BBC, with their typical debate on how Americans have spoiled the English language, bring out some of the best grammatical mistakes that Mr. G. THush had done during his press conferences, interviews and other public speaking moments. It is a collection as well with some proof of actual videos.
The best one I like is G. THush on Economics,
"I understand small business growth. I was one." New York Daily News, 19 February, 2000
"It's clearly a budget. It's got a lot of numbers in it." Reuters, 5 May, 2000
"I do remain confident in Linda. She'll make a fine Labour Secretary. From what I've read in the press accounts, she's perfectly qualified." Austin, Texas, 8 January, 2001
"First, let me make it very clear, poor people aren't necessarily killers. Just because you happen to be not rich doesn't mean you're willing to kill." Washington DC, 19 May, 2003
It sometimes surprises me how he spent that much time up there but I guess, taking the punch line from Slumdog Millionaire, "It was written."
He is one of a kind. :D
