Can you come up with a cite for that? Should he have asked 'Whom...'?
No, only that I saw it on TV - can't prove it but I know it happened. Who or whom - not the point, just the fact that Dubya seemed offended by the apparent, but obviously unintended slight.

You can find all the references in print you like, but I have never heard a British broadcaster refer to or address the PM as "Prime Minister May (or Cameron, Brown, Blair, Major, Thatcher etc etc ). " Prime Minister" or "Mrs May (etc)" would be the norm.

(What is JB for, but for arguing the toss over entirely unimportant trivia? )
