To bloviate means "to speak pompously and excessively" or "to expound ridiculously". A colloquial verb coined in the United States, it is commonly used with contempt to describe the behavior of politicians, academics, pundits or media "experts," sometimes called bloviators, who hold forth on subjects in an arrogant, tiresome way.
The top MEDIA BLOVIATORS are ( in alphabetical order) :
GLENN BECK, ANN COULTER, SEAN HANNITY, former Gov. BILL HUCKABEE, RUSH LIMBAUGH, MICHELLE MALKIN, BILL O'REILLY and former BUSH sidekick KARL ROVE. All but one of them is a listed contributor to FOX NEWS NETWORK. Surprise, surprise ! There are of course a number of bloviators at other networks, but they have not reached the level of entertainment as those listed.
The top POLITICAL BLOVIATORS are ( in alphabetical order ) :
REPUBLICANS :
Rep. JOHN BOEHNER, Rep. ERIC CANTOR, former V.P. DICK CHENEY, former Gov. BILL HUCKABEE and former BUSH sidekick KARL ROVE.
DEMOCRATS :
There are of course many Democrat bloviators, ( Barney Frank & Chris Dodd for example ), but they have yet to reach the level of in-your-face bloviation as the listed Republicans. Boehner and Cheney in particular have raised bloviation to an art form.
Thats the truth, look it up.
