![]() "Gould 0738" wrote in message ... "Satircal in nature", yeah right. The dishonest part was that he neglected to tell the folks he was reporting to that it was "satircal" and any of them would get a very negative opinion, based on half truths and dishonest framing of the article. Can't comment on the article, as I haven't been able to find a copy on line. (If you know where I can find a copy it would be interesting to see). A satirist doesn't start with a disclaimer: "The following work is a satire." The article may or may not be good satire. If it *is* good satire, there are people who might not read it carefully or who strive to represent the article in a certain light who will not recognize it. Good satire sneaks up on you......you begin reading it and then you finally realize that the author is just putting you on. Once you're clued in, the remainder of the article becomes particularly funny. . Are you guys all reading out of the same play book? No. The world is not comprised of a series of absolute stereotypes. (I know that isn't what you're sold by much of the right wing media, "libs this, all libs that, etc"), Everybody who disagrees with you, including the huge percentage of the country who have serious doubts about your beloved Bush, isn't guilty of treason and sedition. A huge percentage have serious doubt about Bush? How about far less than a majority. According to the latest polls, anywhere from 54% to 64% of Americans approve of the way GWB is doing his job. http://www.pollingreport.com/BushJob.htm Sorry Chuck...the "huge percentage" is actually in favor of GWB. ;-) |

majority. According to the latest polls, anywhere from 54% to 64% of Americans approve of the way GWB is doing his job. Never said it was a majority. Merely a huge, (rather than insignificant) percentage. Read for content, please. |

Read for content, please. Please learn definition of the word huge. I posted it for you to save time: huge (click to hear the word) (hyj) adj. hug·er, hug·est 1. Of exceedingly great size, extent, or quantity. See Synonyms at enormous. 2. Of exceedingly great scope or natu the huge influence of the Hellenic world. Sorry Chuckie, but a *huge* percentage of Americans *support*, not doubt, GWB. Brush up on your grammar skills, please. |

He is just fine with the grammar skills, he is just intellectually dishonest and good at goosestepping... |

He is just fine with the grammar skills, he is just intellectually dishonest and good at goosestepping... The meaning of "huge" fits perfectly well into the way Chuckster used it. The word is not finitely defined. It isn't one of those BORG binary words, eh? By the way, it is a huge mistake to consider the art of "defining" words as part of grammar. Grammar deals with inflexional forms of a language or other means of indicating the relations of words in the sentence, and with the rules for employing these in accordance with established usage. It also usually includes the phonetic system of the language and the principles of its representation in writing. -- Email sent to is never read. |

By the way, it is a huge mistake to consider the art of "defining" words as part of grammar. Grammar has everything to do with the proper use of words when conveying an idea or opinion. You think not? |

The word is not finitely defined. It isn't one of those BORG binary words, eh? Who made you dictionary king? That is your opinion....I stated mine. My two degrees in English, perhaps, my long career as a professional writer, and my collection and use of many dictionaries, none of which are the on-line type you like? There is no finite definition for "huge" in the dictionary. A standard definition is as follows: Very great, large, or big; immense, enormous, vast. Not finite. Do you understand the term finite? By the way, it is a huge mistake to consider the art of "defining" words as part of grammar. Grammar has everything to do with the proper use of words when conveying an idea or opinion. You think not? Hehehe. You're wrong, as usual. I gave you the definition of grammar. The art of defining words is not a part of grammar. You obviously don't know what the definition of grammar is, either. What is it that you do know? -- Email sent to is never read. |
