Obama...Osama...CNN Gets it Wrong

From Hot Air, it seems that even CNN can't figure out if it is Obama or Osama. It seems us on the right side of the aisle aren't the only ones to mistake Obama for Osama. Ted Kennedy did the same on January 11th 2005 when he said:
There you go. Why don't we just ask Osama bin Laden? Uh, Osama Obama! (giggles) Obama what is -- since he won by such a big amount.
Then they tried to say Rush Limbaugh called him that before anyone else did in an effort to stir up resentment or poke fun at. Mr. Andrew Greeley wrote an article December 8th in the Chicago Sun-Times saying:
Bloggers, radio talk show hosts like the poisonous Rush Limbaugh who calls the Senator Osama Obama

But the truth is, Ted Kennedy, is the one that messed it first. Maybe a little too many drinks there Teddy. The main point here is that his name sounds a lot like somebody else's name, who isn't exactly popular with this country and he is going to have to deal with it. Not to mention the fact that CNN ran this graphic and nobody said a single word. Luckily Hot Air picked it up.
