Has ANYONE gotten through to Franken about last night...

[Grown2Hate]

at the press conference where Bush SNAPPED at that AP reporter for not addressing him as "Mr. President"? I've not had a chance to listen to the whole show, so I haven't heard it mentioned. This needs to be PLASTERED EVERYWHERE though. Let's keep calling. Call Randi, call everyone! :)

1. I didn't hear it...

but it wouldn't surprise me. It is a huge piece of their strategy. It is never "Bush," "Mr. Bush," "George Bush." They always refer to him as "Mr. President," or "the President".
If you ever listen to FoxNews, you will notice that they go (annoyingly so) out of their way to insert the word "President" whenever they are doing a story involving Chimpy.

I assume they will begin machine-gun use of the word "re-elect" soon too.

5. Al didn't mention it....

But they were discussing it on "Unfiltered" this morning.

They made fun of Bush for it, as he deserved. I believe the comment was "If he said that to me, I would have followed it up by addressing him as 'douchebag'."
