Obamaspeak

Obamaspeak is meaningless content from Barack Obama or his campaign, often designed merely to appease a liberal interest group, take a position that is perceived to be popular, or satisfy a reporter's inquiry.

Bloggers commented on the Obamaspeak during his campaign for president.

An example of Obamaspeak after the presidential election was when Obama first publiclly opposed the Roland Burris nomination to the U.S. Senate, but within a week reversed himself (without admitting his error) as the perceived popular opinion shifted to the other side.

Obamaspeak can be contrasted with conservative linguistic developments like Newspeak, which is a variation of English that utilizes a highly efficient use of existing language to maximize efficiency.
