Kind of nice because it's like a nickname for POTUS. Some have pointed out that it's hard to criticize the press for calling our president disrespectfully "Obama" if we do it too.

3. Do like they do on sports boards.
They use terms like "CHN" for Coach Houston Nutt or "CBB" for Coach Bobby Bowden. "PBO" would be President Barack Obama.

4.  Come to think of it, there is nothing wrong with BHO
It's amazing that no matter how free you think you are, your snapses have been splattered by media infiltration. BHO it is (at least for me)
