POPSWashington All Wee-Weed Up!
Exactly. Not only that but the Great Antagonistic Hoard wanted to know why the President would insult the office by the use of such slang. The President saying "wee-weed," has now been added to the list of his alleged great Hitler Communist Afro-American sins. Although, gasp!, it seems, this clip reports, being "wee-weed," in in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, William Shakespeare, the King James Bible, not to mention Boswell's Life of Samuel Johnson. If that ain't English, --or, at least -- roots of the English language, what is? But, no dope, everybody's wee-weeded up and getting ginned. Lots of folks think what's on our corrossive and toxic news is what is but often, way 4sure, it ain't. Obama hasn't even stepped up to the plate on this (and some other issues). I mean, he's doing yeoman work to the max and calling some shots but when It's Time to Step Up to the Batter's Box it's gonna be a Home Run, 4sure...and he's point out the spot, like Big Babe & blast it like H

POPSAugust 2nd, 2006 post -- A story for everyone It's not a "valid argument" to say a student would be prejudiced against a book simply because it was assigned in class. It's actually fallacious (specifically Dicto simpliciter fallacy, which is known as the sweeping generalizations fallacy). An argument is considered valid when it is backed up with proof, and the blog author's "valid argument" contains no proof at all. Stating that 30% of kids finished a classic book but 90% finished the book when offered a well-written young adult novel is also fallacious. Readers are not given any more details about this "study" (it's implied that it was an informal study conducted by the blog author), we do not know how many teachers were polled, how many students responded truthfully, or even anything else at all except the numbers that could very easily have been fabricated (since your study lacked proof of their veracity).
