How long will it take American English to recover from Bushisms

[Jackpine Radical]

and wingnuttery?

How long before people can once again finish the old saying "Fool me once...?"
How long before we can return to spelling it "Moron?"
How long before you quit needing to put food on your family?
How long before "strategery" loses the extra letters?

I fear that neither America nor the language will ever recover from the Buffoon-in-Chief, the Decider.

1. Not to mention using the google on the internets. I was thinking about this the other day as well.

2. Sorry, I've taken a liking to using "the internets"

I fear I may never give that one up!

5. I know how you feel! It is a permanent part of my vocabulary now.

3. A very long time

We have been letting * hold the English language hostile for too long. :-)

6. that would make a great protest sign: "Free the English Language!" only some wingnut would mistake

it for an anti-immigration sign.

4. We can't misunderestimate that.

7. let's not forgot those poor ob/gyns

who can no longer practice their love with women across the nation.

8. As one who works in English education, I'd have to say never.

we're too far gone.

9. That's Bushspeak, it's not American English

We make fun of him in American English. :)

10. It depends on whether Americans can recover from Bushista misrule.

If there are no survivors, the language won't matter.
