A prize to the person who finds the most mistakes in this comment that I found written in response to an article in the Deseret News. Is it the curse of being an English teacher or is it just me? Please, please, PLEASE tell me this is just a punctuation/capitalization/usage satire or I think I'll quit my job FOREVER! And then there's the content. And the grammar. And, the announcement to everyone and their dog that he's a Mormon, to boot!
Help me, Rhonda.
"It's LDS Church leaders that strongly urge "moderate" (that's a liberal term by the way), approach to illegal immigration reform, not all Church Member's and American Citizen's. I refuse too participate with that thinking. Utah must obey all the written law's of the land and "NEVER" ever adopt a phony illegal humane approach to this reality, reflecting on their culture, history and spirit of inclusion. Right now Utah don't respect the rule of law and support law enforcement's professional judgment and discretion. They try to turn "federal code's" into minor State civil violations stuffed into Bill's in Congress along with earmarks and pork. while they oppose policies that unnecessarily separate families and deport the parent's, when they have the right to take their "welfare kid's" along with them. Utah don't really acknowledge the non-economic role illegal immigrants play while real American workers and taxpayers pay for while they are here. That's my view, like it or not. And I'm a Mormon also. Plus a true conservative that does not hide the truth's."

I only found one mistake: the whole thing.
Don't even get me started on the incorrect use of apostrophes! (Note: NOT apostrophe's or apostrophies.)
You sure know how to get me fired up, Neesh. I won't sleep tonight. Thanks.
oh help. OH HELP. i'm with jaime. i won't be sleeping tonight.
i never sleep. curse of the english major. (forgive the deliberate disregard for caps. it's my way.)
@Jaime - LOL and cringing at the apostrophe's and apostrophies.
@annie - Since you and Jaime (and now Sherry) aren't sleeping, shouldn't there be something we could do together in the middle of the night that would be fun and take our minds off all this?
@Sherry - I can take consistent disregard for caps. It's the inconsistent disregard that drives me to drink [Diet Coke]. :p
WV: facksess - And them are the facksess, like it or not.
All I can say is....wow. And, holy mother of vomitus!
Mom remembers teaching English as well. She tipped her cute little head back looking down her nose through her glasses.... "hmmm let's see" she said. The phone rang or something and distracted us from the grammar challenge and before we knew it we were on to the chorus in the food court. Some things are just neat. In the best sense. You know? Things that give you pause, that you won't soon forget :) Nicea I love your "The Family that Blogs together...." Well... I'm up, Jaime's up, Annie's up, Sherry too? Let's all meet at "The Walmart!" (Then maybe later we can try to figure out how I ever passed my required Gen. Ed. English) OR just marvel at "THAT MARVELOUS BARGAIN ON THE MAC & CHEESE!"
