Word of the Day!

oleaginous  o·le·ag·i·nous  adjective: oleaginous
  1. rich in, covered with, or producing oil; oily or greasy.
  2.  
    exaggeratedly and distastefully complimentary; obsequious.
  3.  
    "candidates made the usual oleaginous speeches in the debate"
My Take - This was used to discribe Treasury Secretary Lew as (a oleaginous cronyist).  In short....when someone is described in that way they're defined as have a greasy character.
