Can I call McCain Sidney?

I mean, I see lots of people who I presume are Republican supporters of John S. McCain using Barak Obama's middle name of Hussein instead. I don't see any good reason to do that. Mr. Obama like most people does not prefer to be referred to by his middle name but rather by his first name like the vast majority of folks.

So how about it, Sidney McCain. All hail Sidney!

    People who make a point of using Obama's middle name are doing it to incite some kind of division... these people always use the name as a sneer and a form of ridicule and then HIDE behind the same excuse "what... that's his name... what did I do wrong?"

    These people are cowards. Admit your hatred and your prejudice or shut up.... but don't act like we are stupid. I am not afraid of hatred but I can't stand a coward. We still see that the people who do this are essentially cowards.

    Neither candidate's middle name is necessary to use.

    Yes, I call Obama Hussein because I see nothing wrong with his name at all. Plus I'm voting for him in November

    I prefer not to call him anything & just ignore him til he disappears like a plant you forget to water. Yes, you can call him anything you want but I urge you to put your energy into what you want in life not what you don't want..when we do that what we wants grows (in votes).EDIT: ha, ha, I just saw Quantum leaps answer & that is fun to talk about Sydney I am all aboard now.
