There’s been a big flap in Ohio because an Ohio radio talk show guy named Bill Cunningham emceed a John McCain rally and several times referred to Senator Obama using his full name, Barack Hussein Obama.

The Democrat base and their far left, loony, socialist-leaning, uber liberal, redistribute-the-wealth friends got their shorts in a twist. Somehow, using Barack Hussein Obama’s middle name gave them a huge wedgie and they didn’t like it.

Why not? It’s his name. On his birth certificate. Why shouldn’t anyone be allowed to use it?

I’m being naive. Of course we know why — because it’s the same name as the brutal dictator we overthrew in Iraq and it’s a Muslim name. In case anyone hasn’t heard, a small but significant percentage of the Muslim population wants to destroy us. The Obama supporters are rightly defensive about the middle name “Hussein.” In today’s poltical climate, I’d be defensive about it, too.
