Subject: RE: BS: Addressing A President
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are CREATED EQUAL........"
So it takes 233 years before we finally get a guy who understands that phrase and y'all wanna' be dumpin' on his ass? Gimmee a friggin' break here...........
He wasn't suggesting he be called Barack at formal affairs but in a conversational setting what's the big deal? Respect for the office? C'mon....I have a ton of respect for a man who holds the office and wants to make others comfortable around him in a communicative setting.
Its not like he fell to the floor breakdancing and rapping "Call me BigB Whopper-Daddy" now is it? Or are y'all afraid that this informality might lead to that????
..........geeziz.........A true bullshit thread if we ever had one!
