Why not also give the audio of Kennedy with his Osama/Obama mistake?

Ashcroft gets booed but Kennedy does the same thing and they only give polite titters. Talk about Bigotry of the Press.

Obama - Osama - the only difference is “BS”.

I can think of a lot of things for which Ashcroft deserves to be booed. This one is nothing to get excited about. Were these “the media” representatives booing him? He should have cleared the room of anyone who expressed an opinion about anything he said.

Teddy just can’t help it. He gave us the home run kings “Mike McGuire and Sammy Soser”, too. Unlike Teddy, Ashcroft happense to be sober and semi -literate and -competent.

I have a feeling that we will see that more than once in the upcoming campaign. Some 527 will surely use that one I’d think!

Seriously, if Ashcroft had done his spadework this wouldn’t have happened.

I did some home repair for a 93 year old woman today and she was calling Obama ——— Osoma. She’s a Hillary voter who will sit out November if Obama is running

ROFL!

Now that there’s tag line material.

Ashcroft is a good and decent man, who was mistreated by the media to no end. The problem is Obama’s name. It is too easy to mistake it. The funny thing is, the media (and the left in general) damages Obama by playing up these stories.

Isn’t Obama the swahili version of Osama. Have to ask my friend who speaks both Arabic and Swahili.

That's the best tagline I have seen in awhile!!

If you're not going to use it, may I?

My first thought exactly.
Ashcroft admitted his mistake, quickly apologized, and then completed his thought.
And now I hope he is done apologizing to those scumbags.

Osama/Obama should have stuck with “Barry.”

Didn’t CNN show a graphic of Osama with the words “Where’s Obama? That was funny. I wonder how or if they’re reporting Mr. Ashcroft’s flub.
