Is this like the "Mother of all wars" threat from the Gulf War? Let them continue to run their mouths. It makes the Frogs and Germans look more assinine!

[Robert_Paulson2]

PRONUNCIATION: gobshite (rhymes with "bob might")

NOUN: Chiefly British Slang A person regarded as mean or contemptible.

ETYMOLOGY:Perhaps ultimately from obsolete gobshite, wad of expectorated chewing tobacco or tobacco juice : gob2 + dialectal shite, excrement (from Middle English shiten, to defecate, from Old English *sctan; see skei- in Appendix I).
