barack hussein obama
Posted 47 weeks 2 days ago byI DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW ANYONE CAN VOTE FOR SOMEONE WITH THE MIDDLE NAME HUSSEIN. I FEEL HE WILL UNDERMINE ALL THE POSITIVE INROADS WE HAVE ACHIEVED. PLUS, I'M JUST UNEASY REGARDING HIS NAME, HIS MUSLIM TIES TO VOTE FOR HIM FOR THIS HUGE RESPONSIBILITY. HILLARY CAN DO A MUCH BETTER JOB. SHE HAS THE EXPERIENCE AND THE ABILITY TO HELP GUIDE US IN THE FUTURE.













Thoughts
Even Worse
Submitted on February 28th, 2008 by mxyzptlkI just learned that McCain's middle name is Sidney.
I'll stick with Hussein.
Having the name of Sarah or
Submitted on February 28th, 2008 by AnonymousHaving the name of Sarah or David doesn't make a person Jewish... So having the middle name of Hussein doesn't make him Muslim.
Having the name of "Brenda Lou" doesn't mean you're coming out of the Grinch movie... you're a human too.
Give the whole "hunt to ruin Obama's campaign" a rest and stop living your life under such biased conditions.
OBAMA
Submitted on February 25th, 2008 by AnonymousThough, Obama is not MUSLIM now the lineage still works through him energetically. Those worlds and that particular practice can be rough and if "it" wants "its" deeds done. The Jinn will find a way
Oh My God!
Submitted on February 23rd, 2008 by mxyzptlkI realized I don't know what John McCain's middle name is. What if it's Hitler?
And we don't know Hillary Clinton's real middle name. What she uses as a middle name is her maiden name. She's clearly hiding something. What if it's Mussolini?
We won't have anyone to vote for then.
Hussein
Submitted on February 23rd, 2008 by mxyzptlkI have so many questions for you brendalou...
Do you remember why George HW Bush always referred to the leader of Iraq as Saddam? It was because he didn't want the barely informed American public to confuse him with our ally, King Hussein of Jordan.
And why do you believe being Muslim is necessarily bad? Muslims, Christians and Jews have all done horrific things in the name of their religions, and right now it's mostly Muslims who are doing so. A small, dangerous minority of them.
Are you a religious intolerant?
Do you know how to release your caps lock key and stop yelling?
Did you know that Hussein is a common name in certain parts of the world?
If his name was Joe McVeigh would you oppose him because he shares the name of a terrorist that struck against America?
Since radical Muslims are the largest threat to America, and there and many millions of Muslims who could be recruited to join them, does it not occur to you that it would be helpful to have a president of the US who could help sway the majority of Muslims to consider that America and the west are good and not their enemy?
Have you ever heard of the United Church of Christ, the church that Barack Hussein Obama is a long time member of?
Do you believe people of all religions have a place in America?
I could go on...
Actually, Obama was raised
Submitted on February 23rd, 2008 by AshleyActually, Obama was raised as a Muslim, a former childhood friend stated, "Barack Obama was a Muslim, her went to Mosque."
Also, his first grade teacher, Israella Dharmawan, said, " Barry (Barack's nickname) was Muslim. He was registered as a Muslim, his father was a Muslim." Also, in his autobiography, "Dreams from my father" Barack admits to going to "A Muslim school." How about people check for facts before they post things.
Even people who said he was a Muslim had no facts to back it up. It's quite obvious to me that no one has read any of his books, for he admits to his Muslim childhood.
It's very scary how uninformed the voters are.
Obama re-do
Submitted on February 17th, 2008 by PatIs Obama going to increase welfare?
Is Obama going to cut our military
to pay for more welfare?
Is Obama going to increase taxes...and if you believe it's just on ONE class...what does that tell you. People are losing their homes because they bought homes on welfare.
If you don't work....don't expect the
USA to bail you out any more! But HE won't say that.
He recently said that if you are behind on your charge cards...he'll help you. If you can't pay for your home...he'll help you. Where is he getting this money???? What happened to people living within their means?
I'm sick of the welfare situation...
these people are the ones that are destroying our health insurances!
Look hard at Detroit and Atlanta people!
Let's give these "racism" charges a rest, folks
Submitted on February 12th, 2008 by BenThis is getting out of hand.
The amount of energy wasted arguing over Barack Obama's middle name is evidence of a massive failure of priorities. If Obama wins or loses, believe me, the media's alleged "failure" to mention his middle name won't be the reason.
Similarly, these sloppy charges of racism have dashed any hope of having a good discussion, at least on this thread. It's not good enough to say, "well Obama is a racist and his campaign is a racist, so there!" or "Oprah Winfrey is a racist, so there!" Such statements are about as substance-free as an Obama presidential debate performance. You may think it, but if you are going to make assertions, you need to back those assertions with facts: direct quotations or other evidence, backed with sources. Links help.
If we're going to talk about why Barack Obama should or should not be president of the United States, we need to focus on Obama's credentials, Obama's experience, and Obama's record.
Let's focus on the issues at hand. Otherwise, I'd be inclined to close the comments on this thread and simply move on.
You are calling Oprah racist?
Submitted on February 12th, 2008 by AnonymousThe two posts before this one are purely racist, yet the last post calls Oprah racist? How ironic. And sad.
Seriously folks, I'm amazed to see such ignorance as that shown by this blog poster and many of the people who agree with her here.
obama hussein
Submitted on February 12th, 2008 by AnonymousWhy does the media never mention the
middle name of Obama, are they afraid
that will hit home. Their are so many unanswered questions concerning him.
The media speaks of Bill running the
show, how about Michelle Obama.
I think this campaign has become all
about race. Although some are afraid
to talk about race. This country will
be so divided if Obama wins. The
africian Americans are coming out of
the woodwork. As for Oprah, she is the
biggest racist I could think of.
barack Obama
Submitted on February 12th, 2008 by AnonymousPlease Wake up America,
Start talking to your seniors and your young voter’s educate them
On the importance of their vote and the conscience on casting the wrong vote
Just to be cool! Ask them not to vote a straight ticket, they should take their time and vote out the politicians that did not listen to us or help us in any way.
Explain the Grand Amnesty to him or her and that each person that is granted amnesty can legally bring in #270 family members a piece!
O’bama looks like a big bright shining light of hope and in sound but, when
He speaks of change, change of what? Obama speaks of hope, hope of what? He needs to explain himself in detail to become a Presidential nominee. He needs a Q&A debate!
You have to take a good look at his record, the books he wrote, what he has said, in one of his debates he said he helped co-write the McCain/Kennedy amnesty bill and that he will give drivers license to illegals. Our young ones are great at surfing the web; challenge them to find info on the blogs or u-tube.
Tell them to look up illegal immigration and they will see the impact it has had on our country before they vote. The new saying for the new voter and our collage students is “Don’t tell Mama you’re voting for O’bama”
Tell them that our tax dollars paid for $700,000.00 anchor babies last year alone.
Explain to our love one’s that our Economy, Jobs, Housing, the war on terror and, our nation’s security is nearing the breaking Pointe, were in crisis mold. Were also in danger of becoming a one party system.
In addition, once that takes place no one in Washington will never listen to us again, our voice will be silenced, (Stonewalled) We need a two party system to keep congress on their toes (check and balance)
Inform them what the MSM has been doing and, that they are trying to silence talk radio.
We are in real trouble here; we have to move quickly before it is too late!
“This is not a personality contest” This is a vote for the next President of the United States of America.
It is not cool to ruin our country!
You are an idiot. Did you
Submitted on February 11th, 2008 by AnonymousYou are an idiot. Did you pick your middle name. What the hell does someones name have to do with anything ? You really need to get a brain.
"Shady past"
Submitted on February 11th, 2008 by JoelThat's not good enough for me, actually. Throwing out vague, unsupported accusations of unsavory behavior doesn't serve any kind of truth.
We, as Americans, have the profound privilege of choosing our leaders: Each one of us has a voice in that decision. And, not to go all "Spiderman" here, but with power comes responsibility. As a voter, you should want to cast your vote based on known, proven truths instead of (possibly, probably) false rumors.
I'd feel the exact same way if the person in question were, say, a Republican. That's why I'm critical of (unproven, unproven, unproven) 9/11 conspiracy theories, even though, politically, I'm pleased with anything that weakens George W. Bush.
I believe that truth transcends our politics, but that politics should never, ever "transcend" truth.
Feel free to offer documentation of a "shady past" in this forum. Expect that vague and unsupported accusations -- no matter where they come from across the political spectrum -- will be challenged every time.
shady past

