Hooked on Phonix

My second grade English teacher, Sister Mary Woopassowicz is rolling over in her grave.
But wait, like a popeil pocketfisherman commercial, it gets better but you must order now. Operators are standing by. The chimperor nails the Daily Double:
"I appreciate the fact that you really snatched defeat out of the jaws of those who were trying to defeat us in Iraq."-- George W. Bush to Lt. General Ray Odierno today, as quoted by the Associated Press.
Yogi Berra also is rolling in his grave. I think I'll roll something too......

As part of my grad studies for an MA in English, I teach developmental writing. The Idiot in Chief provides me with a constant source of examples of mangled language and bad grammar to use in the classroom.
