Teech, which of the three names ofends you? I'd like to know why the middle one sound more Musilm to you?
He actually has a fairly coolish name to me, I still can get why the Dems are so freaked out about it
None of the names are offensive. It's the way his middle name is used by the right that's offensive.
LOL only if you choose to be offended by it. This really is Perplexing to me. Why is it the left leaners have absolutely no problem calling a sitting president the most vile and or childish names (using his name as a platform or just making things up) yet you all are having a fit when Hussein is used. Everyone knows that he isn't the dead leader of Iraq. The fact that he was born into a Muslin family and did attend some formal Muslim education is something that is a fact, that is something you and he will have to learn to live with.
To me Barrack sounds as Muslim as Hussein, the same thing holds true with the name Obama. So whatcha gonna do?
"LOL, only if y9ou choose to be offended by it." (Which the dummies who listen to the likes of you and Alpha Dog will, as you know.) You and Alpha may be idiots, but your targets are sub-idiots who will listen with awe and admiration to your drive, and buy it hook,line and sinker. Easy fish to catch!
LOL Cushi, the likes of you talking despairingly about the likes of us! Now that's rich.
"I Barrack Hussein Obama do Solemnly Swear" Yeah I'm sure you'll be quite offended if and when that line is said. I hope you'll be in the front row to yell at O to shaddup for saying his scary name out in public.
I have the sneaking suspicion that you do understand the issue but pretend not to.
BTW, I dislike the distortion of anybody's name. President Bush has done enough to condemn him on the basis of his actions; there is no need to distort his name. I find name-calling really childish no matter who does it.
Well there you go, I agreename calling is childish, but using a person's real name is not name calling "I Barrack Hussein Obama do Solemnly Swear", is a possiblility, and if he wins I will support him as long as I think he deserves my support regardless of him Party and 'real' name, which he had no choice in that matter.
If people want to make an issue of his name whether they claim it sounds scary and denotes some sort of association, or claiming it's off limits or racist or whatever your side claims, I say let them, it's really a waste of time and energy to make such a big thing about the man's real name.
