Political Nicknames

I just saw in another thread a reference to Slick Willie, a little term of endearment for Bill Clinton. In an earlier time, we had Tricky Dick Nixon.

I think it's time for us to have a thread for proposed nicknames for the bumper crop of political clowns in (or trying to be in) office today.

Might I offer "The Wicked Witch of the West" for Nancy Pelosi?

    Obama = Dear Leader
    Michelle = Michelle Lunch Bell (Beatles riff)
    Soros = Dread King Soros
    Hillary = Hillita Clintón (Evita Perón riff)
    Pelosi = Stretch (H/T Mark Levin)
    Biden = Plugs (H/T Mark Levin)

    "Hillarity." Someone made for mockery.

    You know, in ancient Norse, you always used kennings for things because if you said the real name of something, say, "mouse" and you were aboard ship, it would 'call' all of the mice to your ship (which you did not want). So you made up a delightful poetic name for them: "wall-moose".

    We are making kennings...so that we do not invoke the beasts to come among us. Poetry is long lived in our cultural memory, no?

    Nixon = Evil
    Clinton = Eviler
    Obeyme = Evilist or Evilest

    Yes it's spelled correctly

    Lyndon B for Butcher Johnson is the real entry. The rest was just for fun

    Just last night I said, "President Obozo".

    I also use "Billary", and "Boner".

    Locally we have an assembly member named "Pan". I call him "Bed Pan" much to the delight of many of the locals.
