Learn to type.
Then you won’t embarrass yourself.
I’m sure he/she will find other ways…
I’m just hoping he comes from your side of the aisle and not mine!
No.., really.., you take him, I insist!
ema- <3
Its ok jenessa hater, you can swear on the internet.
your mommy isn’t going to be reading it
actually I’m just pointing out an indisputable fact: she said the word wrong numerous times
I seriously wanted to like her… she was speaking in full sentences…
then came “nucular?”
Dang it.
You guys must really hate 24…
.. Those were run-on sentences … if you didn’t catch it by listening ( I didn’t ) try wading thru the transcript – Jibberish.
There are different ways to pronounce it.
Yes, different and wrong.
Some dictionaries have begun to include this incorrect pronunciation, but most don’t and hopefully never will.
Some of those that do, also mention that it is as informal or slang, and that the preferred pronunciation is nōō’klē-ər or nyōō’klē-ər.
They’re called nuclear weapons because their energy is derived from the nucleus of an atom. Unless you’re willing to call a nucleus a “new-cue-luss”, Palin’s pronounciation of the word is completely and utterly wrong.
PRONUNCIATION & KNOWLEDGE FAIL
Ok so I was having a discussion with a friend of mine about pronounciation of different words. We came to the conclusion that there is never a “right” or “wrong” way, there is just the most widely accepted and proliferated version of a pronounciation, based on geographical/pheonetical/cultural grounds, not to meantion nation/language of origin.
We KNOW what she’s saying…so why get pissy about it? Because some stuffed jeckets in an office somewhere decided to print a book that tells you how to say it/ For Christ’s sake, the latest version of the Oxford Dictionary included LOL and Muggle…
Well thank god for you and your friend clarifying this for the rest of the world. Please be sure to have all text books rewritten to allow for uneducated apes to mispronounce and mizpell whatever they wish.
The strawman. It hurts my eyes.
…..
i’m sick and tired and have been at work for two hours…
i don’t get what you mean…
A strawman argument is where someone exaggerates or alters your point of view and then argues against the inaccurate hyped up version of it, because they cannot think of a reasonable response to the actual viewpoint.
oh wa wa wa, you’ve been at work for 2 hours. try working a 17 hour shift on your feet doing heavy lifting then you can whinge
Lol, I wasn’t saying my friend and I are right.
I’m just pointing out the stupidity of an argument about pronounciation….
It’s an opinion…not a fact.
But COME ON! “LOL”? In a dictionary?
Somewhere, Noah Webster is rolling in his grave i think..
You mean lolling in his grave.
The point is not that she’s saying it improperly. The point is that she, like McCain, are proposing another four years of failed Bush policies. Pronouncing Nuclear the same W does, just reinforces the fact that McCain/Palin are just like Bush/Cheney – awful for our country and our standing in the world.
There is one correct way to pronounce “nuclear”
It is NOT “nucular.”
There is not a second ‘u’ sound in the word.
Your comment is simply the most ignorant and dishonest thing I’ve read lately. If I were you, I’d leave.
There are two ways, because different people pronounce the word ‘new’ differently due to their accent. But otherwise, you are right.
So now “stupid” is an accent? LOL. whodafuckinthunkit.
Not to take sides here, but I’d like to point out that Eisenhower, Clinton, and Carter were all known to use the “Nuke-yoo-lar” pronunciation (among other notable people) – and Carter was a farking nuclear reactor Engineer. If Bush and Palin were the only notable people to pronounce it that way, it’d be one thing; but as much as it bugs me (and I really do hate it when people use the incorrect pronunciation), you’re going to have to include Carter, Clinton, et al in your “stupid people” list if using the incorrect pronunciation indicates stupidity.
clinton = arkansas
carter = georgia
palin = idaho/alaska
so what is the excuse of using a texas/southern dialect when you do not have a texas or southern dialect?
Being Republican.
I was wondering how long it would take before someone got on her about that. Just goes to show you its not just the southerners that pronounce things incorrectly.
I said it in another thread and I’ll say it again…..after the last 8 years, I don’t think that it will EVER be pronounced correctly
lawl youre probably right.
We never hear much about her husband, has he ever done any interviews? He seems nice.
