Just Heard B. Hussein O refer to jailed news-reporter Roxana Saberi as "Iranian-American" in a newscast hosted by Fox's Julia Banderas. So our new president think of American as hyphenated citizens.

Just Read Steelfish refer to Barack Obama as "B. Hussein O" in a FreeRepublic post. So our fellow Freeper thinks of Americans by only their middle names, with only first and last initials.

Odd. Do you also refer to "J. Sydney M" and "G. Walker B"? Just wondering.

Best bet is to refer to folks by the name(s) they prefer.

You missed the sarcasm in the post. Since he didn’t want his middle name used during the election, but then used it for taking the oath, it’ a way of now emphasizing his “Moslem” roots.
