Schediasma
Posted by Bruce Kahl on March 07, 2002
Here in the USA, Mr. Bush is attempting to stuff the courts with
a Mr. Pickering who is a way off there in right wingmanship.
This Mr. Pickering
on CNN the other eve after he was asked about a few of his past actions and letters
that are clearly racist defended his views by stating that they were said/done
many years ago and were nothing but a "schediasma".
"Schediasma" is Greek---schediasma,
-atos ("caprice, something
done off-hand")
The word flowed into Rome and was frequently used by Cicero who was a writer--some say gossip columnist--for some saucy tabloids back then.
Mr. Pickering, Dont attempt to fool us!
