		<description><![CDATA[It's become a mantra for the radical right: <i>Barack Hussein Obama</i>.  The movie you see below deals with this ridiculous name bashing rather well, I think.  The idea is this: If people are going to engage in the religiously bigoted and racist attack that Barack Obama can't be President because his middle name is Hussein, well then, <b>my</b> middle name is Hussein too.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Barack Obama, as the frontrunner in the presidential election of 2008, has attracted more than his share of nasty attacks.  Republicans are becoming desperate.  Unable to attack Barack Obama&#8217;s politics or qualifications, which are both strong, they&#8217;re going after superficial nonsense&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230;like Barack Obama&#8217;s middle name.  They&#8217;re actually attacking Barack Obama for the middle name that his parents chose to give him, as if that has anything to do with Obama himself.  </p>
<p>It&#8217;s become a mantra for the radical right: <i>Barack Hussein Obama</i>.  The movie you see below deals with this ridiculous name bashing rather well, I think.  The idea is this: If people are going to engage in the religiously bigoted and racist attack that Barack Obama can&#8217;t be President because his middle name is Hussein, well then, <b>my</b> middle name is Hussein too.</p>
<p>Think of it as the <i>&#8220;I am Spartacus&#8221;</i> of the 2008 election.  They&#8217;ve put it on a bumper sticker too, which you&#8217;ll see in this video.</p>
