I guess McCain only supports bashing the American people, especially the Republican base. I remember when he called me and everyone who disagreed with amnesty a bigot, and also said lazy Americans won’t pick lettuce for $50 an hour. I will not vote for him regardless of what Communist is running against him. Ralph Nader is looking good to me now.
How is it a slam to call a candidate by his full name? Is Barack Hussein Obama ashamed?
In fact, it could be construed as a compliment referencing the former king of Jordan who is credited with creating stability at home and seeking peace with Israel.
McCain is full of it. To say he had never met the guy who introduced him is total BS. Then to distance himself from the introduction shows just how shallow the former POW is now.
How often do you hear Hillary referred to as Hillary Rodham Clinton. Most of the time. His middle name is troublesome only because it highlights what people fear most about him.
McCain said it was a slam!
McCain is an idiot!
McCain also said we need campaign finance reform…how’s that working out for him?!!!

I am just reporting the news!
bb: It’s willfully blind to say that mechanically repeating Obama’s middle name is not a slam. It’s like saying Bill Clinton’s North Carolina “Jesse Jackson won here twice” comment isn’t a slam. It’s like saying Hillary’s circulation of the Obama in African garb isn’t a slam.
Yes, all three are “true”. But what is their goal? What is the intention of repeating Obama’s middle name, comparing him to Jackson, or circulating that picture?
It’s to unfairly slam Obama among people who are vulnerable to that kind of irrational negativity. Any other conclusion is a lie.
An Obama candidacy is going to be very difficult for fear pedaling wing nuts because it will consistently backfire, as Clinton has learned.
With Obama, you guys are going to have to campaign on the issues and the results of conservative policies (ie Iraq, poor access to healthcare, the budget deficit, the crappy economy…), and you ain’t gonna enjoy it.
“How is it a slam to…” sounds like a second grader whinning because his mother won’t let him repeadedly taunt his little sister about falling off her bike. “But she did fall off her bike, she really did!”.
McCain gets it. His response is the same as mothers: grow up.
FYI
Rove: Don’t “Hussein” Obama
Lefty,
The guy is a radio talk show host…he was being provocative as radio talk show hosts do on both sides. McCain said he never met him before…I call BS!
I think Obama’s upbringing is an issue to some degree just as is the case with Robert Byrd who was grand poobah of the KKK. Using his middle name may get some people to check out this guy who came out of nowhere and is now likely going to be the 44th president.
You wrote — “With Obama, you guys are going to have to campaign on the issues and the results of conservative policies…”
Who are “you guys”? I will not be campaigning for McCain because the only significant difference between him and Obama is age and skin color.
But I will gladly campaign on conservative issues like fighting terrorists on their ground, reducing the size of government, lowering taxes and reforming entitlements with focus on privatization. Unfortunately there has yet to be a candidate who reflects these conservative values.
I’d like to apologise for everything lefthook says. I’ve never met lefthook and frankly I just walked into the room. But Lefthook probably said something offensive and well I would just like to apologise and I’m going to make sure that never happens again. I don’t know how I’m going to do that but I’m going to make sure because I just explained that.
Bill
Now I feel much better LOL!
Bart
I do think Rove is right!
John,
I am not advocating for McCain to address B. Hussein Obama by his full name. But I do not find anything wrong with provocateurs like Bill Cunningham, Ann Coulter or anybody else to do so. It is his name and it does have meaning relative to his background which should be considered before casting a vote for the guy.
Bart
The more they do it the more it helps Obama.
FYI
Insults, apologies fuel Obama’s rise
John,
The left will portray John Sidney McCain as an old, senile white guy…Obamageddon has already started doing this himself.
Do you think this will help McCain?
FYI
RNC denounces use of ‘Hussein’ in Obama’s name
That’s the problem with the RNC and why it cannot raise enough money to matter…they want to play nice in a sandbox full of bullys.
McCain will be cast as the old white guy. Either he and the GOP fire back or suffer the consequences. So far, I see no indication the RNC has any idea how to win this election starting with the nomination of the old white guy.
