Sen. Barack Obama has a new tag: "Renegade".That's what Secret Service agents are calling the Illinois Democrat, in the time-honored tradition of giving "secret" code names to presidential candidates and other protected dignitaries. As is custom, the Obama moniker reflects something of the man himself (though he might prefer "progressive" or "independent").
That is so cool!!!
Man he lucked out! He could have had a really stupid nickname (I would probably have called him "Bam-Bam", isn't he lucky I am not in charge of Secret Service nicknames.)
And it is way better then "Eagle" for Bill Clinton, or "Evergreen" for Hillary, or "Minuteman" for Kerry (I wonder if his wife came up with that one), or "Tumbler" for George W. Bush, or "Deacon" for Jimmy Carter, or "Sawhorse" for Al Gore, however Reagan's nickname of "Rawhide" is pretty damn cool as well. And George H.W. Bush's nickname of "Timberwolf" isn't bad either. (Really? "Timberwolf"?)
I bet some of those others would not have minded being called "Bam-Bam"!
Bam Bam is not bad....but you are right what a cool name....I think it also shows the SS men respect him....it is a compliment of the highest order....
