Subject: RhetORic



On a quick ride to the Wal-Mart to get some anti-freeze a minute ago, I

heard a caller from Wisconsin (I believe) tell Rush Limbaugh something

about liberal rhetORic, with stress on the second syllable. Is this

pronunciation common up yonder or is it an attempt at saying a word read

but never heard?
