I have a problem with people referring to our President as Obama
and not President Obama or The President. The use of his last name only is an effort to minimize him and disrespect him. The use of his last name without his title is used exclusively by right wing media (Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity never refer to him as "President Obama" but I also see it used very often on DU. He is not "Obama," he is President Obama the democratically elected President of the United States of America. Don't help out the right by disrespecting the president.

9. No, it wasn't President Bush. It was just Bush
Because he was an idiot who attempted to ruin our country. He didn't earn my respect. I would think that members of Democratic Underground would have some respect for our Democratic President but I should have learned by now that is not the case. I still get to post my viewpoints here though, right? Is that okay with you guys?
And Senators I usually do refer to with their title and their name no matter which party.
In other words...Don`t hold me to the standard I demand to satisfy my sensibilities!
Typical lib. :loser:

What I've been noticing lately is that DUmmies are suddenly allowed to speak of the jug-eared muslim by name, without the "President". Earlier, it had to be "President Jug-Eared Muslim", NOT just "Jug-Eared Muslim", or you were fast-tracked to the boneyard. The change in just the last couple of months is remarkable.
I want to thank DUmmy mortos for reading my post here in the DUmpster, and taking action on it.
I am pleased to have been of service, and expect to see the jug-eared Kenyan start getting more respect at the DUmp.

Boo Frickin Hoo. Either do somethong or shut up Dummy.

That's why I refer to him as the imposter.
How's that you DUmmies?! :tongue:

Alright alright alright. I'm sorry. From now on I'll refer to Barry as,
Your President obama.
Better? Blood pressure back towards normal? Breathing under 70 a minute? Panties all unwadded now? Now go **** yourself. Calling him President Obama shows respect. I have none for him, same as you morons calling President Bush chimp or * for 8 years.
Now go ahead and rewad and hyperventilate again because responsibility for YOUR President is squarely on the DUmbasses who voted for him shoulders.

How about "President? Obwana". Would that work for ya, needle dick?

Well - I referred to George Bush The Second as "Bush" , and I liked the man despite his faults.
You think I'm gonna cut Obama any slack when I think the man is an complete idiot.
Respect the office - not the person holding it.
-
I'm willing to call YOUR slugshit president President Obama, but only if I get to preface it with my choice of modifier. So, let's all give a rousing cheer for Affirmative Action Loser President Obama and his band of merry castaway IDIOTS over on the island. Come to think of it, his persona kind of reminds me of Gilligan. And fat Teddy made a grand (pun intended) Skipper.

I have a problem with people referring to
PresidentObama as Obama our president.
DUmmie has dyslexia.
-
It is against the DUmp rules to call him "Barry". :whatever:
That thread just drips with so much irony.

Can I call him the HNIC (Head Narcissist In Charge)?

Ironically, Mortos, I too have a problem, and it is almost a complete inversion of your own...

The DUmmies were also suggesting that Senator Franken become the new House minority leader recently... :thatsright:

Well he is a minority....Oh wait a minute....no, there are a lot of stupid democrats in the house....I'd the majority of the democrats are stupid....so that would make him majority leader....which can't be becau.......oh just skip it. :thatsright:

And after only two years in office.

And after only two years in office.
The biggest obstacle to DUmmy Franken being House minority leader is that he's not a member of the House.

SHHHH! Don't confuse them with facts.

That was my point. :-)
But someone actually posted that after the mid-terms when they were trying to figure out who should be the new HOUSE minority leader.

Lets send Franken to the UN! The whole place is full of shit! He'd fit right in!

Is that what he is? I thought he was just a Kenyan man occupying the White Mosque.
