He Who Doesn’t Check His Work: The White House slipped up (again) this week by accidently releasing Dubya’s speech to the UN in the original format. That is, the format he read it, viewed on a teleprompter. Apparently Dubya can’t pronounce certain things.

Pronunciations for President Bush’s friend French President Sarkozy “[sar-KOzee]” appeared in draft #20 on the UN website. Other pronunciations included the Mugabe “[moo-GAHbee] regime” and pronunciations for countries “Kyrgyzstan [KEYRgeez-stan]” and “Mauritania [moor-EH-tain-ee-a].” Someone didn’t look before submitting it to the public.

For his fearless efforts in not checking twice, He Who Doesn’t Check His Work is declared NOTABLE!
