um sarcasm is not needed kthx.
You seem to be so quick to jump down my throat for stating my opinion.
maybe if I worded it a little differently.
As an American citizen by birth, a regular, living, breathing human being. just going about my day, I say that this issue with his middle name is
bullocks. I could care less what his middle name is. Before you go on the "you're just an Obamatron!" rant, I'll say that I didn't vote for
Obama. I didn't vote for McCain either, I really don't care much for politics, my mother is a politician and I try to stay as far away as possible
from that arena. Stay informed, formulate my own opinions, go from there.
So I'd appreciate it, if you thought a little bit about the responses you're getting. It seems to me that you're so riled up over this issue that
you are willing to judge people immediately over their response if it doesn't line up with yours
I don't even know what this "Military Man" thing has to do with call me ignorant whatever.
Sure he "ran" from his middle name throughout the campaign, just like McCain used it against him. If I had a nickel for every "Vote McCain not
Hussein" bumper sticker I saw I'd be filthy rich.
All I said, is that people are making a big fuss over him using his middle name, he's a hypocrite, so what, Peter denied Jesus three times, he's a
hypocrite too. We've all been hypocrites at some point in our life. I've dressed up and played the part of the "picture perfect political family"
but in real life I'm just the average black sheep of the family (piercings and tattoos hidden for campaign photos!), so that makes me a hypocrite
everyday I deal with those things
Long story short, it's his middle name and doesn't matter to me because guess what, IT'S JUST HIS MIDDLE NAME, he comes from a different background
than mine, who am I to judge a person based on their MIDDLE NAME. Hell there is even talk about whether or not that is his real name.
Maybe I was just raised differently.
