He was just writing in Republicanese.

It has many similarities to English but has many differences as well.

In Republicanese, no spelling is standard. Your and You're are interchangeable as are lose and loose, as well as there, their and they're. Plurals are randomly formed with an apostrophe ("The Clinton's are speaking to the Democrat's again&quot . etc. etc.

Before you accuse someone of writing bad English make sure they ARE writing in English and not in Republicanese.
