Well, yes, of course. Obama did it at least once. Dubya did it at least once. Equivalence, see ? 😛

I’ve a sneaking suspicion that, when it comes to _mispronouncing shit_, we’re going to find it _exceptionally easy_ to invoke Bush.

I thought it was worth a laugh & showed overreliance on the teleprompter, but hell, I can see myself saying that- I hope I would have corrected it the next time I said it, tho!

Then again, I did think the name of The Blood Countess was Elizabeth BathorNy for OVER TWENTY YEARS in spite of all my books from back then correctly printing it as Bathory. To be fair to me, though, it took that long for someone to correct me.

We need a bit more content for a thread to survive, even in The Pit. I’m going to close this.
