In order that we might all raise the level of discourse and expand our language abilities, here is the daily post of “word for the day”. Rules: Everyone must leave a post using the “word of the day”; in a sentence. The sentence must, in some way, relate to the news of the day. The Review threads are linked for your edification. ;-) Practice makes perfect.....post on....
Today we mourn the passing of a Great American.
Americas Longest serving Senator, and War Hero, And a pretty manly man by any account

********************************************************************************************************************************
Good Morning Class. Welcome to School!
Here is my example with WFTD:
In the span of one week, Two men died. The First Lester Maddox, was one of the names that became synonomous with Racism in the 60s, but to read his obit in the NYTimes, you would not know it. OF course it took half of the Obit to get around to the fact that he was of course a Democrat.
In contrast, Americas longest serving Senator Died Last night, A man of many accomplishments he lived to be 100, Stormed the Beach at Normandy taking Nazis prisoner at the point of the Pistol, winning the Bronze star, and fathering children IN HIS Seventies.
What did the headline in the Times read..."Strom Thurmond Foe of Integration Dies at 100
The author????? Adam the clymer Clymer.
Giving Credence to the credibilty of The President and the Vice President, the manis truly a major league @$$hole.
