Norm Coleman (Urban Dictionary)
Norm Coleman

2. Usage:
Dude 1: I can't believe my brother is still trying to be an olympic swimmer.
Dude 2: Really, isn't he incontinent?
Dude 1: Yeah man. They banned him from the pool. But every morning he keeps trying to sneak in.
Dude 2: That's weak. He wasn't even that great of a swimmer to begin with.
Dude 1: Yeah, the team, the coach and especially the janitors hate him more and more every day. There's no point in continuing this. He's really pulling a Norm Coleman.

Short form: Norc

:rofl:

Cheney's attempt at revisionism regarding the war in Iraq is a total "Norm Coleman". :P
