Karl Rove on Hussein

Rove:

“The context was, you’re not going to stigmatize this guy. You shouldn’t underestimate him,” one of the executive directors said. Rove said that the use of “Barack Hussein Obama” would perpetuate the notion that Republicans were bigoted and would hurt the party."

Hey! For once I actually agree with the guy!

The more conspiracy-minded might suggest that by making a big deal out of not using "Hussein", the RNC is actually manipulating the media into saying it over and over again while the RNC gets to pretend like it's backing away from it.
