Would you consider Barack Obama the first black president?

Yeah.

Why don't people use McCain's middle name?

Oh, because they're not trying to smear him.

Yeah, I never heard people make fun of Bush's Texan accent and call him Dubya. Never.

I mentioned McCain.

Did you confuse him for Bush? That's what them left wingers want.

and I mentioned Bush as an example..you know, our current president?

And I am sure the left wingers do want that. But somehow I doubt it will help them from completely having the election in their hands and then throwing it all away like they usually do.

Dubya is often used by people who like Bush. It's more of a nickname than a put down.

Hussein is not. It is only used by people who dislike Obama in a lazy attempt to create some lousy insinuation about him.

So yes, apples and oranges. Choose better examples next time.

Really? Not from my experience. It is usually said by the ignorant bunch who seem to think the only ones who agree with Bush are rednecks, so the use of Dubya is mocking a southern accent..southerners at times being stereotyped as redneck.

But to each their own I guess.

Yes it's used by those who dislike him as well.

It all comes down to intent - that's the bottom line.

Hussein is Obama's middle name, so to use it for a real reason is one thing, but a person's intent is pretty clear usually. It's not difficult to tell if they're trying to use it against him or not. Same with Dubya.

Yeah, so I just find it funny how some here get their panties in a bunch when someone says Hussein, when they them self have probably used Dubya with a derogatory intent at some point or another.

yes, because making fun of how he pronounced his own campaign is as bad as labeling someone a terrorist because their skin isnt white.

Sidney sounds like a girl's name.

Is America ready for a gay president!?

The population of Texas would quadruple in a week.

Halle Berry was the first black woman to win an Oscar for Best Actress. Because that's how she identifies herself and how the general public perceive her. Despite being estranged from her black father and being raised by her single white mother.

While Tiger Woods refers to himself as Caublasian.

Caublasian 😂

John McCain has lost his marbles and is too old to speak.

Crazy how he immediately corrects himself (without the help of others) when he makes a mistake.

Crazy how he's right. Asthema patients shouldn't be taking up a bed in a hospital when it's not an illness that should do so; as it was when I was three and spent as many days in the hospital for my asthma.

Yeah, I was impressed how it took him only 5 or 6 seconds to correct himself the first time..but second time it took him a while to figure out the word inhaler...lost points there IMO.

Nothing wrong with calling him Hussein.

Oh yeah, I'm sure everyone's heard of President Jefferson, Walker, Herbert, Earl, Milhouse, Fitzgerald, Baines etc.

Hmmm, if Obama ain't president, I can only imagine what wonderful art will happen, let's just say art is a bang.

I'm pretty sure people have heard of President Jefferson...
