"Speaker Boehner" vs. "Pelosi"....
Something I've noticed the last few days, which irritates to no end. When the media refers to Boner it's always with the "Speaker" title. When referring to Madam Speaker Pelosi, it's just "Pelosi" or "Nancy Pelosi".... I know it's a small thing and I'm probably being petty but it just stands out to me. Fasten your seat belts....

1. No, it's NOT a small thing.

Just more obvious subtleties of the MSM! Good distinction. Thanks for pointing it out.

<edited to add:> And I like your handling of his name. It's exactly what I call him, and that shall never change.

2. More of that to come
Just wait for the daily Boner press conference. You will see more Boner in a few weeks than we did of Nancy Pelosi for 4 years.

3. Some people seem physically unable to type the words "President" and "Obama" next to each other.

4. Many people -right and left-didn't like Nancy Pelosi, but I predict she will become
much more popular after a few weeks of Boner as the Speaker...We didn't appreciate it when we had it.

6. Well, I, for one, will be referring to him as...
...The Blubbering, Booze-addled Human Cheeto.

But, yeah, I noticed, too. I am not surprised, however. It's just more diminishing the Democrats at every chance they get. The only thing that surprises me is that the MSM (excluding PoxNews) has not taken to referring to the "Democrat Party". Yes, their guests are allowed to get away with it, but the talkinghead anchors haven't done so--yet.
