Let's All Walk on Eggshells
February 26th 2008 18:59
Boy, we really have to be carefull these days, don't we? Wouldn't want to "offend" anyone! The pictures of Barak Hussein Obama dressed in traditional Muslim garb has been considered wrong by the Clinton campaign, who put them out. All world leaders dress in traditional garb of the countries they visit, why should Obama be different? Unless, of course, his Muslim roots make it look like he enjoyed it. Then we have Sen John Sidney McCain, apologising to Barak Hussein Obama for daring to use his middle name. What's up with that? Unless, of course, the "Hussein" in Barak Hussein Obama means that he's a Muslim sympathizer...
What's in a name? Shakespeare asked many years ago... We apparently still haven't figured it out. Is all the eggshell walking because people are so terrified of "offending" Obama that they fear to use either photographs or his full name? Or could it be that his Muslim history is a possible "offense" to others? Others being those who remember 9/11 and don't want someone in the White House who saw nothing wrong with it? Or is the whole scenario an invention to make Obama look better than he is? Or perhaps a scam to convince us that it's perfectly acceptable to look the other way... so as not to offend a Muslim?
I don't give a tinkers damn what his middle name is or what costume he once wore. What matters to me is that he would be an atrocious president. Not one whit better than Hillary. And only slightly more repugnant than the eggshell walking, aisle crossing McCain.

With that being said, I despise the use of Obama's middle name and the release of the picture. Those aren't substantive arguments and they only represent the petty tricks that make folks so cynical about politics and politicians.
