Backackwards: The rather unfortunate second-generation corruption of "bass-ackwards". Definition: When Michael Steele "wears his hat" (as seen on Thursday's Morning Joe on MSNBC) in re. party affiliation. We love Mr. Steele. He has to be a gift from God, he just has to be. Seth MacFarlane could just cut and paste his infamous off-key misstatements into Family Guy. Seth, you just have to do it... We're begging you. You could have Stewie following him around with the off-key tuba. On the other hand, if Mr. Steele were a musician, he could be Stewie with a tuba. Three words: comedy. Gold. Mine. Gee whiz... ("That'll be sixty dollars").
