Gordon Bush’s insistence on referring to himself as “doctor”..

“Calling Dr. Howard, Dr. Fine, Dr. Howard.” In the classic Three Stooges short “Men in Black,” Moe, Larry and Curley pretend to be doctors, and silliness ensues.
St. Clair County Assessor Gordon Bush’s insistence on referring to himself as “doctor”– even though he hasn’t achieved that academic degree — also is silly, although in an embarrassing way.
Bush promised four years ago to stop using the title after he admitted that his doctorate from an unaccredited diploma mill wasn’t the real deal. Well, now he’s using an honorary doctorate from Wiley College in Marshall, Texas, that’s equally meaningless.
He had himself listed as Dr. Bush in the Southern Illlinois University Edwardsville’s Alumni Hall of Fame induction list. The doctor title is also listed on several Web sites.
It’s disappointing that SIUE would help perpetuate this farce. A university spokesman said Bush asked that the title be used and that they saw no harm in it.
No harm? As an ethics expert from Washington University said, it’s deceptive, dishonest and an insult to people who put in the years of work to earn that advanced degree.
If Bush so badly wants to be called doctor, he needs to go back to school and earn the title. Until then, stop it.
