Good grammar. Who needs it?


Hilarious op-ed piece from the New York Times on Sarah Palin's speech patterns. I know that this kind of negativity isn't exactly productive, but it sure is funny. Because if we can't agree to pick on people who who willfully ignore the conventions of the English language, the communists have won, folks.

That diagram, by the way, is the Preamble to the Consitution.

For the Pledge of Allegiance, head over here.

Ugh. Diagramming sentences. One of the most useless ways to learn grammar. (And biggest wastes of paper, for those of us who liked to use every inch of available college-ruled.)
