I would think bigotry against Muslims.

Whenever I read someone referring to Obama as Hussein, I can't help but interpret it as, they are saying/typing the word with more disdain, than I have when I mention the letter "W" in reference to 43.

I have a question, if McCain's middle name was Ahmed, and Obama's middle name was Jethro, would you still vote against Obama?

The real question is would you have still voted for him? The only Jethro I have ever heard of was the son of an oil baron.Jethro Clampet.

Sure, if I agreed with his policies.

As far as Jehtroes, I know his real name is Ian Anderson, bu thow 'bout......http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyzfD0VqDW8

And in that case, I would mos def vote fer 'em.

Really!? I love the older stuff...anything up to "Justice"...the Black album,and everything after...sucks ass(except for the new one...I really dig that).I listen to almost everything,though,depending on my mood. Johnny Cash,Willie Nelson,Zep,Sabbath,Buddy Holly,Skynyrd,Beatles,Floyd,Megadeth...you name it.

I guess I agree, once again...... I still find myself banging my head to Master of Puppets, whenever it comes on....... Everyone else that you listed is good in my book. But everything we have mentioned is nothing comparable to what I listen to mostly, which is punk.

Now that he has become elected, the democratic party has changed their view on using his middle name.

Before it was "how dare you mention his middle name".

Now it is "well it is ok if someone mentions it now, because everybody knows of it now and ok, yes it is his middle name"

One of the stupidest things I have ever heard. If Obama didn't like it or wanted it, he could have changed it or dropped it, but it was his party that took offense of it, not him.

It was as if they were trying to silence the knowledge to the voters of the name and the meaning of the name.

Anyone care to look up the herritage or meaning of the name? It may be suprising to know the roots or true meaning of the name.
