Exchange between Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill) and William Dean Singleton, chairman of the board of the ASSOCIATED PRESS at the AP annual meeting in Washington DC:
Singleton: Obama bin Laden is still at large.
Obama: I think that was Osama bin Laden. (audience laughter, delayed applause)
Singleton: If I did that, I'm so sorry.
Obama: No, no, no. this is part of the exercise that I've been going through over the last 15 months, which is why it's pretty impressive that I'm still standing. (applause)

Do a Google search on “osama obama” and you’ll see than a lot of people have mixed them up, but only conservatives are criticized for it.
It’d be easier to just call him Hussein.
It’s actually not that much of a stretch. Obama’s whole tribe are Muslims, and his cousin and political ally Odinga the Muslim terrorist has connections with al Qaeda.
So many comments so uncalled for.

Wow, it must have been hard to get so many inaccuracies into one sentence.
1. Obama is a member of the Luo tribe. The "whole tribe" are NOT Muslims. In fact, the Luo are overwhelmingly Christian. Obama's grandfather converted to Islam, which was an extremely unusual thing to happen.
2. Obama's "cousin and political ally" Odinga is not a "Muslim terrorist," being neither Muslim nor a terrorist. Rather, he is an Anglican and a tinpot demagogue.
Wonder how Bin Laden feels about this?
Yeah, well....you seen one Muslim, . . . . . !
Ya ever notice how you never see both of those guys together? Maybe the beard is a fake!

It’s ok to call him osama, but call him hussien....watch out!
It’s Teddy’s fault lol
Today, Barack Obama had to apologize to himself when he referred to “Obama bin Laden”, before correcting it to “Osama bin Laden”.
No word if Obama was willing to offer an apology to Osama for the mix-up.
Yes, this is serious.
What do you think of Raila Odinga’s support for the imposition of sharia in Kenya?
