The Sound of the Crowd

“State of the Union” is…

A) An opportunity for Mark Evanier to write a Top Ten List

B) Just the latest example of George W. Bush enraging those of us who actually care about words and their meaning–such as David Corn–with his Orwellian doublespeak.

C) An underrated Tracy/Hepburn film directed by Frank Capra that if Al Gore had watched, he’d be president today. And from which Ronald Reagan stole one of the most widely quoted examples of his “wit.”

D) All of the above.

Answers on one side of the paper only, please.
