Why do you refer to the pres as B. Hussein Obama?

I know why I do it. I do it because during virtually the whole election process his campaign made such a big deal of NOT using it. They cry racist when anyone even mentions his middle name.

There was even a point when, just shortly before the election, all reference to his middle name was removed from his campaign website. Now that sounds like racists trying to distance B. Hussein Obama from his heritage. I am honestly surprised they didn't try to convince him to go as "Barry"...but then, that wouldn't have been ethnic enough, would it?

    I like to call him what he actually is by Websters Dictionary definition, a Mulatto, and a Marxist therefore, Obama is actually a Mulatto Marxist

    I have never called anyone racist for calling him B Hussein Obama. When I call them racist is when they say his middle name every single time they talk about him. We didn't say John Sidney McCain every time we referred to him.

    Big deal, he has an unusual name, get some balls and deal with it. OOO we are becoming more cultured. Who cares?

    Timothy McVeigh is a very 'American' name (well actually it was Irish) but anyways...he committed the biggest home made terrorist attacks in history. So how is there a correlation between names?

    Conservatives tried to emphasize it to use it as a scare tactic on misinformed Americans. And it worked, convincing many that he was a terrorist because his middle name is Arabic for 'gifted one.' It's said that America has become such xenophobes.

  • I could care less what his name is. President Barack Obama, President Obama, President Barack Hussein Obama, it makes no difference.
