Bloviative

Q. What is Mr. Frost's reputation here?—A. Well, it is not very savory. He is a noisy talking, bloviative, swearing, rearing, tearing sort of a fellow. If I thought he was a truthteller I should think I was a pretty bad fellow myself , from what he has said about me.

Throughout our mildly bloviative, sometimes animated exchange, I think we had made assumptions about each other that may have changed. At least for me they have.

[…] and used it to acquire something odd for my collection of gargantuan gasbags (dirigibles, non-round balloons, and perturbingly plump politicians of a bloviative bent)—an artillery spotting balloon from the Russo-Japanese War, which Geoff found and recommended to me.

What I've seen of Fox is (check all that apply) boring, stupid, deliberately misleading, venal, bloviative, desperate. But, of course, I've only been able to stomach so much of that before having to watch something more wholesome, like Nip/Tuck (also, of course, on a Fox network!).

Yeah, there's plenty of self-righteousness here, and it's all on your part. Getting all hot and bothered about meal allowances for traveling employees is about as bloviative as it gets.
