Quiet Republican Rises in Noisy Year - Wall Street Journal

"Mr." Boozman, O.D.

I wrote the WSJ way back when I was in optometry school about one of their articles, which referred to an optometrist as "Mr." yet referred to an ophthalmologist as "Dr.". They sent back a short, pissy response that said their "editorial policy" was to only refer to MDs, Dentists and Veterinarians as doctor. I see these POS still have that "editorial policy".

Congratulations Sen. (Dr.) Boozman!

They probably do not refer to lawyers as doctors either, so don't be offended. LOL.
 
Hmm. Guess I never realized a law degree was a doctorate. It is a 3 year program is it not? Well I guess the degree is J.D. so perhaps it is!
