Taxloss invented a new DU term today: "LaTourette's Syndrome"
A Republican can be diagnosed with "LaTourette's Syndrome" if they
suddenly stop spouting lies, evasions, talking points, duplicity and the rest, and start making perfect sense.
;)
"LaTourette's Syndrome" is named after Rep. Steven LaTourette (R-OH) and was inspired by Rep. LaTourette's appearance on CSPAN's WJ this morning and his (surprising) support of Amtrak.

(*No offense meant to anyone with Tourette's Syndrome.* One of my musician friends has the syndrome.) :hug:

Should we add it to the DU glossary or wait to see if it catches on first?
:thumbsup: :shrug: :thumbsdown: :think:

2. It's very rare. We're still not sure exactly what causes it to develop.
