My male friends all seem to have the same assessment of the Republican nominee for the vice presidency of the United States: She's pretty hot.
I guess that depends on what you mean by hot. If GOP leaders had intended to pick on the basis of pulchritude, I would have suggested perhaps a Scarlett Johansson lookalike. Instead they chose a Tina Fey clone. But apparently much of America is willing to vote for her based on her looks. The GOP better hope so. She sure isn't going to win based on her brains.
We got a hint of that during her supposedly brilliant acceptance speech at the GOP convention. In the midst of the predictable diatribe at the media, Palin denounced pundits. That's fine, but she pronounced the word "pundints," adding a nonexistent "n" to the second syllable.
My fellow conservatives made fun of Sean Penn last year when he employed that same mispronunciation as part of a tirade against the Bush administration. And deservedly so. We conservatives are smart. People who can't pronounce simple, two-syllable words aren't.
That goes for simple three-syllable words as well. In a televised interview with Fox News last week, Palin was served a softball question by Sean Hannity about the economy. In her response, she twice attacked the "verbiage" of her opponents. And in both cases, she pronounced it "verbage," leaving out the second syllable. Again this is the sort of thing that, if done by a Sean Penn or some other Hollywood airhead, would be held up as evidence of inferior intelligence. An intelligent person rises above such errors by eighth grade, an average person by the end of high school.

I appreciate this new standard which I expect will be applied equally throughout the campaign: Anyone who mispronounces a word is officially “too stupid” to be president or VP.
Just an FYI Paul Mulshine: When I pronounce your name Paul Mulesh*t, it’s not because I’m stupid. It’s because I DON’T LIKE YOU.
By the way, a note for all the libtard pundiNts: It’s pronounced PRES-I-DENT ... not PRESN’NT. If you can find me one libtard that pronounces it right I’ll give you a cookie.
I am always mispronouncing Obama as Dumb$#!t.
er uh NO ah er uh COM er ah oh MENT.....BO....
>> This ‘pundint’ is appalled by Palin’s ‘verbage’
It’s part of the strategery - go unwind your panties sunshine.
no, that’s actually the correct pronounciation
Some of us.
My tern now?
Ha! the birdin's on ewe!
“hugh and series”
Don’t fall off your high horse there butt monkey (gee, I hope I said that correctly).
vergina?
I guess he is too focused on Palin to notice Joe Biden sounding like porky pig when he says “Bwack Obwama.”
:) - I’d be lion if I said I could keep up. (waving a white flag)
Yet when X42 made that inane statement WE, the public who criticized him for it, were trashed as being to stupid to understand the depth of his words.
I guess everyone is a PUD..INT!!!
I'm originally from West by-God Virginia and we mangle most words! ("Warsh Cloth," "Warshington DC", "Let's go swim in the 'crick'," etc.) And who the heck does he think he is anyway? He's from Joy-zey - not exactly know as the land of elocution! (no offense to any of you from Jersey).
LOL!
thanks for the p(h)un!
At least she didn’t call for a paralyzed man in a wheelchair to stand up so the crowd could see him!
One of the truisms on the internet is when you are losing the argument attack the other guys spelling. A corollary is that when you are losing the argument attack the other guys pronounciation.
