I am very reassured to have your expert opinion on the proper size of the Navy.

I wish the President could explain his thinking that well.

I do not care if the President said "corpse man" once. It is the most trivial complaint than anyone has made about him. He was reading off a teleprompter , most likely without rehearsing it. If he mispronounced "acetaminophen", the doctors would not get upset. If he said Grand Proicks, Pontiac owners would not get upset. This is a very, very stupid issue.


and when I bring it up a single time , you ping pong it back to me ad nausium, this is hardly the presidents worst faux pas , it probably won't make his top two hundred.

Common professor tactic....argue a point never really made   :o


    Less than that right number is wrong , no matter what it is compared with.

    This makes it perhaps right to reduce the Navy to the right number to get its job done with a few in harbor or dry dock and a couple of spares to replace battle loss.

     BUT here is the point, reducing the Navy to this right number ought to be the responsibility of people who can define well the job the Navy is required to do.

    In this our President is woefully deficient

If you do not want to be called a Johny One-Note dummy when you rant about the way that the President ONCE pronounced the word "corpse" man, just don't mention it at all. It reveals nothing about the man or his opinions.

   Really it does.

  If I had Spanish speaking people in my house and I deigned to speak to them what would you think of me?

That is entirely unclear.

One word, mispronounced while reading a teleprompter years ago is insignificant.

So you are really asking me to prove that President Obama has had more than one gaffe?


That is pretty easy.


Or are you asking me to gather together all of the hundreds of gaffes that President Obama has made on and off teleprompter?

That sounds like an enormous amount of work, is there any way I could get paid?

President Obama is a very good public speaker, far better than Juniorbush, Olebush or Cheney.

No.


Well ,when his speech is written for him and is shown on a teleprompter , he is pretty good. Under these circumstances he only flubs words he is unfamiliar with.

    Like military terms.

Note that in the English language, the letter S is vary rarely silent.

This is an incredibly trivial thing to get hung up about.

I did not bring this stupid topic up.

You do not want to hear again how stupid it is, refrain from mentioning it.

You have no one but yourself to blame.

Didn't say you did.  I said who keeps bringing it up adnauseum, as if it is a big deal, when it is an incredibly trivial issue??

More projection    ::)   ....So stop bringing it up.  Seems like you're the only one making hay out of an issue that every agrees is ridiculously trivial

Again, I did not being it up, Plane did, and claimed it was not trivial.

I have no idea what the poo you mean by "projection"  I am not projecting anything.

  I don't want to claim it is not trivial , I do reject the notion that it is a rare flub. The guy has a million of them only Vice president Biden might have more.


    That silent "s " is this characteristic of a French origin? Like gaffe and faux pas?

     This is just the sort of mistake I might make myself , especially with words I seldom hear.

     
Remember the time that Obama mentioned the 57 states? This accidentally got mentioned in the NYTimes three years later, in a story about how often Republicans were flubbing their lines.
