Bush: "Childrens Do Learn"
By Oliver Willis on September 26, 2007 3
No surprise, but the President Of The United States is a farking idiot.
As a candidate, George W. Bush once asked, "Is our children learning?"
On Wednesday, he had an answer.
"Childrens do learn," he said.
The setting was, yes, an education event where the president was taking credit for rising test scores and promoting congressional renewal of his signature education law. To create the right image, he summoned the city's school chancellor, a principal, some teachers and 20 eager students from P.S. 76.
The visual worked fine. The oral? Not so much. For Bush, it was a classic malapropism, the sort of verbal miscue that occasionally bedevils him in public speaking and provides his critics easy fodder for ridicule.
