Your response made absolutely no sense what so ever, in regards to the thread or the post you were responding.

Get real. The poster doesn't like someone using Obamas real middle name and says it isn't normal. I only cited another case. Get over it.
No, I wasn't saying that. I said it had been discussed. Thoroughly. Are you joking? You're telling me not to tell YOU what to post, then say you don't want to see anymore (sic) Bush, Chaney (sic) etc. postings?

No one calls Obama "Hussein", let alone "hussein", another act of disrespect.

Nice try but your thread FAILS.
I thought the teabagging party had no members. I wish you guys would make up your minds, either you have members or you don't.

He is sometimes referred to by his middle innital or as Dubya, the phonetic play on W , to differentiate him from his dad George H W Bush. Since there has never been a past president called Barack Obama, there is no need to use Obama's middle name Hussein as a means to differentiate .

Does Dubya carry a negative connotation? Was there another President named George Bush? Dubya is not a mispelling, it is just a phonetic play on W that people sometimes use .

So the title of Oliver Stone's movie W. (aka Bush) is meant to distinguish what... Dubya from M. ?

It is meant to distinguish the 1st Bush president from the 2nd president Bush. Or it could be Stone thought that simply saying W not only tells people the movie is about the 2nd Bush but that W by itself has more presence due to its curtness.

Saying W or Dubya is the same thing, the latter is just how some people pronounce W.

I was watching an avowed tea bagger yesterday get up and address Rick Santorum at the SRLC and in her words she said she is tired that in America she calls a company and she has to dial 1 for English and that she was sick of it! An obvious reference to the Spanish language.
The entire room practically stood up and clapped & cheered! Way to go conservatives on how to endear yourself to hispanics who voted for Obama at nearly 66%!
