After Googling the term and finding it on a few Republican websites, I've come to realize that the term is being mispelled, so it's understandable that you would be confused by the term. The term is actually "Gorbasm" and as you can see, it is an ellision of "Gorbachev" and "Orgasm." The term was coined by Rush Limbaugh, and referred to a euphoric feeling among liberals when Gorbachev landed in Washington to save the world from the war-mongering Reagan.As he puts it, in <a href="http://www.rushlimbaugh.com/home/daily/site_072707/content/01125107.guest.html">his own words</a>: "A Gorbasm basically is that feeling of uncontrolled joy and excitement that explodes, or I should say exploded, when Mikhail Gorbachev landed in Washington in 1987 to save the world from Ronald Reagan's finger on the nuclear button." As you can see, the term refers to a specific event in the nation's past, and doesn't occur any more.
