2. A bit tepid on Brian's part I thought
Maybe a little "Cheney this" to spice it up a little!

There's another title that is for life lady, it's idiot and you qualify!

7. You are correct.
He could have stood and grabbed his balls while saying it, as well. The majority would have understood, completely.

3. Notice how he said they got a ton of emails on it
so, it must have been brought up on some RW radio show.

And, imagine the outrage if a newscaster did not use "Mr. President" when speaking to former president Reagan (when still alive)

5. That was a "nice" bitchslap
compared what he could have said about how the viewing habits of this lady reflected her lack of original thought.

6. Carolyn showed how stupid she is
you always call any former pol by the title of the highest office he once held; a former senator, for example, is called "Senator", a governor "Governor". The only time you don't use a title of a former office is if the person is holding another office, like Ambassador; Adlai Stevenson was known as "Gov. Stevenson" until he filled the post at the UN, even though he hadn't been governor of Illinois for some years. Anyone who takes a minute to check an etiquette book would know this.

8. Chris Wallace addressing Bill Clinton as "Mr. President" on FOX News 9/24/06:
 
WALLACE: Mr. President, welcome to "FOX News Sunday."

BILL CLINTON: Thanks.

   -snip-

CLINTON: But it would've shown the weakness if we'd left right away, but he wasn't involved in that. That's just a bunch of bull. That was about Mohammed Adid, a Muslim warlord, murdering 22 Pakistani Muslim troops. We were all there on a humanitarian mission. We had no mission, none, to establish a certain kind of Somali government or to keep anybody out.

He was not a religious fanatic ...

WALLACE: But, Mr. President ...

CLINTON: ... there was no ...

   -snip-

WALLACE: Mr. President, thank you for one of the more unusual interviews.

CLINTON: Thanks.

A true smack-down would have been for NBC to read that person's email and follow it with the clips from this FOX News interview.
