Self-Naming "Hussein" 1st Discourse-Transforming Aspect of Obama Cmpgn

Frankly, we prefer OUR idea -- calling Obama "Baruch", which is specifically aimed at the ludicrous Jewish fears / prejudices about him --

but having all these Obamaniacs call themselves "Hussein", as the New York Times is reporting today, is the FIRST positive discourse-related development I've seen from his campaign ...

He's still not overwhelming me with the substance of his policies -- not that I buy the idea that Hillary was anything better --

but maybe he'll be forced by the kind of weak-ass RPB "terror alert" baiting that Frank Rich also limns today to START saying something new and substantive re America's place in the world ...

which, as the pathetic hypocrite Tom Friedman correctly notes, is completely screwed ...

altho, in typical Friedman fashion, he fails to mention that he has supported just about every concrete measure -- starting with Iraq, but not limited to it -- that has led to the revolting situation America is in today ...

And if you think WE'RE saying this post facto, then just check out the archive since we started this thing ... ;-) ...
