Churchill-humping

present participle. Quoting Winston Churchill to excess—beyond the bounds of decency and well past the point of barfitude. Common among journalists and politicians.

Real citation: “A few years ago, after Bush's post-9/11 State of the Union speech sparked a wave of Winston Churchill references in the periodical media, I started keeping track of Churchill-humping among American pundits. I found that Gergen, the former Reagan communications aide, was far and away the national hack most pathologically determined to quote Churchill at every conceivable opportunity."
