The term "Satan Sandwich" can be attributed to US Congressman Emanuel Cleaver II (Dem, MO-5), who referred to recent the debt-ceiling deal as "a sugar-coated satan sandwich." First of all, it sounds great as a soundbite and second of all, no one really knows what that means, other than that Cleaver didn't like the bill.
Cleaver is a Methodist minister (hence the preoccupation with Satan) and a former mayor of Kansas City. He was a Hillary supporter in 2008, drawing opprobrium from his fellow members of the Congressional Black Caucus.
He is not, as far as we know, related to Ward, June, Wally or Theodore Cleaver.
