"The" President


Have you noticed our commander-in-chief's propensity to use a definite article in front of certain technological nouns?

Example #1

"The internets"

During the second 2004 Presidential debate Bush referred to the rumors on the internets that there might be a draft.

Maybe this explains it.

Example #2 (and #2a)

"The Google" (and the satellite)

Recently the pres was interviewed on CNBC and asked if he used Google. He responded that one of the things he used on the Google was to pull up maps. (link via crooksandliars.com)

He also mentioned the satellite. 'Cause there is only one up there.

The really scary part is his lack of comprehension about email. Where is Ted Stevens when you need him to explain things?
