Obama Tax Cuts
A highly inappropriate term for the extension of the Bush Tax Cuts!
In December 2010 the tax cuts were set to expire. President Obama and the Congressional Democrats wanted to let the tax cuts for the richest 2% expire and extend the tax cuts for the other 98%. Also at this time, the federal unemployment payments were set to end. Congressional Republicans didnot want to extend the unemployment benefits because it was "too costly," so they held the long-term unemployed hostage until Democrats extended the tax cuts for the richest 2%!!!
Obviously, the Democrats went along for the sake of the unemployed and to keep the tax cuts for those that actualy needed them. Republicans showed their true colors (caring only for the rich) while the Democrats were again the ones showing fiscal resposibility!

redundant definition
A redundant defintion occurs when someone submits a word to the Urban Dictionary that has already been published. This can either be caused by failing to look up the word before submitting it or by a dumbass who doesn't care if the word is already in the UD.
This term does not apply to an entirely different meaning or to a rebuttal defintion, but to a definition that is almost or exactly the same as a previous entry.
There really is no legitimate excuse for redundant definitions!

For examples of a redundant definition just look up Obama. There are several Obama definitions that are word-for-word indentical! There is no excuse for THAT kind of bullshit!

Julian Assange
An Australian-born computer hacker and founder of wikileaks.
Assange considers espionage and cyber terrorism a good thing. He seems to think all government and corporate secrets should be exposed with no regard for who may be harmed or how many lives could be lost.
Wikileaks is damaging fragile international relationships that were on the mend after George W Bush left office. ASSange is arrogant, paranoid and dangerous to government and corporations worldwide!
"Don't shoot the messenger for revealing uncomfortable truths." --Julian ASSange 2010

Julian Assange has revealed U.S. Military and diplomatic secrets that could compromise the missions in Afganistan and Iraq and this could put our soldiers in danger!

Avoid the Mall Day
On the day after Thanksgiving (a.k.a. Black Friday) all shopping areas are total chaos. Rather than fighting insane crowds to save a few dollars, the smart people stay home and avoid the malls on that Friday.

Reagan Math
A term describing the faulty logic of Reaganomics. Also known as trickle down, the theory is that if you reduce income (i.e. cut taxes) then you somehow generate more revenue. Obviously, this is not rational thinking.
The proof that this did not work (as if anyone needed it) is the fact that the national debt tripled during the Reagan Administration.

Lisa Murkowski
A U.S. Senator from Alaska. Murkowski was the incumbant in the 2010 election, but she was defeated in the G.O.P. primary by tea party candidate Joe Miller.
After the primary she mounted a write-in campaign. After some dispute and a recount, Murkowski won re-election in the first sucessful write-in campaign in 50 years!

It was a glorious slap in the face for Sarah Palin when Lisa Murkowski defeated her favored tea party candidate!

reaganing
An underhanded way to avoid lying under oath. The term is derived from Ronald Reagan's comments and testimony during the Iran-Contra hearings. When asked difficult questions about his involvement in illeagally funding the Contras, rather than pleading the 5th he would just say "I don't recall."
Usually when someone refuses to answer a question during testimony they look guilty, Reagan just sounded like a dumbass. Was it just a scam or had the alzheimers already started to affect him?

When testifying during the senate hearings, Tony Hayward, was reaganing when he said he was "not involved in that decision," several times, rather than admit the truth: BP fucked up!
