(New York-AP) -- Former White House Press Secretary Ari
Fleischer says he considered saying something to President Bush
about his pronunciation of the word "nuclear" -- but never did.
Fleisher appeared on CBS's "The Late Show with David
Letterman" Thursday. Letterman brought up Bush's much-noted
pronunciation of "nuclear" as NU-cu-lar -- rather than NU-cle-ar
-- when talking about weapons of mass destruction.
Fleischer quipped: "That might be why we haven't found them
yet."
Letterman asked if anybody has ever said to the president, "Oh,
by the way, it's not 'nucular."'
Fleischer said he's thought about going into the Oval Office and
doing just that -- but he hasn't done it.
