Sometimes big words are hard to pronounce...when you are in fifth grade. Some names like Ahmadinejad are tough for most Americans, but the President of the United States should know how to say Mugabe and Caracas. Unfortunately, our bumbling ehh dee ott doesn't know some of the simplest words, even if they are in English.
From ABC News:
ABC News' Ann Compton and Jennifer Duck report: Never before has the White House released a draft version of the President's speech to the annual United Nations General Assembly.
But this year, a glimpse of how the President sees his speeches was accidentally placed on the UN website along with the speechwriters' cell phone numbers.
Pronunciations for President Bush's friend French President Sarkozy "[sar-KOzee]" appeared in draft #20 on the UN website. Other pronunciations included the Mugabe "[moo-GAHbee] regime" and pronunciations for countries "Kyrgyzstan [KEYRgeez-stan]" and "Mauritania [moor-EH-tain-ee-a]."
I seriously couldn't make this up if I tried. Can the qualifications for President be amended in the Constitution so that a thirty-five year old man or woman have some sort of education?
