Great New Word
By Jim Lynch on Feb 15, 2008 in Earmarxists
Don Surber shares a great new word that should be in every new dictionary — Earmarxist.
Earmarxist perfectly describes the process of taking money from you and giving it back to you as a pork barrel.
My bureau chief is not the first to use it, of course. But earmarxist is so fitting that it should be in the dictionary.
[...]
Daily, I look at the earmarks as reported in local newspapers and I realize that the officials in too many towns and counties are on the take. Not from the Mob or business interests, but from Washington.
The word is so descriptively accurate that I’ve created a new category for it.
