I have not heard this supposed incident but I bet the kids were not saying it with a negative context. They were just kids enthusiastically saying his name. When it is right wingers saying Hussein, they intend to make people think Obama is a Muslim. Why do you think John McCain apologized for Bill Cunningham saying Hussein.

You also know that not every instance of the use of Hussein is meant in a prerogative manner. Like for example if he was getting married or had to swear on the bible in court or some other official or ceremonial capacity where the defacto norm is for a person's complete name to be used.

It is the context of the use of Hussein , not the name itself.

Good grief. Go back a few posts.

According to a poster, the use of his middle name is an intentional ploy to draw attention to Obama's race/religion/heritage etc..meant ONLY in a negative way.

So...shame on those kids and their teacher!

All together now "Barack Hussein Obama, mmm, mmmm, mmmmm"

When you say "Hussein", you say it in a prerogative manner.

The name Hussein is meant to invoke:
Saddam Hussein,
Arab,
Muslims/Islam/Black Muslim.

Your intention is to subtly tell people that Obama is an outsider, not one of us, a crypto Muslim, an agent of a another culture that should be seen as a threat to Christian Euro America.

The MSM says Barack Obama not Hussein Obama.Those invoking his middle name during the campaign were called out on it. When a Talk Radio host Bill Cunningham called Barack Obama as Barack Hussein Obama when introducing John McCain, John McCain did the right thing in denouncing the guy.

It is also not normal to elect a president that hates America and bows way down low like a common house servant to the leaders of foreign countries or decorates the white house christmas tree with murdering dictators and transvestite ornaments or filling his administration with America haters, bigots, racists, communists, marxists, socialists, union thugs, tax dodgers or a gay that approves of adult child sex YET that s what we have.<------there is my special exception for hussein obama

Your proof or is this something that you heard Beck or Rush say so it must be the truth.

Keep that old race card handy as you many need it again sometime. Play it every chance you get especially where the Tea Party is concerned.

I am surprisd you have such fear of hussein obama's name. I thought you were one of his supporters.


It really strikes me as racism when people fear a foreign name. I have been to many Tea Parties and have yet to hear a racist word about hussein obama but I am sure there are a few who have those feelings. Of course I have seen far more racism from the left right here on CD than I have seen from the right at Tea Parties. Strange, huh?

And play it they will Roy, of that there is no doubt. For every Tea Party event that has 99 signs dealing with the growing government, out-of-control spending and a tone-deaf administration, make no mistake that they will point to the one unfortunate outlier sign from the fringe. They'll post it, point at it, and loudly proclaim PROOF of the inherent racism of the movement.

Because that's much easier and more convenient than the reality that many, many 'normal' people..all sexes/races/political party have a growing concern about policies that don't reflect their wishes; spending that is never-ending; politics that are fraught with backroom deals.

So let them continue their derision and dismissal I say. Continue to parrot what they're told by too much of an ever-partisan and negligent media. The Tea Party will succeed or flounder on it's own merits. It continues to find its' voice, grow in numbers and importance. It's shown some effects already. The voices of the detractors and claims of racism will always be there; those voices will have less impact as the movement solidifies and stays true to it's message.

Make no mistake about this, the left wingers (hussein obama's minions and union thugs) have been organizing to infiltrate the Tea Party protests carriying racist and mispelled signs to make the Tea Party look bad. People attending the Tea Parties need to take pictures of and get the license of anyone displaying signs like this.

Crash The Tea Party!

I've hears tell of this. "Tea party crashers" they call themselves. It's interesting how every conservative movement, that loudly disagrees with the current administrations policies and agenda, is labeled 'racist' out of hand. Makes McCarthyism look tame, in comparison. Or at least it could be readily compared to the latter. Disagree with Obama and company, your a racist. Profess conservative beliefs, your a racist. Don't agree with liberal/progressive dogma, in general, your a racist. Exercise your 1st amendment rights to publicly protest the liberal/progressive agenda, your a racist. Does the left wing camp have ANY other argument other than racism to stand on? On top of using the R word for their catch phrase, they also cite 'irrefutable proof' that the TEA party movement, and conservatives in general, are ALL racists. Oooook, still waiting to see that.
