Slaughter liberals with a brand-spanking-new vocabulary!

(this is not a joke, I did not make these words up)

I bet you're about to close this page because the last thing you want to do is learn new words. Put the mouse down, this is good for you, and you will like it once it's over. Now, to the best under-used words in the english language:

Kakistocracy: government by the least able or qualified, or government by the most corrupt

Verisimiltude: the appearance of truth or reality

Kibosh: something that serves as a check or stop

Venal: open to bribery or purchase, mercenary-like

Jurisprudence: the science or philosophy of the law

Xenophobia: fear of foreigners or foreign things
Bet you heard that word countless times, but had no idea what it meant until now

Kerfuffle: confusion, uproar, disorder
Don't blame me if people laugh when you use this word

Dichotomy: a split between two very different philosophical groups

Quotidian: daily; ordinary, usual

Tenuous: flimsy, weak, lacking substance or strength

Incorrigible: unfixable, impossible to manage
like social security

Quid pro quo: an exchange or even bargain
unlike social security

Venial: pardonable, forgivable, excusable
Do not confuse this with venal

Junket: a trip or travel, especially one taken by a public official at public expense

Vanguard: the forefront oo leading edge of an army or movement