Not sure. My grandfather is acquainted with Todd’s uncle as I understand it, but since my grandfather is staunchly anti-Republican I can’t really ask him anything without him going into crotchety old fossil mode.
Todd’s uncle used to run one of the big paving businesses here in Southwest Washington, and my grandfather was Business Manager of a trade union local.
What company did he work for? I’ve got family that has been involved in Columbia Gorge Roads for the past 30 years (I think they got bought out by some Texas company a couple years ago though).
Lakeside Industries
That’s kind of amazing, here we all are on the internet talking and someone actually knows someone that knows a relative of the person we are talking about. It’s really a small world…
Now I’m getting scared since I probably know someone who knows someone who knows someone who knows one of you. Yikes!
(It’s also much more interesting than wondering why someone can’t pronounce the word nuclear!)
The whole 6 degrees of separation thing really is true. Often its less. Definitely a small world.
ema you amaze me!
I agree, “6 degrees” much more fun then pronounciation bickers
He did an interview with Greta Van Susteren for Fox. That’s the only one I know of.
Thanks, I’m going to look for that, might be interesting. Hey, your blog url still isn’t working btw. Takes you to some Qwest page.
Sorry about that. They switched blogger to blogspot on me a while ago.
Greta Van Susteren did. It wasn’t much other than Todd speaking how great Sarah is and Greta agreeing.
Try reading Michelle Obama’s writings. Quite the opposite of ass kissing.
Doesn’t he want Alaska to secede from the US?
Idk if that is necessarily something bad~
I’m sure he’s a pleasant man.
he’s kinda hot. i’d hit that.
dont be a qv33r. u no ur stupid and rong but ur too 9@y to admit.
Were you dropped on your head at birth?
I think she dropped something on the keyboard, that’s the only thing that can account for the random posts.
Ever had your cat jump into you lap and then slam his paws down on the keyboard to mess you up because you’re not paying attention to him? I think that’s what’s happening to Jenessa Hater.
Seriously, dude. You’re just embarrassing yourself.
Picking a fight on a picture’s comments with a total
stranger…. How big of a failure can you be, huh?
haha u think ur funny well watch this, ill nuke ur mom.
lol internet.
Whee! I loooove the crazies! *points and laughs*
Would that be nuculer mom?
I wish we could post pictures in these comments…I have a great one to describe the craziness quotient of this dumbass. There are no words.
Er… Okay?

Worst comment thread ever.
I wish people who did nothing but call names wouldn’t try butting in on intelligent conversation, and would learn to laugh at things like people pronouncing nuclear “nu-cyu-lar”. It’s funny, whether you like her or not.
Used to be funny, but with 8 years of Bush we got tired of it. Not to mention that most Americans actually pronounce it incorrectly. It’s just that it rarely comes up in conversation so you don’t notice.
I mean really. Even these rednecks here in Georgia – and there’s a lot of them – pronounce it nu-kleer. It’s not that hard. *sigh*
I’m wondering why no one has given her credit for being the first person in the history of the universe to pronounce Ahmadinejad’s name correctly. And she said it FOUR times.
… um it’s spelt Ahmenidijad and lots of people know how to say it right. it’s not admirable to pronounce it right, it’s insulting to pronounce it wrong
Not according to Wikipedia:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mahmoud_Ahmadinejad
Although Google comes up with lots of references with that spelling.
526 references to Jenessa’s spelling, 10.7 million to the proper one, to be precise
Well that was a bit of a whoops. It’s reasons that that I try to always use words like “I believe” or “I think” when stating something.
wikipedia, while one of my favorite inventions, is still not considered a reliable source
What about Google?
“Mahmoud Ahmadinejad” – 4,320,000 results
“Mahmoud Ahmenidijad” – 55 results
You invented wikipedia?!
She and algore
Click my name for a funny comic lol.
lol! Funny, but sad…
I love Sinfest. Win!
seconded.
Thanks, but I know how to spell his name. Good try though sweetie.
actually clearly you don’t
Really? Would you care to provide a reference for your spelling? Or are you just a really bad troll? I suggest you double check whatever source you use, because it’s wrong, and you look like an idiot going around incorrectly criticizing people’s spelling.
CHOO! CHOO!
I like to “spelt” it “I’ma-whack-job”.
LOL!
“Not to mention that most Americans actually pronounce it incorrectly.”
