Barack Hussein Obama
For those who think the President's name can indicate something: Grover Cleveland was not a muppet, James A. Garfield was not a fat orange cat, Herbert Hoover did not invent the vaccuum cleaner, and Gerald Rudolph Ford was not a reindeer, nor did he have a shiny red nose.

Just sayin'

7. They called him "W" because "WTF" was too hard for him to spell.

12. What's not nice?
It's "not nice" that Obama is giving tax-cheaters prominent positions in his administration --- positions in OUR ~ repeat OUR ~ government!

You and I are expected (and do pay our taxes).....Why should these tax-cheating people get 'special treatment'? Special treatment for being CHEATERS?

THAT'S what is WRONG within our USofA government right now. We allow people who are ignoring the laws to go unscathed, and in fact, rewarded!

Look at KKKarl Rove? Ignoring subpeonas....dates/deadlines.

These people 'get away with this' b/c NO ONE demands their accountability and ENFORCES THE RULE OF LAW/CONSEQUENES WHEN THEY DON'T COMPLY.

Wh've had our first lady "speaker of the House"......FAIL

We're having out first ethnic president.....it's his seond week, so I'll reserve judgement, but with the team that he's building, I'm not as hopeful as I was when I cried just that the *idiot* son was out of "our house*....

20. Sadly, most people don't like to pay taxes
"Forgetting" to put down things like nanny pay etc. have become so common, it happens every Presidential cycle these days. Not saying it's right, just saying most people I know have done something untoward WRT taxes at least once in thier lives.

13. Agreed. And King Hussein of Jordan was our good friend and ally back when he was alive...
... and somebody needs to start recollecting that so as to rehab the name.

Just sayin'

14. Not to mention...
what a ridiculously common name Hussein is in the Muslim world. It's like if there was once a terrible dictator named "Smith", and holding a grudge against all Smiths forevermore.
