Lionel...are YOU a cacoepist? Almost every American I know pronounces "coup de grace" this way: "coup de grah." If you do, consider yourself a cacoepist, because a "coup de grah" is the way you would pronounce "coup de gras," a blow with a piece of fat, like lard.

Just a pet peeve of mine. Pronounce those final consonants in French if they are followed by a vowel.

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed." Dwight Eisenhower

What is a "nucule"? Why do people insist on pronouncing it that way? And, most importantly, who am I?

Not only that, Derm...our soldiers and equipment are elsewhere; they can't protect us. We could be invaded by practically anyone, and it'd take weeks to mount an effective response. And the cost? Now that we've sold the military to private contractors on the presumption that they're less expensive, and found out what prevarication THAT was, we're even more screwed economically.

We'd have a hard time drumming up allies in the event of an attack or an invasion, also; the rest of the world is fortunately wiser than to send their soldiers to die for someone else's hubris.

Joe Biden is a plagerist. Governor Palin has a midwestern accent.

Gee! What's worse?
