How many people have been suspended for referring to Obama as Osama?

[ProSense]

Oh, man -- first CNN, now Yahoo News. As you know, CNN has apologized to Barack Obama for putting his name on a picture of Osama Bin Laden.

[Xipe Totec]

1. Not enough by far

your point?

[jillan]

2. Someone did that on CNN the other day.

Maybe Obama should put his foot down about this, because if he is the nominee - the gopers are going to do it non-stop and say oops.
Just like they put a D next to McCain's name on Fox yesterday - oops.

3. Shit happens. Remember when Ted Kennedy had a hell of a time saying

Obama instead of Osama?

[ProSense]

4. "Shit happens." Does that go for Shuster too? n/t

[gateley]

6. No, and stop knee-jerk reacting. I was obviously referring to the

UNINTENTIONAL Obama/Osama slips, otherwise I would have mentioned Shuster.

Sheesh.

EDIT to add I'm not a Hillary supporter, if that's where you think I'm coming from.

11. Knee-jerking? An unintentional slip is the same as putting his name on a photo of Osama? Ludicrous!

n/t

[gateley]

19. Okay - we just won't agree on this one, ProSense.

Peace. :hi:

[gateley]

7. DUPE

[sidwill]

5. Zero

I repeat, ZERO.

[yardwork]

8. I don't think that Democrats should take any of this.

It's not ok, and it's time we started saying so.

Stop defending the right-wing media. They attack Democrats all the time, and when we don't call them on it, we lose.

9. David Letterman did it a few nights ago.

It was apparently an accident. Should he fire himself?

[boston bean]

10. Ted Kennedy should be the first fired, he did it too, ya know. nt

[ProSense]

13. Idiocy! n/t

[Dogmudgeon]

12. Here is the comparison

They are slips of the tongue:

Obama ==> Osama

Chelsea Clinton ==> Pimp Out Chelsea Clinton

See, it's almost the same!

--p!

[ProSense]

14. Here is a better comparison:

Hillary's campaign is upset with David Shuster, but the Clintons are best friends with McCain

Bill Clinton: John McCain and Hillary are 'very close'

McCain and his blogger apparently agree: Chelsea Clinton is "ugly"

[Dogmudgeon]

15. McCain apologized -- in person.

Let David Shuster do so as well.

I'm sure they'll work it out without your efforts to "promote" Obama.

--p!

[ProSense]

16. Lame! n/t

[Dogmudgeon]

18. Actually, yes, I am.

I'm surprised that anyone, even someone infantile, would insult me based on my handicap.

Amazing.

Not all of the scum rises.

--p!

17. Obama is running for President. Chelsea is NOT. BIG DIFFERENCE, though that Osama shit is over the

line too and I said so at the time.
