Patriot Act (USA PATRIOT Act)
1. A law championed by Attorney General John Ashcroft and passed by Congress, the details of which are irrelevant, written by patriots who love freedom, which strengthens the United States in the face of the terrorist threat.

Such treasonous activity has caused over 300 communities across America, including three state legislatures, to pass resolutions challenging the law.

*Consistent with the Republican agenda of dismantling social services, public healthcare, and education programs, proposed legal protection for the well-being and health of children should end at the instant of their birth.

protest
1. A gathering of unwashed tie-dye wearing hippies whose idea for recreation during their unemployment is to walk around with signs, block traffic, burn American flags, and complain about things that in reality are perfectly fine. The worldwide protest of over ten million people in dozens of countries on February 15, 2003 to prevent the Iraq War made clear that there are far more unwashed tie-dyed weed-smoking unemployed hippies infesting the world than previously thought.

Matters of war are frequently cause for large protests. American war protestors fail to understand that U.S. soldiers have fought and died throughout American history to preserve their freedom to speak out against the government, and would not take kindly to having their sacrifice dishonored by people speaking out against the government.

Such school districts must be held accountable by further decreasing their funding until their performance is consistent with adequately funded school districts.

public opinion

Public opinion may be changed as necessary with skilled political campaigns in order to achieve the desired outcome most beneficial to the Republican Party and its donors and hence, the public.
Purple Heart
1. An award bestowed on soldiers who are wounded or killed during military conflict. The Purple Heart has historically been an honor deserving of respect for the sacrifice suffered by the recipient, but thanks to the courageous veterans of the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth, we know that soldiers earning the Purple Heart may be liars and cowards who should be mocked accordingly.
