radiclib

A portmanteau of "radical liberal". The coining of the word is
generally attributed to U.S. Vice President Spiro Agnew. It
was used by the Nixon administration to attack the political
opposition, implying that the liberals in the Senate were

of praise. Give the senators a 'radiclib' rating."
