I wouldn't say 'barack' but i would call him 'mr. obama'.

Would you call him Mr. President?

Only if I worked for him - if he hooked me up with a plum book job, then yes I will "Mr. President" him all day.

Otherwise, it is just Mr. Obama. Not just obama, it is for all ex presidents, senators, reps, etc.

Now if he smoked pot with me, I would call him baz or o'beezy.

Huh? Ex presidents and senators still get called by their title after they leave office.

they do but i'm just saying how i would call them.

Yawn, I stopped reading after the first couple sentences.

it doesn't bother me - He breathes the same air as me, if you cut him he bleeds - he isn't superman.

Agree completely. The anti-Obama obsession has reached the stage of mental illness. Pot is legal in Colorado. It is no different than if someone has offered Obama a beer. Get help OP.

It is still illegal at the federal level.

States rights.

states rights only matters to conservatives if they can use it to put minorities in chains.

21:11, I am virulently pro-Obama and meh/slightly leaning toward legalizing pot, and that was what bugged me the most about this story, too.

Suck it haters. Two years of Obama and then four years of another Democrat. It must suck to be you.

May I mention how refreshing it is here to have a positive, unbiased moderator on this forum?

-oh, I must be thinking of another forum. This mod is divisive, and bitter as an old cat lady.

Well, yeah, Jeff is obviously pro-Obama and anti-anti-Obama. You can see it all over the Political forum. The Political forum, though, might be the craziest forum on DCUM.

Outside of the Political forum, he's unbiased.

Not true. I am completely biased. You should hear my opinions on circumcision and extended breastfeeding. But, I don't silence those with whom I disagree. Though, I do wonder why they want to silence me.

Silence you? No one cares if you speak. What we are calling out is your tendency to debate using a childlike manner, rather than behave as an intelligent adult.

+1000

I almost never read posts in this forum but something made me click on this. I'm virulently anti-Obama and virulently anti-legalized pot.

Neither of those things is what upsets me in this article. Maybe it's part of my old-fashioned conservative views, but I'm most bothered by the news reports that we've now stooped to calling our President "Barack". Maybe it hearkens to the threads about whether people allow their three year olds to refer to adults by their first names without a Mr. or Ms. Modifier. But, something makes me sad that we've reached a stage where respect is not a valued trait at all.

Like him or not, we've elected him. well, not me, but you get my point. He's the President of the United States, and although we're struggling we are arguably still the strongest nation on the world stage. He's got a pretty powerful job, and to kid ourselves that he's just like you and me is ridiculous. Makes me sad on a broader societal scale.

That's it. Carry on with bashing Jeff, Obama, Congress and anyone else you can think of.

Oh now you went and did it. He's going to pull your posts, and in a few hours you'll be crying about how unfair that is.

Jeff has to read our crap. The least we can do is let him write whatever he wants.
