12 year presidential term?
It’s just another day of checking the school network in order to make sure there wasn’t anything there that wasn’t supposed to be. Todays expedition turned up a great (sic) report about George W. Bush. I’ll spare you the two pages of poor grammar and extremely bad spelling. This excerpt shows how well the student understands the U.S. political structure (grammar and spelling intact):
And George Bush will now sty in office through 2008. And who knows he might even run again after that.
Hmmmm. I’m guessing that this student doesn’t know that presidents are held to only two terms. Maybe they also need to learn how to use the spelling and grammar checker built into MS Word.

Actually, the limit is ten years in office. While this restricts most presidencies to two terms, one may serve as president for a total of ten years if the first two are from being appointed president due to the death of the previous president.
I should have put:
know that presidents are held to only two elected terms.
That would still prevent President Bush from running for another term.
~the damage done in the 8 years he will have in office has been enough~
What station was I listening to the other day? I don’t remember. It was a national show though. And they said we might have a 3rd term war time president. I don’t know the consitution well enough to know if this is allowed at all or if they would have to make an ammendment for it?
I know this would scare half of the people living in the US today.
I just thought I’d share what I had heard.
Oh yea, I remember that radio show, it was “Fox News – Wishfull Thinking”. BAM!
As far as spell checking is concerned, sty is a word. MSWord would not complain about the spelling. The grammar checker, however, should have complained.
Maybe the student figured that, since Bush stole the 2000 election, he can indeed run again in 2008. [ /joking ]
