On this evening's O'Reilly Factor, Geraldo Rivera scolded guest host Eric Bolling for pronouncing the state of Nevada as Ne-VA-da. Condescendingly instructed Rivera: "It's a Spanish word, Ne-VAH-da. Gringo."
There's just one problem. When it comes to pronouncing the name of the state, and not the Spanish word, Bolling was right and Rivera was wrong: "The only acceptable pronunciation of the state is 'Nev-AD-a,' not 'Nev-AH-da.' Pronouncing the stateâs name incorrectly can draw ire among residents."--Time magazine.

Five years ago, I moved from upstate New York to a community in Texas called “Pecan Plantation.” Had to work to get the pronunciation right!

I’d rather print his photo out & take it out to my air gun range. I have always felt better after doing a lot of that.

Is anything Geraldo says true? If he has he ever called himself a worthless, self-important, ass-gobbling douchebag, then my answer would be 'yes'.

Being a 100% Disabled Veteran with a fiduciary, I’m on the federal NO BUY list & subject to random health & safety inspections from the va. So I’m only allowed to shoot air rifles. But I’ve got a couple of them that can bring down a deer at 125 yards & a hog at 100 yards

Geraldo is a little bitch who has issues with being identified as a man. That is why the little bitch is always trying to prove what a man he is. Jerry rivers once bragged about hopping in the sack with Bette Midler. She claimed he didn't
"measure up"

Liar — Geraldo really pronounces it “Az-it-LAn”
To: Fai Mao
Maybe that delicious nut is called a puh-con in Guam, but I’ve lived in TX, Georgia and other places where it was called a pee-can, e.g. Peecan pie.
Buddies and I would knock them out of a tree with sticks at recess for snacks.
A `thunder-mug’ is what you put under the bed down in the basement tornado shelter.
Emergency pee-cans must be native to islands that might tip over and sink.
