Fristians

My "fundamentalistas" catch-phrase has been trumped, sadly. The new buzz-word is "fristians".

 

I actually like Bill Frist on a personal level. He seems like an upright guy and kind of a polar opposite from a moron like Tom DeLay. There was an incident last year where he was travelling through my area and stopped to help an accident victim (he's a surgeon). Credit where it's due, after all.

 

But it's a great catch-phrase and fairly applied.

The new buzz-word is "fristians".

Did you hear that on Randi Rhodes? Your fundamentalistas just had too many syllables to make a good sound bite. Too ethnic for mainstream as well. Fristians are people who do business in church right after the sermon.

I saw a sign in an ABC News story last night. I Googled it, and sure enough it's all over the blogosphere.

 

I'm sure you're right about "fundamentalistas". I just loved the whole "sandanista" implication. But nobody remembers them anymore anyway, which I should have known. Ah well.

 

I'm afraid I don't know much about Randi Rhodes. Tell, tell. That's his definition, people who do business in church after the sermon?

Fristians sounds like a new brand of turkey burgers, low in fat and high in fabulous taste.
