Palin's odd and repetitious use of certain verbs |
|
Edited on Wed Nov-12-08 10:16 PM by nixonwasbetterthanW
Today's CNN interview reminds me that she has an extraordinarily limited vocabulary. At times she seems to have about a dozen verbs total in her arsenal, many of them just plain peculiar:
* Shorin' up (our industries, occasionally via what she calls "bellouts," which I think means "bailouts") * Usherin' in (solutions, a new presidential administration, etc.) * Progress (yes, she's now using this as a transitive verb, as in "let's progress this nation") * Impacting (on the future of America) * Not lookin' backwards (to the campaign, even though she's happy to reassert her "concern" about the Bill Ayers connection)

8. I Feel Great Pity for Sarah Palin, and Anybody Who Has To Deal With Her For Even a Minute |
|
Sarah, because she's obviously incapable, and everybody else, because they have to deal with it.

13. I saw a quote from her where she used "let's progress this nation" or something like it. |
|
Nobody in their right mind talks that way.
