Who Knew?
Posted at 1:21am on Jan. 17, 2008 Ladies and Gentlemen, I have a request to make. (Open thread)
Please? For me?
By Moe Lane
A habit has crept into comments, when referring to the current junior Senator from Illinois. In what is apparently an effort to annoy and distress our colleagues on the Other Side, certain individuals make it a point to refer to said Senator by turning his first name into an initial and spelling out his middle name. I would appreciate it if this habit stopped, from now on; it's kind of low-rent, if you know what I mean.
So, please, when referring to him in the future, use his proper name. The one he's earned: Senator Barack "Reagan-lover" Obama.
Thank you for your attention in this matter.
Moe Lane
