congresswad

noun. Congressrodent.

Real citation: “Nevada Democrat congresswad Harry Reid has been busted for crooked dealings. Democrats reading this can mince words. They can twist and whine and produce obscure laws and say "technically, he didn't violate X law as it existed on X date." I am sure they will. But that doesn't change the fact that Harry Reid is a crooked scumbag.”

Made-up citation: “When I feel worthless, and there’s no hope, and I might as well end it all, seven words bring me back from the depths of despair: At least I’m not a congresswad. Huzzah!”
