Yes. He went there

[madokie]

Watching dancing with rove interviewing President O on meet the press, or press the meat whichever

1. If you want to know what this man has sacrificed for this country

7. Wasn't he dying his hair?

Male politicians seem to do that more and more and not just presidential candidates. Females have done that for a long time.

[Cha]

19. No, I don't see President Obama dying

his hair.

[oldbanjo]

8. Normal aging.

[eShirl]

15. 4 years.

[Blue_In_AK]

18. Maybe a bit more than normal,

but I myself have quite a few more white hairs than I did 4 years ago. They come on suddenly.

[Scootaloo]

20. Normal presidential aging, perhaps

<- 1992 versus 2000 ->

<- 2000 versus 2008 ->

2. the 'roundtable' is an Obama slag....fuck them all

they all look at delores kerns like she's an alien when she defends the President.

at least chuck todd is talking about how little this fucking congress has done....

3. My cue was when gregory said something about we'll see what people think about this interview

coming up next. I couldn't turn the tv off quick enough. The last thing I'm going to listen to is someone bashing this President about anything. He's working his heart out for us.

4. I wanted Mr. Obama to tell Gregory that he was working on a permanent tax cut for him, too.

But House Republicans are willing to let the rate on Gregory's entire income rise.

5. It may seem like a little thing. . .

but it is President Obama not Mr. Obama

We have seen a tremendous lack of respect shown to our President and, in my opinion, we all should be working to turn the tables back around.

Watching the little things does make a difference IMO.

[nadinbrzezinski]

6. It may sound strange to you but Mr. Obama

Is common usage by the NYT from the times of at least the Grant Administration. It is not disrespect, just archaic usage. Most papers use AP style.

[Ikonoklast]

10. Using "Mister" is a long-accepted and respectful appellation when referring to the president.

As long as it is first understood that it is the President we are first talking about, and as we can all agree that we all already know that Barack Obama is indeed president of this nation, it is redundant to continually refer back to his specific title in conversation.


In general, when first addressing to or talking about the president, it is "President Obama", then after that, "Mr. President", or "Mr. Obama".

Everyone here knows Mr. Obama is the President of the United States.

I take that as a given.

Search my posting history and see if I have ever once been disrespectful of this president.

[WinkyDink]

12. Let's not mimic the Republican whine about saying "Mr. Bush" for 41.

[Nye Bevan]

16. How about when DUers just call him "Obama"? Doncha just HATE that? Here's an example....

9. I think Gregory should be canned. He supports anger and hate at times and

to me there is no place in a premier public forum for that.

[loudsue]

11. We should start boycotting hate & anger pundits altogether.

I'm sick of seeing that crap on tv. That would mean we'd boycott ALL of faux news advertisers. But, hey. I'm sick of it.

[TexasProgresive]

13. I misread that, Gregory should be caned.

[malz]

14. Hey,

whatever works.

[glinda]

17. The alternative option.

21. Brokaw is the one who really ticked me off
