And I know jiving is a dance, but when someone's not hip with it, I do sometimes use the word to mean jargon. And, you never know, maybe Abbott was talking about a constipation of wisdom. But I have no words to help Bush - he's on his own.<br /><br />Yes, I often enjoy a good laugh when I see a malapropism. But when the wrong word is used on purpose - that's classic. (Or is it just classy?)<br /><br />Great post!

Sometimes I wonder how people like me managed before Google and spell check. This post was very illuminating.

"The reforms we seek would bring greater competition, choice, savings and inefficiencies to our health care system."
