"...I tried to change my name to Jordan Fark Golson, after Drew Curtis' headline aggregator..."

Wintermute6: You forgot to mention the Fark shoutout, Subby:

A hat tip to Drew. Thought my hed was funnier, but wtf do I know?

Protesting what?

Bloody William: Protesting what?

It seems that Obama supporters do not appreciate his opponents referring to him by his full name. I don't think that's necessary, but then the loudest complaints around here come from people who think things like "pancakes" and "McSame" contribute to thoughtful political discourse. Frankly, both those kinds of people make me question the wisdom of universal franchise.

Excuse me - "some" Obama supporters. Not all. Most seem easily capable of glossing over the "Hussein" thing.

Can McCain supporters change their name to "Sidney"?

Bloody William: Protesting what?

Their fursecution.

I used to hate Obama because his name sounds like Osama, but the TV just said to forget Osama and to hate Russia instead.

Wasn't the whole referring to Obama by his full name thing over with at least a month ago? These facebook supporters sound kinda slow.

Constantly hammering on "Hussein" as a name is stupid because you're doing it to provoke a xenophobic reaction. Barack Hussein Obama was born in Hawaii to an American mother, went to school at Harvard, lived in New York, and developed his political career in Chicago. He is as American as you or I, whether you want to question his language, his traditions, or his beliefs. He is an American.

But honestly, that alone isn't what bothers me. The coy bullshiat is what really pisses me off. No, you are not just "referring to him by his full name." You are not just "pointing out his middle name." You are pointedly referencing it with every chance you get because of the political benefits you think you might gain. You are constantly mentioning that he is Barack Hussein Obama because you think you might scare away enough people who have "had enough of Hussein," or who are stupid enough to think he might have something to do with the Arab world. You're not even admitting it. It's disingenuous and, frankly, cowardly. shiat, you guys use Obama's middle name more than you did Hillary Rodham Clinton's middle name, even though she expressly uses the damn thing herself.

Reminds me of the time I was playing Quake II with some racist asshat. Kept yelling nubian this, nubian that, fark 'em, lynch 'em, directed at this guy whose handle was "Big Black Man."

Well, soon enough, just about everyone on the server changed their names to "Big Black Camper" or "Big Black CominAtcha" or "Big Black Racist-slayer" or anything along those lines. Ran the dude off the server. Pretty funny. ;)

"...I tried to change my name to Jordan Fark Golson...

Attention whore.

There are enough reasons to dislike Obama than him (possibly) being Muslim.

Ha ha hilarious.

And that's exactly the course of action a successful terrorist would take. The man just blends right in.

DeltaXi65: Can McCain supporters change their name to "Sidney"?

Sidney is a girl name.

Most people already know me by Frito Hussein Pendejo anyways, so this isn't anything new to me.

Bloody William: shiat, you guys use Obama's middle name more than you did Hillary Rodham Clinton's middle name, even though she expressly uses the damn thing herself.

Who, me? I'll take you to lunch at Galatoire's if you can find one instance of me posting "Barack Hussein Obama." (That is, not quoting someone else, or doing it in the previous sentence.) I don't care for lowering the debate like that.

Still baffled as to why it matters. It's just his name, folks. There's this thing called coincidence, look it up.

/don't see anyone else pointing out that we still have a Dick and a Bush in office...

Wow. Is America really this retarded?

Hussein isn't an uncommon name in some parts of the world.

Just too many negative connotations in the west.

Bloody William: Protesting what?

Protesting the cynical, deliberate use of HUSSEIN when referring to Obama. Of course, those accused of doing so just say that's Obama's middle name, so what's the big deal? However, you don't see or hear anti-McCain people going around using SIDNEY in a charged way - or in any way, for that matter.

Bloody William:
You are constantly mentioning that he is Barack Hussein Obama because you think you might scare away enough people who have "had enough of Hussein," or who are stupid enough to think he might have something to do with the Arab world.

I have relatives who truly, firmly believe he's a Muslim, so I'm not getting a kick...

/Srsly
//Thought they were kidding at first

Go ahead. Change your middle name to Hussein. I guarantee that those who do get watched.

Nabb1...those kinds of people make me question the wisdom of universal franchise.

