I have a confession to make; a shameful secret that I now feel I must share. I enjoy "The Presient's" verbal gaffes because I believe they show his true intellectual depth. That's not the confession, however. My secret is this - I have to work to pronounce the word "nu-clear" and not, as the Commander in Chief puts it: "Nuke-lee-er." There, it's out. "Nuke-lee-er" just sounded right and it wasn't until about five or six years ago that I became aware of the mispronounciation. I always spelled it right, but. . .
On the other hand, I'm not a Yale graduate, nor am I the President. It probably isn't wrong to expect the man in charge of launching "Nuke-lee-er" weapons to be able to say it correctly. But then, this is the same "President" who asks "Is we educating our children?" |
