It's also just so great how he is constantly turned either 45 degrees to the left or right while speaking, often with his snoot in the air and his eyes lidded with self-satisfaction.
But I don't expect the mainstream media to go after Obama for this as they went after, for example, Quayle for "potatoe."
Because, what with all their journalistic integrity and all, Quayle was an enemy to be destroyed while Obama should be covered for, as he is their man.

I'm pretty sure, at least I hope, he knows how to say corpsman. But this just tells you how much he relies on teleprompters and doesn't really think about what he is saying.

I actually remember pronouncing it "corpse-man" when I was a young boy and my mom correcting me with a smile and a chuckle. (My mom wasn't even a Harvard law professor if you can believe that)

This is the guy who is one step below God in the chain of command for a military that is so alien to him he cannot even pronounce the title for it's medical personnel.
Dan Quayle was mercilessly beaten into roadkill because he misspelled potato. P O T A T O. This clod doesn't even know what his own troops are called and we get chirping crickets.

Now now now, there's no such thing as media bias. Several of the leftists on the board have informed us of this.
The journalistic integrity of CBS, NBC, ABC, The New York Times, the Washington Post, et al. would never allow such a double-standard of treatment.
First of all, stop referring to non-fox news outlets as mainstream. they are peripheral. Second, I would bet that most professors at harvard, yale and princeton would have to think before pronouncing corpsman. Third,...why am i defending obama...i'm beginning to dislike him too. Oh, and fourth, palin is dumb. There's no need for her to mispronounce any more words. Although i do agree with the point about his egregious teleprompter focus while speaking. A Quayle comparison? really? quayle's comment about hawaii reminded of russia being in palin's back yard. Let's remember just how dumb quayle was:
improper use of verisimilitude notwithstanding, i get what you're saying...wait. are you really defending palin's intelligence? she was presenting geographic proximity as proof of her international relations bona fides. does not compute.
sincerely,
fraudulist
p.s. don't take offense to anything i say generally speaking. i like posting here because i want to know what other people who like to move heavy things think about important issues. this sounds ghey but sometimes we forget that we're all americans and want the same things for our country.
And your presenting a false assertion, and demonstrating that you did not bother to take the advice to learn what was actually said, shows something positive about your bona fides?

I disagree. Trust me when I say there is a pretty good chance I want something different for America than you do (based strictly on what I've seen you post in your brief PWI career).
Speaking of intelligence, you wouldn't happen to be a Harvard law professor, would you? If so, did you know that medics who serve in the Navy are actually dead men?
