Language And Grammar

After eight years of listening to George W. Bush trying to speak English, I’m not sure that I could take four years of listening to Sarah Palin trying to speak English.

From Palin Responds to Federal Bail Out by Shushannah Walshe:

Palin responded to a question about the economic recovery plan, which was hashed out overnight. She answered, but she made it clear that she was then going to concentrate on the Blue Star Moms, “Bailout? Ok? Then I’m going to talk to these gals whose sons are also in the service. But, thankful that John McCain is able to have some of those provisions implemented in that Paulson proposal to have more sound oversight,” Palin said. “Taxpayers aren’t going to be assumed to be called upon to bail out so I’m glad that John McCain’s voice is heard and his leadership too.”

And there is always this.

Perhaps the real reason the far right despises Noam Chomsky has more to do with his being a linguist and less to do with his political views.
