I listened to many clips of Bush’s last State of the Union address on the way into to work this morning. Usually I mute the radio right away when I hear his voice, but today I listened.

I’m not here to comment on his rosy assessment of the state of the world, (Ha!) I just want to say it really, really bugs how he says ‘hunnert’ instead of hundred. Diction, Mr. President.

Also, how he says ‘a’ when he’s reading his speeches, like a second grader who’s just getting the hang of it. For example. “Tonight, I am instructing the leaders of the FBI, the CIA, the Homeland Security and the Department of Defense to develop AY Terrorist Threat Integration Center, to merge and analyze all threat information in AY single location.”

That is all.

    This is a bumper sticker I saw recently. That about sums it up.

    Please dear universe, let us get a Dem in the White House. Save Our Earth.

    That speech impediment drives me crazy too. It would just be nice if our leader could represent us and speak properly. I sound like emily post..but I think she would agree. At least he doesn’t have a habit of saying “ain’t” in his speeches.
    xo

    How does he pronounce nuclear again?

    I’m with you Jenny, on turning whatever is on OFF when his voice violates my ears. *shudder*

    Please the forces of politics, may a Democrat get into the White House this November.

  4. Let’s not forget nucyaler! Oh, Camille didn’t.

    Dar: Yes, please oh please dear universe. Although, should the worst happen, it could never be as bad as Bush. At least none of the repubs are EMBARRASSING.

    dahli: Oh god. When he says “ain’t” I just want to die.

    Camille: please oh please oh please

    Occidental Girl: Hi there, friend! Um, yeah. Nuke-ya-ler. *shiver*
