That is unfortunate. Although it does give me hope that Obama can get elected despite his name.

Yes, it is. You see, some people have last names that sound familiar to something. Like Steve Crass would rhyme with Steve Crass minus the c and r. Familiar enough? Or would you prefer to get explained again how you can look for similarity in anything. Whooooooosh, you´re not even playing if you don´t block. Back to the drawing board.

Yeah, but that doesn't mean he's a Taliban or anything.
Such a word may be derived from TLB or LBN, no way to tell w/o a dictionary.
But many good things are derived from the same root as Taliban. Like Talib: "student"

As I understand it Taliban is the word for student. Put the i on the end and it probably is plural. So it would mean his name is the same as "Students" in English.
The Taliban of Afghanistan called themselves students of Islam, hence the name. It looks like they learned more than the Qoran.

Well yeah! LOL, stop making me laugh! We Americans think so much is funny, so why can't the rest of the world laugh with us?
