Inaptronym?
There isn't a word for the opposite of an aptronym... Nevertheless, you can't beat the name of a witness in the John Edwards mess.
Bunny Mellon, the 101-year-old superrich Communist lady who was supporting Edwards's campaign. No! That's not right! Bunny Mellons should be the mistress!
= = = = =
As usual nobody is asking the real question.
Loyal Party apparatchiks do not get in trouble for misusing money, or for affairs, or for any violation of written laws. That's exactly why people become Party apparatchiks. The fact that Edwards is facing this absurdly legalistic trial tells us that he was disloyal. It tells us that he offended a more important member of the Politburo. Who was offended and how? That's the real question.
