Madison Avenue Spin

Well the election is over and now all I keep hearing is the latest "Madison Avenue spin" for our 31 year long debt boom....."Fiscal Cliff".  I checked out "the trend" on Google Trends and, yep, the Sheeple are already regurgitating it like they even know what it means.  Look at this "up trend"

Here's some other great "spin terms" with my interpretation:
-"Axis of Evil" - countries that we plan to control relating to securing oil reserves
-"War on Terror" - justification for invading oil producing nations
-"Operation Enduring Freedom" - Afghanistan, thank you for the landing strip
-"Operation Desert Storm" - cool name for our invasion of an oil producing nation
-"Operation Iraqi Freedom" - "Operation We Now Control Your Oil" or "Sorry France and Germany But Your Oil Contracts Are Now Null And Void"
-"Arab Spring" - the contraction of mass social mood (e.g. The mob is angry)
-"Quantitative Easing" - cool name for bankrupting our country
-"QE1" - ditto
-"QE2" - ditto
-"QE3" - ditto
-"Operation Twist" - QE4 was too predictable?
-"WMD" - remember when we called then "atomic bombs"??
 -"Flash Crash" - major alert that a "Black Swan" lies ahead
