Say It With Me Bush: kah-RAH-kus

[No Limit]

Apparently, a marked-up draft of the president's speech popped up on the U.N.'s website as President Bush delivered his remarks this morning before the General Assembly, USA TODAY's David Jackson reports. The draft included phonetic spellings of some names and countries, and the cellphone numbers for Bush speechwriters.

Press secretary Dana Perino downplayed the incident, and said phonetic spellings are used to help interpreters. Asked if the president has trouble pronouncing some country's names, Perino deemed it "an offensive question."

Heard this on the radio yesterday. Thought it was hilarious. Also on a similar note, this is for all you Americans; it's not pronounced eye-rak or eye-ran. It's not a ****ing apple product. Learn to pronounce it correctly or don't talk at all. You don't say eye-gnorant, you say ignorant.
