We Never Hear About John Sidney McCain III

February 27th, 2008, 11:45 AM EST

That’s because his middle name doesn’t push buttons. But Bill Cunningham, the Cincinnati radio host who embarrassed the McCain camp and was repudiated, thankfully, by the candidate, himself, had a “who, me”? attitude when asked why he continues to use Barack’s middle name. It is, after all, his actual middle name. How innocent. Except, Cunningham is also on record as calling him “Barack Mohammed Hussein Obama.” I confronted Cunningham on this and other statements he’s made on Tuesday night’s Hannity and Colmes. Ellen at Newshounds has the rundown, as does Jonathan Martin at Politico.

  1. Ha. Great job Alan. I see that Faux News actually lets you talk once in a while. This joke of a talk show host should be ashamed. How many times does he mention George Walker Bush. How many times does he mention John Sidney McCain. How many times does he mention Willard “Mitt” Romney. Great job calling him on his racist rants. These people do nothing but debase the political dialogue.

  2. Everybody on stage behind Cunningham looks like they’re at a wake, and Cunningham appears to be from the school of debate wherein the louder one yells the more persuasive one becomes.

    And he says he doesn’t believe Barack is a Manchurian Candidate after saying Barack is a Manchurian candidate.

    Yell a little louder next time.

  3. left of a bolshevik? jesus, that guy is an utter tool. his eyes are so close together he could get away with using a monocle.

  4. The first comment sums it all up. How many times did he use the middle names of non-Democrats? Cunningham is just an angry little man screaming and shaking his fist like a fool. Thank you, Alan, for calling out this grade-A baloney.

  5. Just look at that guy. I’m sure he was bullied mercilessly as a boy and that has shaped his political beliefs as an adult.

  6. Bottom line….Bill Cunningham is an idiot. Plain and simple.
