    Will he be using "English for Dummies" as a study guide?

      (lol)

      It is not nice to make fun of the most powerful man on the world.....

      As I'm sure all the people making fun like that are "liberals" and so by definition atheists and probably homosexuals. That would explain this lack of "Christian" charity towards a man who really "means" good and tries his best ....

      You should be ashamed of yourselves......

      But serioulsly now: will it be UK English or US English??

      It "ain't" the same.....

      lol

      Not to get all serious on a humor thread, but I have one of those "One A Day" calendars of Bush quotes, and truth is stranger than fiction. Some of the stuff our illustrious Prez has said is just mind-boggling.

          Well, at least, since he became President (and the most powerful man on the world...), he knows where Europe is situated. I think he even knows where Brussels is (You know, .... Nato headquarters...)

            Noooo, that's a "nasty" remark...

            It's not nice to laugh at people less educated than you...

            Not every body has the chance to go to good shools or even to highshool.....

            Shame on you...

            Now there's the problem. I bet they were from China and had lead based paint on 'em. No wonder he has so much difficulty. Such a pity. Ya think chelation therapy would help?

            Looking at his speech, I wonder if he still wears diapers!

            He has a nanny: Karen

            He has a baby-sitter- whatever-, Condi!

            I don't know if he still uses formula, or breast-feeding!

            Oh, all these questions and so few answers!

            Bush has proved clearly that many of the American people will vote for a chimp and that "chimpses," like "childrens," can almost learn English.

            I should add that most chimps, unlike the president, are nice people.

            LOL yeah Bush does have a way of making mincemeat out of syllables. It makes me cringe to listen to him speak, hoping he won't botch simple words but alas he just isn't very good speaking infront of a camera.

                  The article is not witty. See, English is the gooderest language out there," the President said. "We teached it to the Englandish peoples, and they agreed. 9-11. 9/11 is 911 the police emergency telephone number. WTC was destroyed on 9/11, 2001 because it is the same day, date and numbers as the national police emergency hot line telephone number. The media and Verizon as well as the local NYC/ NJ and Washington authorities knew attacks were going to materialize. They all had to know. No doubt about it, they knew it would be a NYC target, something any imbecile could hit without the slightest piloting ability. NYC/NJ carrying on like NAZIs around the clock was a definite engine as well as Verizon's endless statements over the phone lines and the media's general posturing.

                      I thought he was in a contest with Rove to see who could read the most books. Does this mean he can read but can't talk? Do you think he really just need a speech therapist?

                        I thought that I heard he spoke in English,anyway he was elected twice that shows that most of them voted for him understood what he said and it looks like they too need to join the same English language class that he suppose to join.

                            Yeah right, Dubya is just a regular guy that came from one of the wealthiest and well connected families on the East Coast (he's not from Texas). Bill Clinton was dirt poor and came from a broken home, managed to overcome that and was smart enough to win scholarships to get himself through college and was also a Rhodes Scholar. If it wasn't for the "affirmative action" given to the children of alumni of Harvard Dubya would have never had a chance to become the "cheerleader" that he is today. Yeah he's just a regular good ole' boy!

                                          Reality777,

                                          You do realize (I hope) we are on a humour forum.

                                          And yes, I'm sure GWB is laughing his head of at all the people who voted for him, so he could make himself, and his friends even richer on the US taxpayer's money.

                                          AND, while on the "English topic", can somebody explain to me why in English "gh" is usually pronounced [F]

                                          No wonder som many people are dyslexic

                                          Even the French don't do that...

                                          2. The brain (read the pre-speech notes, remember what country/state your in and look for the presidential advisor cutting his and across his/her throat, usually an indication to shut the fornication up)

                                          3. DON'T open your mouth until points 1 & 2 have been achieved....