Elaborate, please.
you know what?
Submitted on February 11th, 2008 by erick99you know what? i'll tell ya.we shouldn't judge people on their names.
not that i would vote 4 barack obama anyways. he has too much of a shady past.but dain is a sucktacular name.

Well then
Submitted on February 11th, 2008 by Joel"I'm not accusing Obama of being muslim - but I wouldn't vote for anyone with the name Hitler either. Would you? We do not know enough about the man is all I'm saying."
Brendalou is trying to have her cake and eat it, too. But it doesn't stand.
She wants to make a big deal about Obama's middle name, implying that it means something pernicious about him. But when people (correctly, I think) name what she's implying, she denies responsibility ... then embraces it again with the "Hitler" comment. It doesn't wash.
I'm not sure what more we need to know about Barack Obama, but his religion is one thing we're very clear about. Go down and read where I re-posted Ben's comments. Barack Hussein is not a Muslim. Barack Hussein is a Christian.
No, a candidate named "Hitler" probably couldn't win a vote in this country -- but given that we know nothing about the candidate or his/her positions aside from the name "Hitler," we can safely assume that the name has *nothing* to do with whether that candidate would be a good officeholder or not. In other words: It's all PR and no substance.
The same goes for Barack Obama and the kerfuffle about his middle name. The people who keep saying "Barack Hussein Obama" don't have anything real to offer except fear. We can do better than that.

funny
Submitted on February 11th, 2008 by OnShakedownit's funny how the title of the post is all lower case.
Understanding
Submitted on February 11th, 2008 by JohnnyYou don't understand how anyone can vote for someone with the middle name Hussein? What part don't you understand? That one might judge a candidate on the substance of their beliefs? That middle names are rather inconsequential? Do you not understand how someone could vote for someone with just the name Hussein, or any Arab name in general? Do you only understand voting for traditional European names? Right after you figure out voting on substance, work on understanding that caps lock.
Barack Obama is not Muslim
Submitted on February 11th, 2008 by JoelHi brendalou:
I agree with kevinkind: Nobody cares about Hillary Clinton's middle name. And since Obama isn't Muslim.
My friend Ben has posted this before, and I think it's worth reposting:
*****************************
Please, let's put this preposterous rumor to a rest. Barack Obama is not a secret Muslim.
See here, here, here, and here.
I'm not a Barack Obama fan at all. But peddling these rumors and conspiracies does his opponents no honor. Stop it.
