Well, they do both mean "go with": con- (with) + gressus (p.p. of gradi, to walk), co- (another form of con-) + itus (p.p. of iri, to go).
The characters on The Big Bang Theory keep mispronouncing "coitus"; the o and the i are supposed to be separate, like in "coincidence", "cooperate" and "coalition".

From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Right through the worst of the Bush years and into the present, Thom Hartmann has been one of the very few voices constantly willing to tell the truth. Rank him up there with Jon Stewart, Bill Moyers, and Paul Krugman for having the sheer persistent courage of his convictions."
From The Thom Hartmann Reader:
"Through compelling personal stories, Hartmann presents a dramatic and deeply disturbing picture of humans as a profoundly troubled species. Hope lies in his inspiring vision of our enormous unrealized potential and his description of the path to its realization."
From Screwed:
"Hartmann speaks with the straight talking clarity and brilliance of a modern day Tom Paine as he exposes the intentional and systematic destruction of America’s middle class by an alliance of political con artists and outlines a program to restore it. This is Hartmann at his best. Essential reading for those interested in restoring the institution that made America the envy of the world."
Is it just a coincidence that one meaning of 'congress' is coitus and that's also where
the American people can count on getting screwed? (Also available at bookstores
