......the modern
inhabitants of Greece are referred to, in English as
Greeks. ONLY as Greeks. Period. Full stop. The end.

'Grecian' is ONLY an adjective, never a noun.

Got it, possum-****er?

Pick up a tube of KY for your next roadkill. Nice name. It fits.

Don't forget DURING the 2000 campaign, Bush once
referred to the inhabitants of Greece as the "Grecians".

Let's not forget the classic: Hispanical

Did he really say that? When and where? I don't
object to beating up on the guy for his boneheaded
utterances, but make sure they're real. The only
references I could find to bush+hispanical in Google
were on satirical pages.

It certainly is something I think he *could* say.

I watched him say it on TV during his campaign. I'll see what I can find for
you. Meanwhile:

it is a product that we can find in our neighborhoods."-Austin, Texas, Dec.

LOL. Your internet searches failed to find any of the numberous sites that
define "Grecian" as a "a native or inhabitant of Greece".

So here's a link for you:

Awhile ago, Harry posted the results of a poll which showed that the 18-29
year old age group supports Kerry. I think we've found the answer "why":


"A new Gallup poll says that 53 percent of Americans between the ages of 18
to 29 do not know who the USA fought in Europe during World War II."

Democrats. The party for the uninformed.

The poll says nothing of what percentage of those polled were either
Republican, or Democrat. Are you too stupid to understand ANYTHING?

That's a good point. If it were *all* Democrats, the number would have been
much higher than 53%.

You just love showing your ignorance, huh? That statement is nothing
short of stupid.
