Bargaining with Thieves( Doinks and RINO's )
American Vision.org ^ | Sep 09, 2009 | Bojidar Marinov

I remember Eastern Europe in 1989. I was there when the streets were flooded with people, when we watched the Berlin Wall being brought down, when the police blocked the streets and attacked us, trying to disperse the protests. One after another, Communist governments found it impossible to contain the wrath of their own people. We were on the streets, blocking parliaments and government buildings, demanding our liberty. All the Eastern European countries had constitutions, and those constitutions started with Article I: “The Communist party is the leading political force...”

We wanted just one thing: Repeal Article I. Destroy the political monopoly of the Communist party, destroy its power to take our life, liberty and property. (Not that we had much of any of these three left.) Nothing less than this.

The Communist governments didn’t want to give in. They knew our demands were morally right, so giving in would mean they had to admit the Communists had been morally wrong. So they had to find a way to blame us.

Never have seen the word “doink” used in a political context and can find nothing in the urban dictionary and it is not in the article.

Given that it is used with “RINO” I supposed there is a similarity, but I’m not seeing one that makes sense.
