Here is my example with WFTD.

No pushing at the door please!
up and at ‘em, everyone.
I am thinking more like:
Prepare for the prevenient relocation of un-American dissenting mob members to reeducation camps, where they will learn to worship TOTUS and its reader.
“Will terming congressmen “unamerican” be prevenient to replacing them in 2010/2012?
New taxes, retroactively prevenient
To pay for healthcare (isn’t that con-veeeenient?)
Our Great Kenyan Führer
Has started a furor
And the sheep pray that their masters’ll be lenient
Here and waiting for the pump repair guy-
The prevenient ‘rat reaction-
Calling fellow Americans “thugs”
For disagreeing makes me certain
They’re drinking kool aid or doing drugs
They fear the truth coming out
And are trying to stem the tide-
While in increasing numbers
Their constituents want their hide
The message could not be clearer
But still they seem to doubt-
If they don’t do the peoples’ will
Come 2010 their asses are out
Some states can actually recall senators/representatives-I’d love to see one of them do just that.
A quick glance out the window as he tugged the knot closed at his throat. Not the power red today, a more funereal blue. They disgusted him, gathered around the podium out there as if it were a gallows scaffold. Reporters. ‘Vultures!’ he hissed. Teeming, prevenient and frenzied. Like sharks circling a leaking raft...
I don't like this word. It is preternatural. Sounds like "premie". There must be a good, sharp Anglo-Saxon word which could fill in for "prevenient" in your sentence. I, however, am at a loss. I can think of many strings of two words or more which do it but not one. Any suggestions?