Here on the west coast, people tend to pronounce it NOO-CLEE-ER, and those who don’t are the dropouts, gas station attendants, or transplants from the south.
I’m about 40 miles from Portland and hear “nook-u-ler” all the time… well not all the time, people don’t really say it much. But when referring to the now deceased power plant, that’s how people often pronounced it.
If there is any division about who says it one way or another, it’s age, not intelligence. Though your attempt to link pronunciation of a single word as the end all, be all of intelligence is amusing.
“I’m about 40 miles from Portland and hear “nook-u-ler” all the time”
Amazing the difference 40 miles makes, isn’t it?
Dude, I’m a dropout, and I still pronounce it noo-clee-er. Judging people’s intelligence or willingness to learn by formal education level fail.
I heard Harrison Ford pronounce it “nu-cue-ler” not that long ago……and he hates Bush……
I’m honestly hoping people don’t actually believe how one pronounces one word out of the hundreds of thousands of words they pronounce _correctly_ reflects on their intelligence. I know people like to jab Bush and Palin for it, but I certainly hope they don’t believe its some kind of gauge of intelligence.
Internet leftist radicals seem to have a hard time with the concept of intelligence though. Lack of experience means you’re unintelligent. Poor leadership skills means you’re unintelligent. Mispronunciation of a couple words means you’re unintelligent. And then if anyone on the right does anything seemingly intelligent, they always say someone else was responsible or they got lucky.
I’ll say this though: It’s easy to criticize pronunciation when you’re typing on the Internet and we can’t hear how YOU say things!
Yeah, I really don’t care how she pronounces it either, in fact, I didn’t even notice that she HAD pronounced it that way during the debate. Maybe no one else was actually listening to WHAT the candidates said rather then HOW they said it? That makes me said for the state of American voters if that’s the case.
Sad, sad! Damn it…
It’s okay, Jane, we all know you’d never do that on purpose.
Actually, Southerners are not the only ones who mispronounce words. For the record, the sonofabitch is not even FROM Texas, he was just moved here as a child.
Just because he moved there as a child doesn’t exclude him from being a Texan, trust me. If you live most of your life in a place, you become ‘from’ that place.
Maybe, but a lot of people pronounce
it that way, so it’s not that big a deal.
In fact, half the people I know pronounce
it that way. It irks me, but not to the point
that I’d bash somebody for it. I got used to
it over time, and if someone wants to say it
that way, so what… Then people like that guy
come along and try to pick a little pissy fight
with total strangers in a forum, and he can’t
even TYPE something right… That’s a lol.
lol
If any Washington politician tried to bring this up, they need to explain where the hell the letter R is in Washington. I sweat to God I know 3rd graders that know better.
That’s more of an accent thing… if I understand what you’re getting at.
Isn’t that something Oregonians made up to piss off Warshingtonians for years of mispronunciation?
It’s a accent thing. It comes from being lazy. I don’t do it any more, because someone pointed it out to me.
Hey, it ain’t much better than northerners saying ‘wuder’ for water.
Or ‘pop’ for soda. ;D
SODA POP.
Pop for Soda isn’t wrong it’s a dialect thing! Say Soda here in Indiana and people will look at you blankly.
Ask for anything but “Coke” where I’m from and you will get weird looks,. Here’s how a normal drink order goes at a restaurant: “What do you want to drink?” “Coke.” “What kind? We have Sprite, Regular Coke, Dr. Pepper, etc.” “I’ll have Sprite.” “I’ll bring it right out.” ….. “Honey, what did you order from the waitress?” “Coke.” “What kind?” And the process repeats
“Coke” is the generalization for all carbonated drinks down here that aren’t beer
And Australia usually uses the term ’soft drink’ for that.
Actually, ‘fizzy drink’ is just as popular. Especially with kids. Shortened to ‘fizzy’. Sometimes.
True true, but I find soft drink is the slightly preferred term.
Even more common, I find, is to refer to the drinks individually; Coke, Fanta, Pepsi, Solo, lemonade etc.
I usually say what I want which would be Solo if they have it, Lift in a pinch. I only wish we had Dr. Pepper!
Jane, you must be in a northern part.
I’m in southern Indiana, and we all say soda.
We gank people who say ‘pop’, hehehe….
