The Audacity of Obama Neutral

tmj links to Althouse linking to a Tom Toles cartoon sans further commentary. Tmj labels it "Obama neutral", which sounds like what a Dungeons and Dragons player, who supported Dean in 2004, and has now fallen for Obama, might say.

I am labeling it "Buckleyesque" for using an audacious word like "audacious", "spun" since it is adopting an Obama term and passing it along without comment just like Obama would want, and "geek" for the obvious, if unintentional, D&D reference.

ETA: Only a true Althouse geek would know that while Palladins are "lawful good", Palladians are definitely "chaotic evil."

Geek here. I think there's a typo re Palladins being CE.

:)

Good luck and remember to have fun with this!

Oh Palladians. Guess I'm not as geeky as I thought. Sob.

You know Palladian-- he's the commenter most likely to break Althouse's celibacy vow. ;-)

Dude you haven't met either of them in person. They play on different teams in a double negative sense if you know what I mean. There is that obscure enough for you.
