Is using Barack Obama's middle name wrong? Maybe not but the tactics and strategy employed by the McCain campaign is. Ask yourself why a middle name is important in an election. We don't hear anybody refer to John McCain as John Sidney McCain. This is very obviously a scare tactic to link Obama to Muslim terrorists even though no link exists. Obama is half white, half black, born in Hawaii with a mother from Kansas and a father from Kenya. He attended Harvard and became the first black editor of the Harvard Law Review. The terrorist insinuation is a thin veil for the racism that clearly exists in this election.

Anytime you use someone's name in a way that don't care for that's a slur. A sign you don't respect them.
If my name was John Theodore Thomas? And I made it clear I didn't like people calling me Theodore or using Theodore when calling my name that would be a perfectly normal reaction some people have to their odd or unusual middle names.
Wingers calling him by his full name, using Hussein, is just their way of showing disrespect.

You calling him Hussein is just your way of showing disrespect.
You're not fooling anybody.
Well at least they aren't calling him pitbull with lipstick or pig with lipstick or any number of other names McCain and Palin have been called.
Rodham isn't her middle name. She prefers to use her maiden name, Rodham, in conjunction with her middle name, Clinton.
Still...you hear the Rodham a lot, and other times just Hillary Clinton. Not necessary to use the Rodham, just like it's not necessarily to use the Hussein. But not wrong either.

Sorry, didn't see this before I posted.
