NEW WORD FOR THE DAY

"Kakistocracy":
Kakistocracy is government by the worst, most unprincipled citizens of a state. It's from the Greek kakistos, worst, superlative of kakos, bad.
Three, no two, guesses as to which regime is nominated for this dubious honor (link via Dean Esmay).

Comments:
Oh, that one's gotta get wider use. Like "Pyrrhic Victory"....
