Remember "Reaganomics?" The media did it to him, too. Oh, and "Bushisms/Bushspeak?" I do notice that the media does refer to Pres. Obama quite a bit by his last name only, sans title. That annoys me. Call me old fashioned, but we were taught to respect the office if not the man or the policies and that means using the title. Even more disrespectful is the way oridinary citizens butcher the President's name.
