Hornswaggler | The culture, the humor, a bit of the sports, not so much the politics, and the workplace distraction

Hornswaggle is an alternate spelling of hornswoggle, an archaic word that means to bamboozle or hoodwink. I take my pronunciation from the late Harvey Korman in "Blazing Saddles" --

"I want rustlers, cutthroats, murderers, bounty hunters, desperados, mugs, pugs, thugs, nitwits, halfwits, dimwits, vipers, snipers, conmen, Indian agents, Mexican bandits, muggers, buggerers, bushwhackers, hornswagglers, horse thieves, bull dykes, train robbers, bank robbers, ass kickers, shit kickers and Methodists!"

Club for Growth

Doing research on political action committees, I found my way to the Club for Growth's Web site and the press release for the ad they ran against Howard Dean prior to the Iowa Caucus.

Club for Growth being of course the ultra right-wing anti-taxers allied with Grover Norquist, the man behind Bush's tax policies, who has compared in all seriousness the real estate tax to the Holocaust.
