What is it wrong?
The 42nd US President was always officially introduced as William Jefferson Clinton. Nobody complained and nobody apologized.
Yesterday, during a rally, a roque radio personality referred to the Democratic Illinois Senator using his full name. The senator from Illinois is the son of the late Kenyan economist Barack Hussein Obama Sr. Hussein is a family name. His grandmother is Sara Hussein Obama. Senator McCain apologized for this incident. Was this reference to the Illinois Senators full name (Barack Hussein Obama) wrong? What is going on? Why do I feel that everyone is afraid to offend Obama by using his full name?

Re: What is it wrong?
We all have to be politically correct now, and I guess that using his middle name offended someone. Personally I don't give a damn what they call him.

Re: What is it wrong?
The media does not want folks to start thingking about a man running for President named Hussein. Ruins the teddy bear image.
