Many people mispronounce it, including former President George W Bush. Irritates, but hardly newsworthy.

“Nucular” seems to rhyme so well with “Macaca” and “Makaka”... don’t want to be niggardly with respect to our rhyming. And, what the hell is a “cree deeds”?

Of course and it gets even sillier than that since there is virtually no one that pronounces it correctly... and this includes all those folks that don't prounounce it nook-you-luhr.

Many people mispronounce it, including

including the former nuclear navy officer Jimmy Carter. Is it possible that it's a southern thing?

I grew up in Amarillo, Texas. Everyone pronounced it nucular. Midland is just down the road.
