Did Inhofe just call Gore "Senator Gore"?

[AndyA]

What about Vice President Gore?

Or PRESIDENT Gore?

[Horse with no Name]

1. What do you expect from that asshate?

They will do anything to denigrate someone else.
If I were PRESIDENT Gore, I would respond "Thank you Hall Monitor Inhofe".

[acmavm]

2. I'd hate to be such a bitter, petty, whiny asshole like Inhofe. I

mean, I have my character flaws, but he can make almost anyone look good.

[AndyA]

3. And what kind of a game is he playing now?

Using less energy a year from now in his house than the average American?

What about Inhofe? Nazi pig!

[AndyA]

4. Boxer just slapped Inhofe down!

Said she would not stop the clock.

"How can you ask a question and not allow the man a minute to answer it?"

[AndyA]

9. AND SHE JUST DID IT AGAIN!

"I make the rules. You did when you were here, but I make the rules now."

[FuzzyDicePHL]

14. THAT WAS AWESOME!!!

ROFL

[FuzzyDicePHL]

5. What I didn't understand was

why Boxer included Lieberman when she addressed, "my side." :-(

[Trouser Trout]

6. Can you believe this Jerkhofe

Wanting Gore to pledge regarding his own residence? Something straight out of Hannity or Limbaugh"s playbook. Asshole !

[Alcibiades]

11. Gore must pledge about his house

but no one from the white house will come to testify under oath about the USA firings.

[Alcibiades]

7. Senators count service in the Senate

as the highest honor possible to accord a human being. That's why so many want to run for president--they are all already overqualified.

[bdamomma]

8. those repigs give total disrespect for past VP shows how

they have no class and are not professional.

[nadinbrzezinski]

10. Gore WAS a senator

that actually was proper...

[Benhurst]

16. No, by tradition one is referred to by the highest title to which he

or she has been elected or appointed. Claude Pepper of Florida served in the Senate then the House. He was always referred to as Senator Pepper.

Gore was vice president (and elected president). Therefore he would be referred to as such.

Bush was elected Governor of Texas. According to tradition, he should be referred to as Governor Bush. But, given the fact he was appointed to the presidency by the Supreme Court and went on to "win" another fixed election, he is referred to president.

12. Oh Man what a smackdown by Boxer !

I yelled out in my office ! I've never done that before.

[AndyA]

13. Inhofe is showing his huge, gaping ASS right now.

The man isn't even at Jethro Beaudean's eduction level!

Oh, I can't stand this man. He gives Oklahoma a bad name. We are NOT all like him!

[SutaUvaca]

15. Been watching on Cspan3

Inhofe consistently said "Senator" while everyone else refers to Gore as VP.
I had to get up and walk away from the computer as Jerkofe spewed on.
Goddam he is sickening.

[Gman]

17. Actually, it was a sign of respect because

once a Senator, you are always go by the title "Senator" regardless of how long you served or been gone from the Senate.

I don't know if that supercedes the Vice President title or not. I know a president is always called president. Perhaps, Inhoffe should have said "Mr. Vice President". But he was not in error calling Gore "Senator".
