What would be really cool is if Obama were to leave office in discrace. Impeachment and or some scandle that renders his Presidency impotant. Then all of those schools and road would have the name changed. After all it seems that dems in the white house seem to have some sort of scandle that follows them. Either personal or official.

I am not aware of a specific one, but naming things after Obama began in the weeks after he took office, so obviously SOME people have been pushing for it. I was surprised to find myself crossing Barack Obama Parkway in Orlando only about a year after he came into office.
I would object just as strongly if the election had gone the other way and I found myself crossing Mitt Romney Parkway next year too. |

You're not pushing my buttons, LQQK. I don't care about what some blue icon spews about me on a forum, and I certainly don't take seriously his comments that I should be more concerned with softball and bowling than politics.

re: the odd placement of "I simply think it's a bad habit to get into. "
A leftover from an edit of something I had previously said, but changed my mind. Sorry if that seems confusing. |

And, tbr,
While I am not specifically aware of the group you are talking about, I draw a large distinction between naming things after a former President vs a current one. Again (I feel like I need to keep repeating myself here) - the specific former and specific current President are unimportant to me in drawing that distinction. If some group wants to go crazy trying to name shit after Obama once he's out of office, I have no objection. While he's in office? I have a big problem with that. |

"Your question to me presumes that I wish to somehow dictate to them what book(s) Barnes and Noble may use for this purpose. I do not. They can give them Mein Kampf if they want to - and I'll be equally pissed off. "
Was that not clear enough for you Ghost? |

His expression of distaste does not mean that he would outlaw such behavior. I think it distasteful, and idiotic, the obsession some people have with naming things after Ronald Reagan, but it is perfectly legal to do so... |