THIS

Jesus Hussein Christ...yeah, I like the sound of it!

Why would I want to change my name to Hussy'n? Oh... Wait I get it. Sorry,I am the product of public school.

I hate Chevy: Nabb1: Excuse me - "some" Obama supporters. Not all. Most seem easily capable of glossing over the "Hussein" thing.

I don't think it's worth getting upset over. Maybe a momentary chastising, but changing one's Facebook name seems like a bit of an overreaction.

Speaking of middle monikers, Rodham always sounded a little rude to me. A rod in a ham. Maybe that's just my brain though.

It depends on the context (like most things). I can call you "sir" in a way that actually means "fukc you". You'll know it, I'll know it, but it's nothing you can prove.
When someone calls Sen. Obama "Barack HUSSEIN Obama", that's an "OMG he's a muslim racist manchurian candidate!!11!" moment.
It's his name, but it's no big deal, unless you insist on emphasizing it, and don't refer to Sen. McCain as "John Sydney McCain III".

Fanatic Obama supporters remind me of the "it's still real to me dammit" wrestling guy.

/neither are able to accept that it's all a facade.

BLACK, _(Saddam) HUSSEIN, OSAMA.

If you forward this email to enough people Bill Gates will give us all 435$, I saw it on Good Morning America.

FunkOut: Speaking of middle monikers, Rodham always sounded a little rude to me. A rod in a ham. Maybe that's just my brain though.

A rod in your ham??? More likely than you think...

My father sent this email to me today.

The Presidential election was too close to call. Neither the Republican candidate nor
the Democrat candidate had enough votes to win.. There was much talk about ballot
recounting, court challenges, etc., but a week-long ice fishing competition seemed the
sportsman like way to settle things. The candidate that caught the most fish at the end
of the week would win the election.

Therefore, it was decided that there should be an ice fishing contest between the two
candidates to determine the winner.

After much of back and forth discussion, it was decided that the contest take place on a
remote frozen lake in northern Minnesota .

There were to be no observers present, and both men were to be sent out separately on
this isolated lake and return at 5 P.M. with their catch for counting and verification
by a team of neutral parties. At the end of the first day, John McCain returned to the
starting line and he had ten fish.

Soon, Obama returned and had no fish. Well, everyone assumed he was just having another
'bad hair' day or something and hopefully, he would catch up the next day.

At the end of the 2nd day John McCain came in with 20 fish and Obama came in again with
none.

That evening, Harry Reid got together secretly with Obama and said, "Obama, I think John
McCain is a low-life, cheatin' son-of-a-gun. I want you to go out tomorrow and don't
even bother with fishing. Just spy on him and see just how he is cheating."

The next night, after John McCain returns with 50 fish, Harry said to Obama, "Well, tell
me, how is McCain cheating?"

Obama replied, "Harry, you're not going to believe this, but he's cutting holes in the
ice!"

"May I call you a cab?"

"I'll call you a cocksucker!"

/Obscure?

Fair enough. While I've disagreed with you, I don't recall you, in particular, shamelessly whipping out Obama's middle name in a disingenuous, coy attempt to gain fear-based political points.

skookum: Go ahead. Change your middle name to Hussein. I guarantee that those who do get watched.

Why bother? I'm already on your list. And I wanna dip my balls in it!

I came here for the Team America refs, dammit...



/Man can that guy act

Donald_McRonald: Bloody William: Protesting what?

/that was an epic thread.

If Barack HUSSEIN Obama wants my vote, he should start by driving this:

Everyone who does that should be hanged

Bloody William: you guys use Obama's middle name more than you did Hillary Rodham Clinton's middle name, even though she expressly uses the damn thing herself.

Hillary's middle name is Diane.

I agree with what you say about the a-holes that say "Barack Hussein Obama" and then very innocently, "What's the problem? I'm just saying his name?" They are definitely bottom of the barrel, xenophobic hate-mongers.

But Nabb1 isn't one of them.

Chummer45: Wow. Is America really this retarded?

Yes.

Bloggers have so much to be shocked about these days, don't they?

DAMN YOU, FACEBOOK!

Bloody William: you guys use Obama's middle name more than you did Hillary Rodham Clinton's middle name, even though she expressly uses the damn thing herself.

Her middle name is Dianne.
