Hypocrisy: Today's Word "Re"-Defined

Hypocrisy "Re"-Defined = Kyl-Roberts

In the wake of the massive BP oil spill, Senate Republicans are disowning the catchphrase “Drill, Baby, Drill,” claiming that Republicans never endorsed it. Sen. Jon Kyl (R-AZ) and Sen. Pat Roberts (R-KS) attempted to distance themselves and their party from the phrase yesterday, pretending not to know who popularized it, and dismissing the slogan as something from “two, three years ago”:

“That was not a Senate Republican phrase,” Kyl said. “I think there was a candidate that used that. I think our phrase was ‘drill here, drill now,’ meaning here in the United States and as quickly as oil and gas leases are going.”

Roberts said Republicans were always uneasy with the catchphrase.

“I don’t know about the slogan. The slogan was what, two, three years ago and basically we had a lot of opposition to it anyway.”

Words "Re"Defined...

A few weeks ago someone asked me to give them an example of redundancy.
Redundancy, I said, is living in a mobile home and vacationing in an RV.

So I thought I start a new feature called Words "Re" Defined. Today's word is:

Hedgehog: Goldman Sachs' VP Fabrice Tourre.
