I have been hearing FoxNews and such use the word to describe the stimulous package.

porkulous... etc.

It's basically just name-calling. It's their only tactic since logic and reason doesn't work for them.

Not a fan of media types making up new words or hybrids of words. It indicates that they don't have anything intelligent or useful to say.

it's up the same alley as "joe the plummer", "joe six pack" and "team of mavericks" :wink:

It's been driving me crazy hearing that word come out of the mouth of people who are supposed to report the news. Not create an opinion and then report it.

I watched a little of Obama tonight and my favorite is when he addressed all the repubs negative votes and opinions of the package. My paraphrase is that this is coming from the people who have been spending money and put him and the American people in this position.

The conspiracy theory psycho in me makes me think this word is just a seed planted for when they blame the whole breakdown of the system on giving money directly to the people. Nothing breaks when we create fake money for the banks or failed car makers (notice I didn't say failing) but if we give it to the people all hell will break loose.

I like porkulous better. At least it doesn't confuse the people who can't understand half the shit they throw out at you. Yes we are describing it sheepable and that isn't it's real name.

i'm going to start adding "ulous" to the end of every word needing special attention. for example, "oh fuckulous! i forgot to get milk at the market!" which really isn't a very good example, but it's early. the possibilities are endless as your imagination unfolds.

I can't believe Joe the Plumber is a fox news reporter now. Truly shows how low they've fallen. NOT that i'm saying an average working man shouldn't be allowed to say his piece in the national media, but a few things to consider.
1. His name is not Joe
2. He isn't really a plumber (at least in the licensed sense)
3. He's a tax cheat, much like those "evil" Democrats like Daschle.

And not only that, he's a babbling idiot.

If a plumber can unclog a toilet, maybe they can remove a head blockage in an otherwise well functioning asshole.
