the group - that has roiled this state and nation

A bit off-topic, but "roil" seems to be the Drive-By Media's word du jour lately. I must have seen it used in various circumstances about 25 times this week.

Be careful mentioning that - you don’t want to get them all roiled up...

LMAO

I would imagine that one of their leftist deities at the NYT used it in a Bush-bashing editorial and so they pay homage to him / her by adopting that word, which may be new and stylish to many of them  :-)

Roil?

Roil has no gravitas.

Yes, L! The Sheep have been doing drive-bys non-stop on that poor word. It's all beat up and riddled with sheep-shot and soon to be yesterday's fashion. I pity any word that the Drive-By Media gets their filthy hooves on. And they must have NO idea just how silly they sound lining up to bleat it--each of them hopeful that they're "in" before a fellow disrelished colleague.

Words should be allowed to conceal and carry for self-protection...and for others in the vocabulary "at risk." ;-)
