"No more public scatology."

A note from Govorner George W. Bush to Harriet Miers, Supreme Court Justice nominee.

Etymology: Greek skat-, skOr excrement; akin to Old English scearn dung, Latin muscerdae mouse droppings
1 : interest in or treatment of obscene matters especially in literature

Interesting...you think he knew what that big word meant before he wrote it?