-
No, not really. We just have the same stare.
and froofrou, we also say Coke, lol.
I forgot to mention that.
You’re right, I am in the North, I never thought it would be different. Actually, my dad was in the Army and I didn’t move here until I was an adult, but my mom is from here so we grew up saying ‘pop’ like she does.

I once told a class of first graders to put their sneakers on before going outside to gym and I had a whole stream of kids going, “What are sneakers? Do I have sneakers? What about me?” I have yet to figure out if people around her just don’t call them sneakers of if it was because they were first graders.
It’s “tennis shoes”, which you have to slur into “tennyshoes” for people to understand you
I prefer “runners”, and it is what nearly everyone I know says.
NUCULAR TENNYSHOES AND SODY POPS FOR ALL!
I’m from Wisconsin, go to college in MN and have no idea what you’re talking about.
Must be Canada.
It is Canada as well as where you are. You don’t realise you are doing because the accent is natural to you.
As an Australian, I can say that nearly every variety of American accent I know,it sounds like ‘wuder’.
No, I never hear wuder. I disagree.
Chiming in from my experiences in New England, “water” is pronounced something like “warder”, only with mostly silent “r”s.
We in the midwest throw R’s into words because the New Englanders are always leaving them out. We feel sorry for the little fellers.
I used to tease my former boss about the way he said wash. He threw the ‘r’ in there every time! We’d get him to say “warsh” over the radio at the plant simply to mess with him about it! “What was that again, Bill? You need us to do what to the floors?” “Warsh the floors, dammit, and quit making fun of me!”
My girl’s mom is from Seattle so she does that too.
BAHNEY! GET IN THE CAH!
I watched the debates. I thought Sarah Palin did rather poorly, and it wasn’t just because of her mispronounciation of the word “nuclear”. Still, the way she kept saying “nucular” was funny.
I thought she debated poorly, which was an order of magnitude better than I expected.
On the other hand, I thought she did an reasonably effective job of needling Biden and Obama.
Sadly, many people won’t notice or care that she didn’t answer the questions.
Right after the debate the commentators kept saying she did a very good job. I have no idea what debate the were watching.
It is actually very depressing that people don’t actually care she didn’t answer most of the questions at all, and kept repeating herself.
I think the expectations were so low that debating poorly was not only accepted but congratulated.
And miss-pronouncing the word nuclear (20 times at least) the same way Bush has been made fun of for pronouncing it, when your party has been trying to distance themselves from him.. is in no way a good thing
To be fair only Internet trolls actually care about the nuclear thing. The vast majority of Americans cant pronounce it right themselves.
And you don’t think that is a problem?
for real, people, they pronounce it that way for a reason. it’s deliberate. strategic. Bush went to Yale and Harvard. He was born in New Haven. HE KNOWS HOW TO PRONOUNCE IT. They know that the vast majority of rural Americans pronounce it that way. It’s a way of letting the know that they “speak their language”. It also has the added benefit of making Democrats look like total pretentious a-holes, thereby alienating millions of voters. This is all tactical, stop complaining about crap like this, and learn to fight.
Haha no.
As a matter of fact, no, I don’t. There are a lot of problems with Palin. Her pronunciation of “nuclear” isn’t one of them. She seemed to understand that bad guys with nukes is bad, and that’s all that matters.
way to simplify it. anyone who knows anything about Iran will tell you that Ahmadinejad has no real authority, and certainly not over the military. Iran’s 10 years away from a nuke. North Korea most likely has one (or several), built under the watch of the Bush Admin. Pakistan has them, a country that first armed the Taliban in the 1990’s and supported them until we invaded Afghanistan- and we all remember how cozy Bush was with Musharraf. The Republicans have botch or national security for the last 8 years, and people are now prepared to let them continue?? Makes no sense. At all. Only Obama/Biden have a clear, realistic plan for securing nukes and stabilizing rogue nations.
Obama/Biden have a clear plan for securing *our* nukes. I don’t think the nuts running “rogue” nations will be impressed with that gesture and decide to do the same. I don’t understand the point of doing it at all.
That would make the US the ultimate bad guy then, huh?
Much of the world feels that way, yes.
AND WHY IS THIS? BECAUSE OF EIGHT YEARS OF REPUBLICANS! IT IS TIME FOR A CHANGE!
