"I know how hard it is for you to put food on your
family." -Greater
Nashua,
N.H., Jan. 27, 2000

It is rather difficult to put food on the family.

Nothing wrong with this statement.

Just as there's nothing wrong with "Rarely is the
question
asked,
'Is
our children learning?'"

Two months into his first term he said, "You can fool
some
of
the
people all the time, and those are the ones you want to
concentrate
on." Yeah, like the 30% of Americans who are still
stupid
enough
to
support him.


"This process has been drug out a long time," Bush added.
"It's
political."

Drug out. Sure.


That is past tense for drag....in Texas lingo....LOL

These libbies have no feeling for humor.


Your president did not mean his comment to be humorous.

How do you know that to be a fact?

Context gives a huge hint.

BTW, you New Yorkers talk funny too.
Sometimes I wonder what in hell did he say.

New Yorker? NYS or NYC? Upstate: the "flat a" (from CNY, on west)
is
as
difficult as it gets if the person's a native NY-er (vs. having
accented
English, if they immigrated after age ~12.) The only semi-problem
I've
ever
noticed in the 30+ years I've lived up here is that sometimes the
word
"pal"
= "pale", re: pronunciation. That's as tricky as it gets. NYC -
Brooklyn
or Queens: you mean you can't understand a person if they speak in
Archie
Bunker mode?

I know this for a fact, based on the context in which he said
it.
But,
that
doesn't matter. When he's commenting on serious matters of
government,
humor
is inappropriate.

Like I said, you New Yorkers talk funny, almost another language
as
per
GWB and the South, but that's ok. You see we in the hinterland
are
more
tolerant of other dialects. You should become more worldly

Saying this to a person who lives on the east coast, & esp. one who
lives
nr. NYC - where there has historically been a huge & varied
immigrant
population, along with their attendent languages/dialects, is
ridiculous.
I
live upstate - not near a port city, yet we have substantial
populations
of
Russians, Bosnians, various Middle Easterners, Poles... many of
whom
are
recently or newly arrived, still speak their native languages, &
are
in
the
process of learning English.

Cathy

I don't have a problem with NY accent, nor do I have a problem with
Southern accents, nor with GWB or Texans.

?? Then why did you type this? --> "BTW, you New Yorkers talk funny
too.
Sometimes I wonder what in hell did he say."

Cathy

Well, gee whiz you do. BTW I sometimes wonder when I am on the phone,
what in hell did she/he say,

Okay, this is just going around in circles...

If that is the case, then why did you say, "I don't have a problem with
NY
accent..." ? This just isn't making sense. You;'re saying one thing,
then
doing a 180, back & forth...

Whatever...

Cathy

You are a typical NYer, uptight and outa sight. Chill out.

HUH? You say one thing, then say the complete oppiste. And that make sme
"up tight"?

Watch the birds

It's dark; the birds all went to bed quite a while ago! Fed the
neighborhood squirrels & crows earlier, though.

and have some of that special cider.

None in the house; but might look for some wine or have have some B&B...

Smoke a cigar, do
something kinky.

Heh - laundry, more like it.

Cathy
