On 'This Week with 'Christiane Amanpour' (Sunday, 11 AM ET on ABC) the panel was discussing the State of the Union address Barack Obama is scheduled to give Tuesday when veteran pundit George Will weighed in with some racy language.

"Every president, regardless of party, tries to stroke every erogenous zone in the electorate," Will explained.

"Oh my goodness!" cried out Amanpour, as Paul Krugman and Matthew Dowd smirked in the background.

For his part, Will kept speaking as though he hadn't said anything out of the ordinary.

Will happened to be wearing a necktie, rather than the bow-tie he is famous for, when he made the R-rated analogy. So, perhaps this is just what happens when Will sports more adventurous attire.
