A dem in the same interview (this morning) called him Osama Bin Laden.

Has anyone else noted this?


I'm wondering if this could this be a new Republican "talking" point, meant to point up that Obama is also a muslim name?

1. Republicans would be wise to shut up about it.
Obama put an end to Osama.

Obama - 1
GOP -0

3. It is possible that it was a mistake. Even good Democrats do it:

5. I think that you are being overly sensitive.
After all, the man's name was Osama.

You're losing your funding anyway NPR. Might as well quit kissing the right wing ass.
