This was fun, and it suggests lots of good wordplay. "bauxite" is the closest, in terms of pronunciation--it's the raw material of aluminum (aluminium for you Brits). I like the fact the search engine offered up "botch" and "botchiest", the relevance of which should be obvious. Even "boyishly" could be seen from a certain perspective as more than just two words that sound similar. Somehow, it didn't come up with "buoyishly", or even "goyishly" (though they might both apply, if they existed as words).
I have to look up this "Boeotia", which was in ancient Greece (Q: is it still a place name in use?), and see if its historical example has any relevance to the current tyranny of Bushite misrule.

Oh, geez, I forgot to mention "bushtit"! Now, there's a word that seems almost too good to be true. I have to look that one up, too.
