My dad loves his family, his country, and God. He is honest, hardworking, and a smart business man.

He also mispronounces words, oftentimes. He doesn't know the lead-singer of U2. Wouldn't know what shows Regis hosts.

He is still a great man and a great leader. He has his priorities in order, and so does W.

[anyone notice how desperate the media is to find SOMETHING, ANYTHING to turn public-opinion against the president. pathetic worker-rats.]

My father has several masters degrees, has worked for the same company for 37 years (and is only 55!) and has had a very succesful move up the corporate ladder, and has traveled the world on business. Probably one of the best educated and well read people I know with a real world business education and life experience. Grew up dirt poor. Both his parents worked in the EJ Shoe Factory in Endicott NY sewing shoes together. He busted his butt and has become very succesful and provided my brother and I with a wonderful upbringing and all the advantages one could ask for.

Having said that, my father is the worst person in the world when it comes to language and pronounciation. He is so bad that the family predicts what the next thing he will screw up will be. We have gotten pretty good at predicting how he will misprounounce certain words and new products. It is very entertaining. And no matter how many times you give him the proper pronounciation he never grasps it.
