Contrast his exacting care in pronouncing Pakistan with his inexcusable mispronunciation of corpsman as "corpse-man". He was referring to a navy corpsman, and said "corpse-man" twice in the same speech.

The mispronunciation of "Navy corpsman" is especially inexcusable since there are plenty of videos from the 2008 primary and election run when he correctly pronounced "press corps" as press core. I always try to link the two in posts to underscore his deliberate usage. It wasn't a gaffe any more than the constant middle finger face rub during the debates and in campaign speeches. Consider using both to strengthen the point.

have a good one
