, ever read the original text of the Constitution first-hand.  Said blowhards choose this term to describe themselves and to declare themselves experts on all thing American, which is strange since they have never studied a thing on American history, law, culture, politics - or even basic fucking geography.

The best example would come in the form of a brief skit:

• Uncle Jim says he's a Constitutional Conservative, and proud of it!
• Constitutional?  Wow!  Has he studied Constitutional law?
• Uhh, I don't think so.
• Has he read the Constitution at home then?
• Well, he's more of a TV news guy than a reader.
• Well then how does he know about the Constitution?!
• Because he's a real Conservative!
• Hasn't he been married and divorced three times?  And didn't he get busted last Christmas for marijuana possession?
• Hey! He knows what he's talking about!  He watches Hannity every night!
• Aaaaaand there it is!!
