Politics - Reuters Reuters 'Challenges' Prove Too Much for White House Thu Dec 16, 4:17 PM ET Add to My Yahoo! Politics - Reuters WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The White House went all out to showcase the advantages of President Bush (news - web sites)'s ambitious financial agenda this week, but in the end the "challenges" proved too much. The word "challenges" -- a main theme of a two-day White House economic conference that ended on Thursday -- was misspelled on a large television monitor that stood in front of Bush during a panel discussion. "Financial Challanges for Today and Tomorrow," the message proclaimed in dark blue capital letters against a bright yellow background. The conference, which critics derided as a public relations event devoid of serious discussion, spotlighted a second-term Bush agenda that would reform Social Security (news - web sites) and the tax code while making tax cuts permanent and cutting the deficit in half. The White House had no immediate comment on the misspelling. FREAKIN HILARIOUS. story
In spelling, there is a British spelling, an American spelling, and a Texas pronounciational spelling. This was definitely an example of Texas pronounciational spelling, just like nuculur.
Somehow this seems fitting. They half-@ssed vetting Bernard Kerick so they might as well half-@ss everything else.
