Fair and Balanced My Ass!

William Henry Harrison,  Franklin Delano Roosevelt, William Howard Taft

There are few things more presidential than a middle name.

Even if the President doesn't use his middle name, we at least know his middle initial – Ulysses S. Grant, John F. Kennedy, James K. Polk, George W. Bush.

So to my surprise, this past week as I'm watching Fox News, I hear them repeatedly reference the Democratic candidate as Barack Hussein Obama. The election isn't for a few weeks, and whoever wins won't become President until January 20th. Yet, Fox News, purported to be “Fair and Balanced” is already giving Obama the Presidential treatment by calling him by his first, middle and last names at every possible opportunity. Barack Hussein Obama.

You might be asking yourself, why is this unfair?
Well, do any of you know John McCain's middle name? Or at least the initial?
I confess that I didn't. I had to go to Wikipedia and I discovered it's Sidney.
John Sidney McCain. Has a nice ring to it, no?

So my proposal to fight back against the elitist liberal media:

Every time we mention McCain's name in the future, we promise to use his first, middle and last names. John Sidney McCain.
Examples:
1) Did you know John Sidney McCain used to be against overturning Roe v. Wade before he was for it?
2) One of John Sidney McCain's close personal friends and contributors, Charles Keating, was responsible for duping thousands out of their life savings, costing the federal government $3 billion and ultimately sentenced to 12 1/2 years in prison.

Let's stop these Fox News elitist Ivy-League liberals: O'Reilly (Harvard), Ann Coulter (Cornell), Geraldo (Penn and Columbia) and show them that first, we don't need to go to your fancy schools and second, it's ok to graduate in the bottom one-half of one percent (894th out of 899) as John Sidney McCain did.

Who's with me? Who's bloody with me?!

And Colbert does this on a nightly basis? damn
