Is Noocular a common mispronunciation in Connecticut?
But see that's exactly what the people on the left say. Example:
The idiot right wing hype machine needs to be exposed for what it is. People like O'Reilly and Limbaugh. The shills who said Obama was Kenyan and Obama was a secret communist need to be exposed as the hypocrites they are.
See? It's easy.
Why is it silly when President Obama cannot pronounce a word properly. But when Bush mispronounces nuclear he's an idiot? Liberal hypocrites where constantly calling GWB an idiot.
O'Reilly is not a right winger, he's center, slightly right with some liberal views.
Perspective is everything. For you O'Reilly is not a right winger, but for many people on the left he's far right.
That's all I'm saying.
This is as silly as the thread on Michelle Obama's shoes.
To anyone objective, lumping him with limbaugh is dumb. :shrug:
I agree. It is also just as silly as the kajillion threads we saw making fun of Bush's pronunciation of nuclear. LOL.
that's how we say Nuc-u-lar in Texas. what's the bid deal? We say Car different than they do in Boston too.RealClearPolitics - Video - Obama Mispronounces "Corpsman" At Prayer Breakfast
So this is our brilliant Harvard educated man whose education and sophistication is such a breath of fresh air compared to the
Obama pronouced corpsman as "corpseman" twice within the same speech. That's not a slip; that's your president not knowing how to pronounce an everyday word, albeit a military word, which might just explain it right there.
No big deal, you say? Well, harken back to the endless rants about Bush and his "nuc-u-lar" and "tourist attack" mispronunciations - which I dogpiled on, too, because it was funny - and ask yourself, why so little is made by the left of Obama's absolute dependence on teleprompters and his obvious lack of basic high school knowledge of history and economics.
I'm just sayin'.
Can I ask any of the grammar Nazis why the "p" is silent in that word?
It was spelled that way so we could weed out the idiots. Same reason we call it the Marine Corps or the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. Gotta weed out the idiots somehow and look who took the bait. The Idiot and Chief. Looks more like Bush every day.

Here's what people on the left would say:

See, it's fun. :mrgreen:
No offense, but the thread probably could have stopped right there and had a nice retirement home on a beach somewhereNo, you're not "just sayin". This is a perfect example of hyper-partisan nitpicking. It's typical of people who cannot debate topics or provide any meaningful insight into anything on a message board.
I watched people do the exact same thing to Bush for 8 years. It was childish and silly then, it's childish and silly now.
Hey, its leftennant...get it rightI would agree if I didn't have to constantly hear how refreshingly sophisticated and NUANCED Obama is from the left all the time.
I wonder how he'd pronouce other military terms, like sword or lieutenant.
.....really?Hellhound, not everyone has been in the military. If Obama had been in the military and mispronounced it, that would be one thing. However, all english speaking people know what a potato is (if they are at least 3) and how to spell it (if they are at least 4). This is hardly the same. Heck, I didn't know that word existed until this thread got started.
Whistlestopper: the hinged flappy thing on top of train and truck horns right...?I'd be interested is hearing more about that.
