Dude. It's the name on his drivers' license. How the heck is that dishonest? Not tracking... lol.

I'm concerned about substance over title. You want to pick an issue, this one is at the very BOTTOM of the importance barrel IMVHO.

A rose, by any other name, would smell as sweet...
lol, i agree completely that his name is completely irrelevant to the discussion.

his name only came up as a side thing between Breukelen advocaat and i, here is the post i refer to

"Breukelen advocaat -- There is nothing wrong with calling Barack Obama by the name "Barry", but he's not known by this in his public life today and it can be confusing. I would think that "Barry" is the name his wife, family and friends call him."

and my response

i call him that because that was his name until he entered politics.
to me, that makes it an affectation and vaguely dishonest.

my intent is also to be somewhat dismissive and derisive"

lol, i had no idea that would result in such a long discussion of his name.
