John McCain Apologizes for B.O.'s Middle Name

While warming up a campaign crowd for John "Lettuce" McCain, radio talker Bill Cunningham took the opportunity to "club the baby seal" by laying into Barack Hussein Obama, even going so far as to refer to him as "Barack Hussein Obama." Lettuce was quick to apologize.
Asked whether the use of Obama's middle name — the same as former Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein — is proper, McCain said: "No, it is not. Any comment that is disparaging of either Senator Clinton or Senator Obama is totally inappropriate."
McCain said he didn't know who decided to allow Cunningham to speak but said he was sure it was in coordination with his campaign. He said he didn't hear the comments and has never met Cunningham, but "I will certainly make sure that nothing like that happens again."
As noted earlier, Obama owes his current success to having a name that combines those of America's two most prominent enemies of the past decade. Other than having a slick tongue and being mulatto, he possesses no other qualifications. But in the general election, reminding people of terrorists will no longer be the advantage it is in Democrat primaries.
Cunningham also ridiculed Obama's plans to powwow with dictators and state sponsors of terror, envisioning a future in which
the great prophet from Chicago takes the stand and the world leaders who want to kill us will simply be singing Kumbaya together around the table with Barack Obama.
Apparently such a harsh rhetoric will be banished by the McLame campaign. While it's noble of McCain to want to keep a high tone, if this signifies fear of being portrayed by the media as picking on the black guy, Republicans might has well start thinking ahead to 2012 right now — as conservatives already have.
On a tip from Wiggins.
