COMEDY GOLD FROM FREE REPUBLIC!!!
I tell ya, that place is always good for a laugh

To: 2ndDivisionVet
Somone told me this would be a black and white vote. Every brown skinned brown eyed voter is voting Obama. McCain is playing to the wrong crowd. Preaching to the quier will not win this election. pubbies should have planned to run more minorities up the ladder in their own party to combat an election like this but sadly they did not.i can count on one hand the number of dark eyed republican pundants. after supporting both legal and illegal immigration what else should republicans expect and they did not prepare.

Quier isn't. I have seen the "quire" spelling in historic churches and cathedrals.

78. I seriously doubt that the DUer was trying to use an archaic spelling.
I think he/she just didn't spell "choir" correctly. My point is that such misspellings are not evidence of stupidity, and crowing too loudly that Freepers must be idiots because they spell words wrong is probably not that great a strategy, since even perfectly intelligent people on our own side might not be the greatest spellers in the world.

I speak as a college English teacher, an editor and proofreader of others' manuscripts, and a former state spelling bee champion (when I was 9 years old), so I am not just covering my own fanny. The English language is not phonetic, and anyone who has not mastered the intricacies of English spelling by the time he/she is about 10 or 11 years old is not likely ever to do so. But that doesn't mean the person is an idiot.

Let's spell "fish":
ghoti

gh--as in "enough
o--as in "women"
ti--as in "nation"

84. Sorry. Quier for Choir was funny.
Yeah, the Ghoti thing. I remember that from school. Whatever. It was funny. The context of it being in a racist freepr rant is what makes the misspelling funny. Yeah, we misspell words too, but they're rarely in a vile, hateful, racist spewing post.

93. I am amused, too, by such misspellings, but since I know so many fine, intelligent
people who can't spell to save their lives, I hate to make too big an issue of it. And, yes, the vileness of the Freeper's rant scertainly worth noting, even if every single word had been perfectly spelled.

Edited on Tue Oct-07-08 04:08 PM by Pithlet
I'm sure your experience isn't the exception. It's a freeper thread. Relax. :) The context is what makes it funny. If the misspelling had been a post about how he had just donated his last dollar to the Obama campaign, I doubt there'd be a thread here mocking him for it. What makes it funny is the stupidity the whole post is dripping with.

46. Yeah, the republicans should tapped their vast reserve of minority party members
And run them, inundating us with conservative people of color until the few non-White democrats we have are lost in the tidal wave.

Two false assumptions here:

1. That putting up a non-White candidate will make people of that candidate's race vote for him or her. I'm not swayed when a candidate is White; I look at the issues. Why do republicans assume that the same wouldn't be true for non-Caucasians. This is a racist attitude that has bled over to being sexist again with the nomination of Sarah Palin in that the McCain campaign expressed hope that they would be able to get female Hillary voters with her - essentially replacing one woman with another like they're interchangeable in the eyes of females, who aren't going to vote their best interests.

2. I met the Latinos who were trotted up on stage at the Republican Convention one night to show Hispanic/Latino support for George W. Bush (they also had a night dedicated to Black support, etc., if you remember). Those Latinos were Mexican nationals from Juarez who were going to college at the University of Texas in El Paso, which has a special program with Juarez, which is just across the border. GOP operatives came to them and asked them if they wanted to participate in a program to learn more about the American political system. They would get free room, board, and travel expenses. So they bussed (not flew) them to Philadelphia, brought them to the convention, and brought them up on stage when George P. (Jeb's son) was speaking. They realized they had been punked but went along with it. One of them showed me a picture of herself on stage looking confused. If they couldn't find an actual Hispanic group to support them (nor a Black one - the director of the Black gospel choir said they only agreed to do it so they could be on TV), they're not going to find large amounts of minorities to run on their ticket.

47. Why was that necessary?
Didn't over 40% of Hispanics demonstrate ignorance and poor judgment in the 2004 election? They had plenty of legals who voted for Dumdum.

But I met the kids, heard their story, and saw the pictures.

68. Hmmm. For a while there, they were spell-checking and approving every post before it was posted.
I guess ol' Rim-Job realized that the starling illiteracy of the vast majority of the posters was making FR into even more of a laughingstock than it already was.

It seems they're slacking even more so than usual over there these days.

101. Preaching to these people?
American Family Name Origins: Quier

Frequency: (106)
(number of times this surname appears in a sample database of 88.7 million names, representing one third of the 1997 US population)
Scottish or Irish: variant of Quire (see McQuire).


WEll, being of Scottish or Irish descent would probably exclude "brown skinned, brown eyed" people.

:rofl:
