"We are all Hussein..."

From the NYT: A bunch of Obama supporters have started taking his middle name as their own. “I am sick of Republicans pronouncing Barack Obama’s name like it was some sort of cuss word,” says Jeff 'Hussein' Strabone, of Brooklyn in a manifesto titled We Are All Hussein.

He is joined by Jaime 'Hussein' Alvarez of Washington, D.C., Kelly 'Hussein' Crowley of Norman, Okla., Sarah Beth 'Hussein' Frumkin of Chicago, Dan 'Hussein' O’Maley of Washington, D.C., Alex 'Hussein' Enderle of Columbus, Ohio, and Ashley 'Hussein' Holmes of Indianapolis.

“People would not listen to what you were saying on the phone or on their doorstep because they thought he was Muslim,” says Emily Hussein Nordling, a 19 year old student from Fort Thomas, Kentucky.

Mark 'Hussein' Elrod, a political science professor at Harding University in Searcy, Arkansas, is organizing students to declare their Husseinhood on Facebook on Aug. 4, Obama’s birthday.

I can't see this working in the UK, if only because David Cameron has two middle names — William and Donald — while Gordon Brown's middle name is, in fact, Gordon. His Christian name is James. And where will the floating voters go? Gordon or Donald? It smacks too much of drunken tattoos.
