^^^exactly



and as if george and his stupidity didn't do anything to earn his 8 years of bashing.

That's your opinion, and no more valid than if I were to say "as if Barack and his Muslim upbringing aren't doing anything to earn these mentions of his middle name."

Muslim upbringing? What makes you think Barack was brought up as a Muslim?

I agree that a person's assesment of GW Bush's intelligence is a matter of opinion. But Obama was not raised as a Muslim. That's not an opinion; it's a fact. Therefore your post above is fundamentally-flawed.

Stupidity? What makes you qualified to think a Yale and Harvard Business School graduate is stupid?

LOL! I didn't say he was stupid. That was someone else. I actually think he is a very intelligent person.

That said, if you can't see a difference between the statements "Bush is stupid" and "Obama was raised as a Muslim" as the former being an opinion and the latter a factual one, there's no point in going further with this discussion.

And there are plenty of rich kids with powerful parents who graduate fro Harvard or Yale. Doesn't mean they are not stupid. I'm sure Paris Hilton's parents could have gotten her into an Ivy League school, if she wanted. Does that change the fact that Paris is a moron?

the question posed was "which presidential candidate do you think Osama Bin Laden would want in office".


i thought the video would get at least a chuckle out of somebody, lol.  shoulda known it would just spark more debate.

Are you fucking serious?? What's the worst thing to be painted...a bumbling texas redneck or SADDAM HUSSEIN.

Putting emphasis on the name HUSSEIN is meant to do only one thing: incite angry feelings about 9/11, terrorists, iraq and al qaeda.

Dubya makes me think the man is a bit dumb but not a fucking MURDERER.

the two aren't even close. these talk show hosts, like the one mccain himself condemned for his inappropriate rant are preying on people's fears and its fucking disgusting.

they aren't going to be making comedy shows about barack plotting attacks on the us with saddam and osama.  give me a fuckin break

Are you fucking serious? It's his name.

I guess we're supposed to pretend he has no middle name so as to avoid accusations of inciting angry feelings about terrorists and Al-Qaeda. We can't have that.

Not at all, but intent is a big part of it.

The whole reason people could pray on W's middle name is because thats what people called him to differentiate him from his Dad.

People are calling Obama by his full name just to get the Hussein out there.  They put an emphasis on that part of his name SPECIFICALLY to incite these feelings.

Its disgusting.

you're entirely missing the point. someone can be named hussein and have absolutely nothing to do with terrorism or al-qaeda as much as you'd like to think otherwise.
