Jill Biden can’t say ‘bodega’ — and it brought back Peggy Hill comparison

First lady Jill Biden on Monday mispronounced “bodega” during a speech to a Hispanic advocacy group — drawing renewed comparisons to cartoon fellow teacher Peggy Hill.

Biden hailed the “bow-get-taas” of The Bronx during a speech in San Antonio, Texas, with such confidence that social media users recalled the “King of the Hill” cartoon character, a substitute teacher in Texas who taught Spanish without being able to correctly say “Español.”

The first lady’s pronunciation was closer to that of Colombian capital “Bogotá” than the standard pronunciation “bow-day-guh.”

Racist! She hates hispanic LatinX people.

If she had a PhD she would have had to take two languages and she’d know how to pronounce it. Education degrees don’t require languages.

“Ah ain’t no ways taarred!”

Hunter was right about her. Frankly I think she is worse than what he said about her.

What’s a woman?

[dfwgator]

And we all know how the Left mercilessly mocked Melania’s accent.

Having watched just a couple episode of NYPD Blue, Blue Bloods...fill in the blank this entitled @$_# would know how to pronounce the word. I guess East Coast Librarians with a PHD need not apply.

“If she had a PhD she would have had to take two languages”

Maybe her second language was pig Latin!

I imagine Jill Biden with a Porky Pig voice say,
“a bow-tuh, bow-duh, bow duh, bbb ... store!”

Don’t you all talk about the good doctor like that……s/

[BradyLS]

How was it spelled on her teleprompter? Or did she do the entitled thing and just wing it?

[Steely Tom]

Maybe her second language was pig Latin!

Ebonics.

Ugh... that nauseating fawning over her “PhD”.

I detest the haughty exhibition of intelligence — real or feigned.

[Gene Eric]

Good point. Maybe she was reading Joe’s teleprompter.

BOODYGOO!

Did I win?

“Education degrees don’t require languages.”

Typical soft science degree.
Good attendance record will get you through.

[gundog]

Her mouth is writing checks her ass can’t cash.

[mylife]

Off to the mercaaadoh...

[ConservativeInPA]

She’s a teacher. What else do you need to know? The majority of teachers in America are illiterate.