Well, his statement was “bad guys with nukes [are] bad” not “people with nukes are bad”, so that argument’s moot.
It was because people set low expectations for her. It’s like having a kindergartener debate a college student. People don’t expect the kindergartener do good, but if they manage to just get up there people say “Well, it was good for HER”. True, Biden does have significantly more expirience than Palin, but they are both trying to get the same position so the bar needs to be set at the same level for both of them.
Yay for accents/dialects
It’s múch worse here in Holland, and much more fun
um people, this isn’t an accent, it’s a mispronunciation. an accent is like having “o” sound like “aw” in New york, or shortening “you all” to y’all” in the south. Saying nucular is flat out wrong, it’s not a part of a different dialect
Where you’re from maybe. That’s an accent thing where I’m from and many other places in the country. Would you say southerners calling salmon “sammon” is a mispronunciation as well? That’s silly of you.
She’s known to be silly.
the ‘l’ is (mostly) silent.
Thank you.
Would you rather, A: she pronounced it correctly? Or B: knew how dangerous it is to allow nutjob dictators have it? I’ll take B.
Well put!
Is A and B so hard?
win for piman
They seem to be mutually exclusive!
Pssst…in this context, it’s IT’S
Didn’t Hillarys husband (;)) pronounce it nucular too?
AHAHAHAA
This reminds me of one of Margaret Cho’s jokes about George Bush.

“FOOL IT’S NU-CLEE-ER”
But no, I want to punch Palin in the forehead.
And I wanna bitch slap Obama.
So meant to put [insert Palin MILF joke]. Damn greater/less than signs.
You can prevent these symbols disappearing into the html by typing a special code. I seem to recall is being & l t ; for ‘<’ and & g t ; for ‘>’.
This will look so redundant if the above doesn’t work.
good, it worked. Just remove the spaces between the & and the ;.
Why thank you! I completely forgot about those.

Yes.
But why do you mention it?
Look at the caption again.
Indeed.
Belongs on failblog, it does.
I wouldn’t want to call this site BIASED, but why the sudden overflow of Republican pix available for LIBERAL trashing, but pix of OBAMA & sidekick BIDEN are strangely not made available for the same treatment?
Upload one yourself, whiner. And look back a page or two for an actual Obama Lol!
Because Republicans lack the creative gene. Name some conservative comedians, song writers, poets, artists, film makers, actors that aren’t either god awful or milling about in near obscurity.
To be fair, most of the liberal lols aren’t that funny either. The only get voted up because they make a political statement that people agree with, not because they are funny. I could make a lol right now that’s a picture of George Bush and has a caption that says, “Hi. I am an idiot.” and it would be voted very highly despite having no humor value whatsoever. It probably wouldn’t make it to the front page, since that’s not based purely on votes, but still.
Or have been pushed out. I’m talking REAL conservatives, not Arnie conservatives. Most conservatives in Hollywood will never admit it because they’ll never work much again. There are several famous conservatives who are risking their careers to make An American Carol.
Kelsey Grammar, Dennis Hopper, Kevin Farley (obscure, sure, but Chris Farley’s brother), Toby Keith……….there are more. It’s a blanket generalization that all conservatives are WASPy Bible-thumpers who wouldn’t know humor if it slapped them in the face. And it’s dead wrong. Conservative is the new gay in Hollywood *sigh*
Being Conservative in Hollywood is the same as speaking out against Scientology in Hollywood. You just don’t do it. If you do, you better hope you’re super-high-profile and can weather the fallout.
I wish more people spoke out against Scientology. It’s a cult with blood on its hands.
I’m surprised that Steve Martin didn’t get into trouble for making “Bowfinger”. It’s a total slam fest on Scientology
South Park had a whole ep on Scientology discussing Xenu and volcanoes and the DC8s and all that crazy shlt that they believe. The late Isaac Hayes (Chef), a Scientologist, was so mad that he quit.
I love that episode!!!!!! It’s got the “Stuck In The Closet” part that always kills me!!!! “Tom Cruise, come out of the closet!” “But I like it in here!” LOL! Just remember, South Park got its revenge on Isaac Hayes. Did you see the ep where Chef came back and was a member of that ’secret organization’?
That was a good episode. They made it so obvious that the words were cut together from all over the place.
