Linguistical Obama
Much has been written about Obama's linguistic skill.
Some might say it's the only thing that he has going
for him.
But that's not the purpose of this page. Rather, I'd
like to explore the variety of new terms that have
sprung from his name. If possible I'll tell you
where I first heard the term or maybe point to a
definition or other resource. If nothing else, this
exercise should make for some interesting visits from
search results. Should be fun.
