Grainy/Liney text in FCE

I'm such a problematic person with this program, as you may have seen before, but I REALLY would like to get this program down, so transitioning to FCP or AE CS5 won't be as hard in the future, and so I can freely do effects again, unlike iMovie.

My problem now, is that when I ROTATE text, it gets that interlaced look, or even sometimes, a grainy look to it. I have the video at render to de-interlace, that helps greatly, but the grainy-ness is still there in some text clips. I've noticed this problem in fonts such as, Impact, and Lucida Grande, the default text. I EVEN have the preview window set to 100% to correct for the aspect ratio, and save the file at 1080p H.264 at the best quality, de-interlaced, no restrictions on bit rate, sometimes. Right now, I'm doing my first test, and from the looks of the preview, the text looks to be turning out well, but it's linear, not rotated or anything specific or different about it.

If anyone can help me with this, I'd gladly appreciate it!
I'm not sure how to change the sequence settings, as Final Cut Express does not give as many free options to users like it's higher part, Final Cut Pro.

Good quality, wait til its done rendering to catch some of the bad parts.
