This coupled with what some might call peculiarities in American usage can account for some funny linguistic ponderables.

Quoted: Worse, Palin's routine attacks on the media have begun to spill into ugliness. In Clearwater, arriving reporters were greeted with shouts and taunts by the crowd of about 3,000. Palin then went on to blame Katie Couric's questions for her "less-than-successful interview with kinda mainstream media."

One Palin supporter shouted a racial epithet at an African American sound man for a network and told him, "Sit down, boy."
