    He has no power over me... I have known him to be a liar as long as he's been on the air. He's not worth my time.

    Yes, and efforts like the 'fairness doctrine' and campaign finance laws are examples of government attacking the 1st...Codifying political correctness under the fig leaf of hate crime legislation also applies.

    Were you actually going to address the topic?

    NB: http://www.formsofaddress.info/former.html#FO011

    She is no longer Governor Palin. She is Mrs. Palin.

    you address Clinton, W, and HW, and Carter as "Mr. President", even after they leave office.


    it's not unheard of to do the same for Governors

    It's optional of course...but I would consider it a sign of respect. Sarah Palin hasn't earned any respect from the left, and I don't believe people on the right are being honest if they say Palin deserves respect.

    She's a brainless twerp

    and Obama hasn't earned respect from the right.... however, when he's out of office, he will still be referred to as "Mr. President" by anyone who respects the country and the office.


    And I disagree.... she does deserve respect..... When most people would abort a child like Trig.... she didn't and she chose to love and raise him. I suppose, even if Trig was a surprise issue.... she hasn't pulled a Kennedy family move and shoved the mentally challenged child into a home never to mention her again....

    If for nothing else, she has my respect for that

    And what does any of your victim rant have anything to do with the topic at hand?

    I also see you add that campaign finance reform is paramount to an invasion of free speech. Laughable. Sounds like you're a fan of Citizens United where corporations are people and money=speech.

    She didn't just "leave office". She quit.

    It may not be unheard of but that does not mean it is correct. But the bigger point is: Who cares? SmartMouthWoman decided to nitpick my (correct) address of the former governor of Alaska rather than debate the topic.

    Typical lefty intolerance. We don't like it, so we want it banned or off the air, off tv, etc, etc, ad nauseum.

    Apparently lefties are bigoted against overweight people.

    My opinion of the former governor of Alaska is irrelevant. Nor does my (correct) form of address bear any pertinence to said opinion.-

    Yes. Because that's how both sitting and former presidents are addressed. Different rule for governors. It is no way disrespectful, for example, to address Mario Cuomo as "Mr. Cuomo" and it is in fact disrespectful to his son -- the current governor of New York -- to address him that way. If you were meeting both men, they would be correctly introduced to you as "Governor Cuomo and Mr. Cuomo."

    Likewise, if you were in a room full of all the governors of Alaska, the proper way to introduce and/or address them would be as follows...

    "Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome to the Alaska governors' roundtable. We are pleased to have with us today Governor Parnell, Mrs. Palin, Mr. Murkowski, Mr. Knowles, Mr. Hickel, Mr. Cowper, and Mr. Sheffield."

    So, the only time it was correct to address Sarah Palin as Governor Palin was between December 4, 2006 and July 26, 2009 when she occupied the Alaska Governors' Mansion. Prior to that she was Mrs. Palin and she is now again...

    These gentlemen here?

    [​IMG]

    You address them as President Bush, President Obama, President Bush, President Clinton, and President Carter. You may also address any of them as Mr. President. But you can not address Mario Cuomo as Mr. Governor, nor Sarah Palin as Madam Governor. Clear? Good.

    anything she disagrees with politically is deemed a lie....

    I would address him that way .... I don't agree with a thing he's done, but the office is much bigger than the man who holds it for up to 8 years.

    The mentally challenged Kennedy child was a girl. Maybe you should quit trying?

    Great. You're equating Nixon and Palin now?

    Nixon resigned because he was about to be impeached and could no longer govern. And Palin jumped ship because.....?

    Then why didn't you write it that way? You simply typed 'Obama.' Given the nature of the pedantic discussion we've been having on honorifics, I find the juxtaposition ironic if not a little comedic! :wink:

    I believe the pill-popping triple divorcee lies every time he opens his mouth regarding drug policy and family values.
