I thought that was Eisenhower. "Nookyooler". Heck, even Bubba Clinton slipped it in now and then.

That may be true. I wasn’t even a sparkle in my daddy’s eye when he was in office. GWB introduced me to the new phonetics. It was a “WTF” moment the first time I heard a speech using the term and the only reason I remember it at all.
