TPM Cafe reports that the GOP is attacking Barak Obama's middle name, Hussein.
""If you thought Obama's last name was enough of a political pitfall, get this: Last night on Hardball, GOP strategist Ed Rogers ridiculed a potential Obama candidacy by using — possibly for the first time on cable news — Obama's little-known and politically unfortunate middle name. "Count me down as somebody that underestimates Barack Hussein Obama," Rogers said. Expect to hear this sort of thing again and again if Obama runs for President.""
No doubt about that, imagine if a Republican had an equally unfortunate middle name. Certainly the left would be too fair minded to make fun of Firstname "Adolph" Lastname.
Certainly it's not Obama's fault, his parents gave him his name before Saddam was doing his evil, but I have to wonder why Obama never changed his name? In fairness, Obama is a Muslim apostate,
Obama’s Dad, a Muslim from Kenya, left home when he was two. His Mom remarried and went with her new husband to Indonesia where Obama lived during his salad years. It is well known that Obama, the teenager lived with his grandparents in Hawaii, where he attended the same school attended by Hawaii royalty. Yet little is known about who Obama’s step father was. But some say that he was an Indonesian national and a Muslim. Still, Obama must have attended school in Indonesia. Is it possible that as a young Muslim boy he went to a Saudi madrassa?
Yes, that’s a possibility. The chapters in the Life and Times of Barak Obama always race ahead. It was during one of those chapters when we found him taking up community organizing in the Altgeld Gardens housing project on the south side of Chicago, when he converted to Christianity, formerly being secular.
As a fledgling Christian, Obama didn’t join just any church. He joined the United Church of Christ. The United Church of Christ is very anti-Israel and supports divestment. It also sponsors speeches at its many functions by the Arab "Christian" pro-terror religious organization, Sabeel. Sabeel holds some of its biggest meetings in Chicago.
OK, so there is some cause for concern, but we're going to give Obama the benefit of the doubt here and help him out by polishing up his image a bit.
I recommend changing Obama's middle name to something more Presidential, perhaps Barak Washington Obama, or Barak Roosevelt Obama...you get the idea, post your middle name idea in the comment section and why you think it could help his political career.
I'll pick the winner one week from now.
Prize to be announced.
