What is funny is there is a movie comeing out designed to paint George W. Bush as a moron. Its called W (Dubya).

Dubya is used by the left to pove their point that dubya is a bumpkin.

but you cant say Hussain or the special procecutor will come get you.

And they're saying that John McCain was being racist when he called Obama "That one" the other night in the debate.

Offensive, well yeah -- but nothing racist about it.

I didn't even find it offensive, it was awkward to hear it. The sentence seemed... erratic.

Maybe they're trying to spin this into a remake of Perot's "you people" comment.

This clearly was not any where near as offensive.

Actually according to the article YOU posted he is being investigated under the Hatch Act.

For using his office to influence a political campaign.

I don't see a logical co-relation between that and the heading of your thread

(BTW its spelled Hussein)

I really don't care how its spelled.

So you read the article and didn't get that the sheriff is being investigated for illegally influencing a political campaign because he used the word "Hussain"

really?

That's what your saying?
