    Is gauzy the new poofy?

    That’s the question, Darleen. Can’t wait for Gleen to weigh in.

    I would have gone with flimsy as opposed to gauzy.

    I would have gone with shirtliftery, or gerbilcaveish.

    [...] The LA Times compares Hillary to prose and Obama to poetry; Andrew declares the argument “solid.”  Concrete poetry?  Arse poetica? Do you accept this dialectical materialization from one who’s been accused of gauziness? [...]

    Rick Perlstein characterizes Andrew Sullivan as “gauzy.”

    Well, in his defense, he didn’t say ‘girlzy’…

    Sure it wasn’t “gassy”? He’s definitely gassy.

    Maybe he meant ‘gaussian’. Like ‘as stupid as a mindless electric field’, or ‘controlled by forces outside his environment’, or ‘ugly like a person shaped like a gaussian sphere’.

    It’s possible. Typos happen all the time.

    Hahaha! I would actually say swishy more. Never hear of the term gauzy.

    I think he’s gauzy; the way he openly expresses his support for Obama.

    Gauzy is NOT homophobic, and yes I’m a Barack. I have never understood why
    the gay and lesbian community always default to the Clintons
    when either of them enters a political race.
