He’s inteligent, but the problem is that he doesn’t know anything about America, much less about military culture and terminology. And why should he, or could he, given his upbringing?.

Folks...you have missed the BIG part of the story here.

The CiC could not pronounce Corpsman...but NAILED, perfectly the Creole phrase. Why is that? Did someone rehearse the Creole...and opted to overlook the obvious Corpsman...or are they (the Obot Administration) ALL that damn dumb?

He actually did it FOUR times.....once after Fort Hood, once in October in Jacksonville Florida:

and then twice at the prayer breakfast.

Unfortunately, Hannity (who is nice and fun but not so smart) botched the pronounciation himself, calling me and my esteemed colleagues “Corz-men!”

For the benefit of those for whom “military” is a foreign language, it is pronounced “COR-mun” in the singular and “COR-men” in the plural. Just like an apple “core.”

Put him in an apple peeler
Till his Muzzie azz is sore
Then he may learn the difference
Between corpse and corps!

I usually find profanity offensive but I must admit I loled at that poem. :)

a truly educated man

There's a problem, though.

-> Obama is not truly because his entire life is a lie and charade
-> Obama is not educated, no sense of history, no experience
-> Obama is not a real man, only in biological definition

Pretty sad --- even if as Harry Read had said , he chose to speak Ebonics -- still pretty sad. I'd guess he was just reading words with not much recognition of what he was reading.

Reminds me of the pronounciation you hear on local radio from the kid announcers just out of college.

Wouldn't that make you a Medic?

Corpsmen are members of the US Navy Medical Corps. That is where the name came from.

No disrespect --- same job but just a different branch.

Watch and see... all these liberals scholars will come out of the woodwork and say that “corpse-man” is a perfectly acceptable pronunciation.

So the question is, when will this appear on CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, MSNBC, etc.?

Anyone? Anyone?

Now imagine if Sarah Palin had said, "Corpse men."

Unbelievable.
