Please help me start a rumor
Say this to 3 to 5 people today:

“You know, we haven’t had a president whose middle name is ‘Hussein’ since Thomas Jefferson.”

Thomas Jefferson didn’t have a middle name. But who knows that? I’ll bet that, if we work together, we could convince 15% of the American public that Thomas Jefferson’s full name was “Thomas Hussein Jefferson.”

Why do it? Isn’t the idea of screwing with the heads of history-illiterate Americans reason enough?

3. I recall
from my Navy Days a long, long time ago, the word was if you did not hear a rumor by noon you were supposed to start one.

Rush H Limbaugh?? I didn't know his middle name was Hussein. And he's beating the hell out of Obama when it comes to maintaining the sanctity of marriage. He's done it with (at least) three women (and no telling how many men) and freaking Obama is still on wife number one.
