Reply to: Re: Barry by Bear
Actually, I remembered after I made my post that I'd heard that his mother used to call him Barry, so I think you're right. I don't think he uses it now, though. It may not entirely be an insult, but whenever I go on Yahoo Answers to the Elections section, the same people who use Obummer and Oblunder use Barry, plus you can tell from the context that they mean Barry as an insult. Nobody there who approves of him ever calls him Barry.

Of course, Barry pales in comparison to the ones who make it a point to type Barack HUSSEIN Obama or call him just Hussein. I especially hate that one because it's such an insult to the intelligence of anyone who reads it.

Because this message is archived you cannot respond to it.
