Why do a lot of you guys use the name "hussein" to reference Barrack Obama?
I've never really understood that.
A.) It's his middle name

A lot of red-neck dumb s, Repugs (the party of racists), right-wingers, nativists, xenophobes, chauvinists, jingos, conservatives simply won't vote for HUSSEIN because he's too "foreign", too "risky", too "unknown", to un-American-ly named, and above all because he's too non-white.
NOT because of his policies or principles, which they completely ignore.
I use HUSSEIN to throw their bitgotry, ignorance, and bad faith back in their faces.

Yeah, it's just stupid. Not like they couldn't make a bigger dent refuting his policies, but todays world is a world of the one liner and insult comics (as boutons so reliably shows).
Barack prefers that people use his middle name to express pride and solidarity with his fallen half-brother Saddam Hussein.
from the guy that almost daily spews "dubya"
on that's right. <snap> he's white.
Heluva job, Grimmtons_.![]()
For the same reason Liberals refer to Sen. John McCain as "McBush"; stupidity.
Seems sort of narrow minded and almost racist to infer that the name "hussein" is some how a bad thing.
Almost comically stupid. But i guess never under estimate the redneck population in the country.
His legal name is Barack Hussein Obama. If people hearing that are ashamed, who's fault is that? It is common to sometimes use a person's full name. Why should Obama be excluded?
We have all over time heard these presidents full name used:
John Fitzgerald Kennedy
Lyndon Baines Johnson
Richard Milhous Nixon
Gerald Rudolph Ford, Jr.
James Earl Carter Jr.
Ronald Wilson Reagan
George Herbert Walker Bush
William Jefferson Clinton
George Walker Bush

STFU. It's being used to incite fear in bigots. And you know it, so quit with the whole playing coy shtick.
I've been following this election pretty closely, and I've never heard John McCain's full name a single time. I had to go to Wikipedia to look it up.
Here are my questions for conservatives:
In Good Morning Vietnam did you think Robin Williams was the antagonist while the asshole sergeant was the protagonist?
If you didn't already feel like a dumbass for wanting to privatize social security, do you now?
It seems like there's an awful lot of your leaders who get busted having extra-marital, gay or pedophilic tendencies. It's not really a question, but that must suck for you- literally.
Do you find it frustrating that democrats get to gloat over the deficit sign being taken down under Clinton because he erased the deficit, while under Bush it came down because they had to add more digits?
How do you feel about being a party made up of dumb white trash with no morals and Christian conservatives with fake morals. I don't get how those two groups manage to reconcile their differences.
Doesn't it suck that you're going to lose this election and probably your ability to filibuster too? If our roles were reversed I'd feel pretty low about myself and my party too.
These are the questions I want answered.
I heard one lady say John F. McCain when introducing him about 2 months ago.
If you didn't already feel like a dumbass for wanting to privatize social security, do you now?
hahahahaha no. We all know the government is made up of dip s who will eventually just disqualify anyone making a decent wage and turn it into just another tax later down the road.
Probably as bad as you feel being a part of the ignorant low income government dependent modern-day slaves (just gimmie yo vote) or the far-left liberal FREAKS who worship at the altar of Gore thinking the government is trying to actually do good when in reality they are pushing your agenda for completely different reasons. Then there are all the fake liberal celebs who have empty lives and no idea why they believe what they spew to the public...How do you feel about being a party made up of dumb white trash with no morals and Christian conservatives with fake morals.
Man, this is just too easy.

Do you really believe this??
"If people hearing that are ashamed"
straw man. You're the first one to say ashamed, so you entire post is bull .
When right-wingers, such as yourself, use say HUSSEIN, it's clearly pejorative, to tie him to Saddam HUSSEIN, to Muslim terrorists, to everything foreign.
It's simple. All public figures get their names used in different variations. When they are respected, the form is used that is preferred. When not resopected, the form that causes grief is used.
It's so funny to see liberals get incited by the truth. This is one instance of that. I'm sorry if you guys are ashamed of his name. I'm sorry if he is ashamed of his name. As long as you let it get to you, it will be used.
You know what bothers me. Everyday, you hear people say "Mr. Bush." Like the man or not, that is disrecpctful for the media to say that. I get a bit mean myself at times, but notice, I almost always use the le when refering to president Clinton, president Carter, etc. even though I think of them as s .
The problem with this thread is that boutons_ calls him Hussein more than the rest of SpursTalk combined. Or HUSSEIN, to be factually accurate.
If you consider Jimmy Carter to be s then get ready to rot in when you die. He may not have made the best president, but the man is an absolutely and genuinely decent human being.
Wow talk about poor reading comprehension.
He does this ON PURPOSE to point out how slimy Republicans are for emphasizing this all of a sudden to paint him as a Muslim or Arab.
No, really?
You really are a sharp one![]()
I'll admit that s is the wrong word for him. However, he is one of the worse leaders in history. So may problems started on his watch. He is a nice man, but absolutely spineless.
So then what would your point be?
Damn, Obama s, take the stick out of your azzes. It's called a joke.
What stick? In case you didn't notice sarcasm is kind of hard to discern on the interwebs. I was asking a question. Maybe you need to remove the stick from your own ass.
