What does Sen.Ted Kennedy think of this?
Reader comment on item: Obama's Connection to Sirhan Sirhan
in response to reader comment: obama ties to radical muslims
Submitted by M.D'Souza (United States), Nov 4, 2008 at 19:04
Early on, while Sen.Obama was still a presidential candidate (among the many other Democrats), Sen. Ted Kennedy did confuse Obama's name with Osama! It became a big joke among the talk radio hosts.
It was perhaps Sen.Kennedy's brain tumor that got the names confused, or perhaps got the facts right!
