So I'm watching MSM and they call Santorum...

[unionworks]

...SENATOR SANTORUM! You STUPID FUCKS HE IS NOT A SENATOR!!! Bob Casey WHUPPED HIS ASS BY 20 POINTS you fucking LIARS! Worthless Pieces of Corporate Ball-licking SHIT!

[Honeycombe8]

1. Wasn't he a senator? Once you are a senator, you can be called that for life. It's the same...

if you hold other titles, as well.

Haven't you noticed that interviewers will call former Prez Clinton, "Mr. President"? That's because that is now part of his official title, once having been President.

6. Oh God

Santorum had his fundy ass seriously kicked. Now he gets to publicly embarass Pennsylvania for their mistake FOR LIFE! GOD OR SOME OTHER IMAGINARY BEING HELP US!

[Honeycombe8]

10. LOL! I'm afraid so. nt

[Canuckistanian]

18. I've never understood this American tradition

Here in Canada, former office holders are never referred to by their past titles. It's just "Mr." or "Ms.".

[nadinbrzezinski]

2. He was, he gets to keep the tittle

It is, and has been, in the AP style guide for decades.

3. Frothy Mix sounds kind of disrespectful...

...but it is more accurate.

[w8liftinglady]

15. Ok..let's compromise

SENATOR Frothy Mix

[crunch60]

16. I think MR. Frothy Mix is a good compromise.

[w8liftinglady]

19. OK... You win!

[B Calm]

4. I once was a group leader, they

quit calling me that years ago. .

[TheCowsCameHome]

5. It really goes up my ass when they call Newt "Mr. Speaker"

I guess when you resign in disgrace and pay a fine it doesn't matter, either.

[unionworks]

7. thank you

...yes, I noticed that too. Hey, you must be a REAL DEMOCRAT!

[julian09]

9. Pennsyvania can make up for making him senator, by voting against him in Penn primary. nt

[unionworks]

11. I just can't beleve

I am still seeing this little crooks face on my teevee

[90-percent]

14. Update

Mr. Disgraced Speaker would be more appropriate.

-90% jimmy

[crunch60]

22. And don't forget Governor Palin, still some calling her that, even though she only

served part of her term, dropped out and headed for the bright lights of the "White House", and never looked back.

[left on green only]

8. If you think that is bad, they will even continue to call you governer,

when you quit half way through your term. That's what irks me. However, I am not certain if Gray Davis is still titled. Anyone out there know?

[liberal N proud]

12. And they call Rmoney Governor and Noot Speaker, BUT

BUT, they call the President, Obama.

Not The President or President Obama, just Obama.

Librul media my ass!

[Renew Deal]

13. Yeah, and why do they get to call Bill Clinton "President"

[FrenchieCat]

17. But most just call Pres. Obama....Obama!

Wonder why?

[unionworks]

20. Sorry Fellow Democrats

Just hearing this despicable fuckwad addressed as "senator" MAKES MY BLOOD BOIL!!!

[Lil Missy]

21. That's routine - no new ground broken here. n/t
