Below is the fifth installment of political phrase and word definitions. Enjoy.

“Unethical campaign funding” Your opponent’s big money contributors.

“Trusted Advisors” Your big money contributors.

“Good legislation” Any legislation that you sponsored.

“Legislation that needs work” Good legislation that someone else sponsored that you’re going to keep stalling until you can take credit for it.

 “That policy has run it’s course” The last pole shows it’s approval rating is below 51% now.

“Sound Fiscal Policy” Any policy that gets someone else to pay for more of your programs than before.

 

(Well, in electioneering times, if you think about it, their campaign promises are a bit like the old definition of  “CHIVALRY” – being  A mans inclination to defend a woman against every man but himself.)
