CNN "humor": Obama part of Axis of Evil

A hearty WTF to Jeff Greenfield and Wolf Blitzer at CNN who produced this inane (and apparently humorously intended) report on Barack Obama's attire--a suitcoat without a tie, which Greenfield says puts the Illinois senator in league with Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad:
GREENFIELD: Now, it is one thing to have a last name that sounds like Osama and a middle name, Hussein, that is probably less than helpful. But an outfit that reminds people of a charter member of the axis of evil, why, this could leave his presidential hopes hanging by a thread. Or is that threads? -- Wolf.
