edrogers41.jpg Ed Rogers, is one of these wingnuts (a Lee Atwater man) that MSNBC constantly puts on the air and allows him to relentlessly smear people. I think Dan Abrams needs to hear about this one. On Hardball today, the topic was the 2008 possible Democratic nominees for president. When Obama'a name came up---this is how he Eddie described him.

Shuster: Barack Obama is going up to New Hampshire. He's somebody I imagine Republicans should be fearful of---he's a great speaker...

Ed Rogers: Count me down as somebody who underestimates Barack "Hussein" Obama. Please,...

Yes Ed, he does have a deep voice. Conservatives can call Democrats torturing murderers all day long on TV and never pay a price for it.

Update: Yes it is his middle name, but Rogers emphasised "Hussein" in the clip so that he could highlight Saddam in my opinion and if you think not, then you've never seen Ed in action. I should have been clearer in my post.
