Word For The Day, Monday, 3/27/17



In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of "Word for the Day".

inveigle; verb

inveigle \in-VAY-guhl; -VEE-\, transitive verb 1. To persuade by ingenuity or flattery; to entice. 2. To obtain by ingenuity or flattery.

Etymology: Inveigle comes from Anglo-French enveogler, from Old French aveugler, "to blind, to lead astray as if blind," from aveugle, "blind," from Medieval Latin ab oculis, "without eyes."

Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the Word for the Day in a sentence.
The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day.

The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-)
Practice makes perfect.....post on....

Anyone else enjoy the pics and videos of MAGA rally where they chased down and arrested the antifa. I couldn’t get enough of it yesterday.

Just as Marx tried to finagle
The dialectics of Hegel
And appeal to the youth,
The ignorant, and uncouth,
So do RINOs attempt to inveigle.

I agree. What I find interesting is that the FC doesn’t trust the others to actually come forth with Phases 2 & 3, which would give them the whole deal. That distrust tells me a lot. I just wish that they’d stop dithering around. The clock is ticking and the press and the lying left are having a field day.

The American Care Act is vital
But it’s spinning in the DC cycle
If it takes to pass
Some kissing of ass
Then Trump may have to inveigle

found this on a Catholic site about Friday's talk. I was glad to see written out explicitly his answer to what happens if Frank sits mute to the Dubia.

I don’t fault President Trump for this either. Inveigling RINOs to do the right thing is a long-term project, not a quick exchange of words that has to be done in the first few weeks. I just pray that Trump will, as always, play to win. And I pray that real Americans will continue to let him and the world know that we are on his side and cheering for him.

I do not doubt his intention to play to win! I think the real people are still behind him.

Word for the day haiku:

To move the Congress,
inveigling sure doesn’t work.
You need a strong hand.

I never got why Tomi Lahren was being pushed so hard. She is 24 yo, TOTALLY not ready for prime time, yet Sean, Jesse Waters etc. have had her on and I have yet to hear her say anything noteworthy. SO, given that she's pretty much a nothing burger, her statement on the View that she would consider herself a hypocrite to be a prolife in view of her libertarian, small gov't stance, casts her in a bad light in my eyes.
