What mean name have you given the Swift Boaters?
I personally have gravitated towards referring to them in discussion as "Swift Boaters for Jesus." Any jauntier suggestions are appreciated.

19. None. It's bullshit. It's like "them" calling "us" "LIE-BERALS."
:eyes:

JMHO - YMMV.

20. swifties - it's descriptive, short, easy to remember, everyone knows
who you are talking about, and it is a literary reprise of people who are fans of Tom Swift books - a series of stories about fantasy inventions - which seems to fit this crowd of swifties. I know, it's a convoluted metaphor but it's mine and I'm sticking to it.

21. Jesus was a liberal and a pacifist.
It would be wrong to associate his name with those assholes. It's kinda like saying "Britney Spears fans for Beethoven."

I call them Swift Boat Veterans for Bald-Faced Lies.
