It's pretty obvious to me why the "Hussein" was put in the thread title.

One popular political smear tactic is to state an objective and unequivocal truth that has no consequence whatsoever, unless the reader (usually the other side) implies a second meaning that might be offensive. In this case, the poster can claim Hussein is just the middle name, so any implications regarding Saddam/Muslim background/whatever can be held against the defensive reader. ("I didn't say that, YOU did...")
