"Okay, am I the only one who laughed when he called her "Leader Pelosi?" Sounded so silly. Now Tom is blaming Bush for cancer."

It's not silly, it's scary. In North Korea, a person risks death (no joke) if they do not refer to Kim Jong Il or Kim Il Sun as "dear leader."

. . . and dear old dead dad is still "The Great Leader." He's also nominally still the head of state even though he's assumed room temperature. See a hilarious article by a Polish diplomat in National Review that describes how this works.
