donl: RE:< Objective Question about the Willey 60 Minutes Interview>
After viewing the Willey interview on 60 minutes tonight, and the president's response to it, I continue to NOTICE THE PATTERN in the PRESIDENT's CHOSEN LANGUAGE to deny allegations related to the scandal. When making denials, I've always noticed the president chooses pronouns. For example, "I did not have an improper relationship with HER (rather than naming the person he is referring to). He sometimes uses the person's name in the previous sentence, but there's no assurance in the denial sentence that the chose pronoun relates to the person named in the previous sentence.

I do not recall the media ever reporting this consistency and I think it (this consistency in the choice of pronouns) is VERY IMPORTANT. Have you noticed the same thing ? If so, do you have any thoughts as to WHY the president seems to consistently choose pronouns when making his denials, rather than specifically naming the person he is referring to when making his denials ? :-)
