Which satire? Tell that to your 3 year old cousin! Excuse! Excuse!! Excuse!!!

May be dame was being satirical when she used broken English.

chosen04:

Is the position of the vice president inferior by any standard? if not in only the grammatical expression of a Phd holder?

Beaf:

I didn't see it either. It is terrible to cast damaging falsehoods at others.

chosen04:

@BEAF

But Thank God you saw and heard your Joe calling ''HIS EXALTED'' position inferior cos of his grammatical blunder

even though he is a Phd holder.

Beaf:

There is nothing grammatically wrong with that.

Beaf:

Positions can be superior or inferior

Beaf:

the only argument might be that the words were used inappropriately (in a politically incorrect way).

Two grammatically correct sentences;
[list]
[li]The position of General is superior to that of Sergeant[/li]
[li]The position of is Sergeant inferior to that of General[/li]

And when used in the usual Presido JOE inappropriate way, it becomes

that is why in the first place constitution  of the military is designed for two people to be in charge of parade at every time, one   General superior and Sergeant inferior.

Phd degree don suffer . . . . . . .
