This is more a literacy issue than a usage issue, but it annoys me nonetheless. Come on, folks. Even if you don't have a great grasp of English usage, at least sound literate.
Every time George W. Bush enunciated the word "nucular," I shuddered and another gray hair popped up.
I'm going to make this short and sweet. The correct pronunciation is "nuclear" -- plain and simple. Nothing more, nothing less.
"Nucular" is just one of those words that sounds incredibly foolish. Do the teacher a favor and, if you use it, dump it from your vocabulary. Please?
