Confessayer

Created by: readerwriter

Pronunciation: kun-fehs-say-er

Sentence: Barack Obama, the 44th President of the United States, would take his place in history as The Great Confessayer. Throughout his administrations, from January 20, 2009 to January 20, 2017, he consistently attempted to express the universal hopes and dreams of all Americans and humankind in his words and through his actions. There was always some discussion and indecision as to whether he should be called The Great ProConfessayer by his detractors because of his seeming attempts to please everyone and The Great ConProfessayer by his adherents because of his cool and professorial manner during times of great crisis.

Etymology: Combining confess and essay. From the French, essayer, to try or attempt through writing one's thoughts and confess, to tell or make known one's thoughts, sins, etc. Also a slight nod to Ronald Reagan, the 40th President, known as The Great Communicator.

Edeneologist

Created by: OZZIEBOB

Pronunciation: ee-DEN-ee-OL-uh-jizt

Sentence: At his inauguration ceremony the new president, an ardent edeneologist, promised "...to beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks.." However, by the time the spin doctors and political correctionists took control of his speech-making and letter writing, he was not allowed not use the word "beat" : it was far too violent; furthermore, "pruning" could be misinterpreted, and use against him by his opponents, to claim government cutbacks were about to be made, and any mention of "shares", in a time of a "R" , was an absolute no-no. Sensible people agreed wholeheartedly that it was time for him to turn to the verbotomists and verbotomy for help.

Etymology: Blend of EDEN;a state of perfect happiness or bliss. & NEOLOGIST: a maker of new words.

COMMENTS:

Captures the 'spin doctoring' of the politicians promising to create a new paradise. Excellent word! - silveryaspen, 2009-01-20: 12:51:00
