Ever since the tragic events of 9/11, George W. Bush's administration has focused squarely on eradicating perpetuators of international terror, often with much criticism from the American populace. However, little consideration is being given to the government's hard line stance against proper grammar and articulation.
"I truly believe that this administration has done more damage to the English Language than 50 Cent," said Elva Price, Professor of Language and Culture at McLaughlin University. "Is our children learning? Not from this administration, I can tell you."
Despite the government's utter castration of articles, prepositions, and participles, few have voiced opinions concerning the American vernacular, and its descent into idiocy.
"Grammar is teh ghey!" wrote one anonymous poster on a popular government forum.