Those are likely the only two South Park episodes I really like. And you gotta love how they took their names out of the credits at the end of the Scientology one.
I like that episode because they were flashing subtext during the explaination of Scientology that read “This is what these guys actually believe! We are not making this up!”
I know, seriously! That was probably the best part. That or the closet bit, it’s about a toss-up.
Dennis Hopper’s conservative? I didn’t know that!
I didn’t either until this movie. Which proves my point. You can’t talk about it if you’re a Hollywood insider. I’m sure they meet in smoky back rooms with “card games” going and a secret word to get in. *knock-knock knock-knock-knock knock* “What’s the password!” “Rush Limbaugh is my hero!” “You may enter.”
lol!! There is probably a secret handshake and decoder ring! I know one of the Baldwin brothers is conservative but I can’t remember his name. He’s not a famous one but gets in movies sometimes.
Billy, I think. He’s a Conservative Christian, of all things, and he is shunned by his brothers. I can’t help but think of the movie “Team America World Police” when I think of Alec Baldwin…….”You are worflesh, Aric Bardwren!” LOL
froofrou, you make me laugh.
That was a good part in the movie XD
Alec Baldwin on 30 Rock is the awesomest thing ever.
No, it’s Stephan, the ugly one.
He is about as ugly as homemade soap. Poor thing.
My future mother-in-law makes some rather lovely soap.
Homemade sin then………well, I don’t know about that either. My homemade sin is pretty spectacular……..
Mine too.
An American Carol hahahaha that looks awful.
Would you like it more if it featured say, Susan Sarandon, Michael Moore, Sean Penn and their ilk?
Nope, the script would still be complete and utter crap. I’d rather watch Meet the Spartans. Nice try though, have a golf clap.
Almost as bad as W.
Oh wait, no, W is utter bull while American Carol has more comedic value than “lol Bush is dumb”.
“lol Bush is dumb” vs. “lol Michael Moore is an American-hating terr’ist”. Bottom scrapings for the unwashed masses either way. The only winning move is not to play.
This one actually annoys me. Accent can change how words sound. If she had spelled it wrong, then we could bitch. This is just pointless. I have found myself pronouncing it different a couple times. With all the shit we can actually hate her for this, I find this lol rather petty.
There is a difference between an accent and just plain wrong.
“nuu-clear” is an accent.
“nyu-clear” is an accent.
“nuke-ya-la” is wrong.
The last one sounds like a Bronx accent when I read it in my head. TomAto Tomaato argument really. This still seems like a petty argument. So she pronounces it wrong. There is way better evidence of her as an idiot than that.
Ya know, I feel like if someone is asking for the privilege of having their finger on the big red button, the least they can do is learn to pronounce the word properly.
How would it change anything? I wouldn’t call it a privilege, I would dread having to have that responsibility.
Not as much as everyone would dread Sarah Palin having that responsibility.
“So, why did you nuke India Sarah?”
“Well, the thing about India is the… Well you see the health care reform that’s needed to, uh, shore up the economy and the… It’s gotta be about job creation.”
In bed.
Sorry but if a President fired a nuke no one would be around to ask tricky gotcha questions.
And at least she would be there to fire the nuke instead of just screaming “I’M PRESENT! PRESENT!!!!!”
Or hosting a tea party for deranged nutjob dictators.
*headdesk headdesk headdesk*
PiMan, don’t forget about “nuke-yomerimemoimabnerkmepoo”
Now THAT’S a pronunciation fail I WANT to see XD
OOOoooh, what about how she pronounces “Iraq?” She says “eye-rack” not short “i” as in “ill” Iraq.
Ignorance is bliss.
Me… That’s how I pronounce it.
Ya stinkin’ bastitch.
Huh? Somebody say something? I was distracted by her legs. (mmm….)
I was very irritated by her constant incorrect pronunciation of the word nuclear. Yes, people in different areas say words in different ways…that’s a fact. What struck a nerve was the fact that our great country has been embarrassed for 8 years by a bumbling idiot and hearing her say that word the same as “Dubya” was like nails on a chalkboard. We do not need another 4 years of embarrassment for this country which is what she represents. Should anything happen to McCain, she is so completely and utterly incompetent for the position she would fill. We need someone who is intelligent and represents what this country can be again, which is the greatest country in the world.
