“...the reek of sulphur is still here.” (to paraphrase Ugh-ho Chavez)
I think it’s called “the narcissist’s dilemma”.
BOTH of those words are SOOOOOOO appealing to him, he simply MUST use them interchangeably.
I Won !! So I can say anything I want to !!
I know I’M shocked and surprised by this development!
;^)
Being the messiah, I'm surprised Obama does not speak in Aramaic.
Not a word from the MSM on this.
Proper declension of pronouns is what sets us apart from the savages. That, and knowing our homophones, of course. And flush toilets.
LOL! Those "olde English" classes must be listed on his transcript we're not allowed to see. ;)
Seriously, though, this is one of my pet peeves. That, and mixing up "there", "they're" and "their". Oh, and "lose" and "loose".
Thanks for posting the article.
The author qoutes some of obama’s misspeaks, then to justify them, qoutes two sentences where the word ‘between’ is specifically used.
The usual way to tell if you should use “me” or “I”, is to leave out the other ‘subject’, and say the sentence.
i.e. a very personal decision for (Michelle and) I
the main disagreement with (John or) I
graciously invited (Michelle and) I.
One must remember that Obama has lived in environments where a different ‘language’ or ‘dialect’ is used.
One that has no ‘rules’, but instead has ‘fads’.
Where’s the NYT explanation of why Ottawa really should be pronounced “Iowa” a la O-Idiot?
Of course they are. Bill Ayers knows how to write.
I am sure he would get it right in his mother tongue, Arabic.
So the President was born in the 17th century?
Makes as much sense as anything else he’s said.
I barely heard the rest of his self-pitying, chip-on-his-shoulder diatribe, because I was laughing so hard from that, I almost missed his “nation of cowards” comment.
If you only read his comments in the adoring press, you'd never know how he really said it. But, if you listen to his actual comment, you get to hear what how marginally literate he truly is.
The second most powerful C-Student in America.
'It was a unintentional omission.'
This is especially likely to happen if he inserts a mellifluous "uh" between the "a" and "unintentional".
But GWB is the uneducated moron...
There is a flower shop in the downtown area where I live.
For 20 years, it has had “bokays” painted on the window.
I guess they were appealing to their audience.
Had they had “bouqet” painted on there, no one would have understood what it was they were selling.
My husband and I are worried that Obama will ruin you and me.
I ain’t falling for this. I don’t care about his grammar, I care about his Marxism. They wish they could get us to fight about his grammar.
