Hey fool...You picked an argument over this post by me. ....Alex...Me thinks hussein obama has the bankers working overtime printing paper dollars and selling paper gold. :-)"... Message 25363316 You said I am showing my true colors. I was giving my thoughts about gold and currency and you decided you didn't like it or you recall the days when I think you showed happiness about 9/11 and my objection to you. Note the happy face after my original statement. Now take your putrid thoughts to others who may enjoy your foolishness. You have no idea what real color I am. I think though you are correct about the Hutch thing...sorry about that. Here fool>>> Barack is a Semitic word meaning "to bless" as a verb or "blessing" as a noun. In its Hebrew form, barak, it is found all through the Bible. It first occurs in Genesis 1:22: "And God blessed (?are?? ) them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth." Now let us take the name "Hussein." It is from the Semitic word, hasan, meaning "good" or "handsome." Husayn is the diminutive, affectionate form. Gen. Omar Bradley, who bore a Semitic, Muslim first name, and shared it with the second Caliph of Sunni Islam, was the hero of D-Day and Normandy, of the Battle of the Bulge and the Ruhr. What about other American heroes, such as Gen. George Joulwan, former NATO Supreme Allied Commander of Europe? "Joulwan" is an Arabic name. Or there is Gen. John Abizaid, former CENTCOM commander. Abizaid is an Arabic name. Abi means Abu or "father of," and Zaid is a common Arab first name. Is Cunningham good enough to wipe their shoes? What about Congressman Darrell Issa of California? ("`Isa" means Jesus in Arabic). Former cabinet secretary Donna Shalala? (Shalala means "waterfall" in Arabic). Let us take Benjamin Franklin. His first name is from the Hebrew Bin Yamin, the son of the Right (hand), or son of strength, or the son of the South (yamin or right has lots of connotations). The "Bin" means "son of," just as in modern colloquial Arabic. Bin Yamin Franklin is not a dishonorable name because of its Semitic root. By the way, there are lots of Muslims named Bin Yamin.
