Keith Olberman just said "MR." bush*.

[MoonRiver]

Freudian slip or deliberate put down?

[AlCzervik]

1. Neither

It's perfectly acceptable to refer to the president as Mr. after identifying him as President. weird i know but true.

[MoonRiver]

4. The media has bowed and scraped to this bogus adm from day 1.

Something is very different now.

[revcarol]

5. Yup. and President Washington started it.

Good, no.

The President is supposed to be just another man among men.(Sorry for the generic "man.")

That's why Bush was so incensed with that reporter...

[roguevalley]

2. deliberate. keith hates bush.

[Hubert Flottz]

3. I'm waiting for Cheerleader in Chief!

Olberman and Lou Dobbs don't approve of the Chief Chimp I don't think!

[ezee]

8. Your Right!

[Jacobin]

6. He's done that a lot lately

I believe that Mr. Olberman thinks Smirky is a moron and will be glad to see him go.

[ezee]

7. If one

watches Keith often one will note that he is not impressed with the shrub. I believe that he does this type of thing out of dis-respect. and good for him

[zbdent]

9. Did he get smacked down?

Like "Sir" - "WHO ARE YOU TALKING TO ?" - "Mr. President" - "That's better"

[MoonRiver]

12. He was talking to a Dem Senator and the guy didn't make a peep.

Heck, it should really be Inmate *. Mr. is a compliment.

[izzie]

13. Hatch is making an amendment now. No Mr. from now on. but Sire

All the red states will pass it.

[kskiska]

10. Journalistically, it's President at the first mention

Afterwards, it's either Mister or just plain Bush, or Chimp, or moran, or preznit junior, or village idiot (whatever your preference).

[ThoughtCriminal]

11. I think I prefer "Governor Bush"

The subtext is not ambiguous.
