You go right on ahead and plead ignorance, but the Republcans are trying to smear Obama in any way possible,

People smear George W. Bush in lots of illegitimate ways as well. But that doesn't mean that everyone who attacks Bush is an idiot. It's just the nasty way politics works. The use of Obama's middle name doesn't mean there's an official Republican strategy, some dark conspiracy, or a specific intent to mislead people by specifically mentioning his middle name. The few people I've heard talk about Obama's name have doen so because they believe it is a legitimate issue (I believe they're being illogical and silly, but that's their belief). You have no proof of anything other than misspeach, stupidity, and nastiness.

And the "Osama" thing is the most ridiculous part of your conspiracy theory. It's so far-fetched that its not worth even talking about any further. Nobody would use that as a deliberate strategy to affect dumb "joe-six-packs." Might as well believe that Obama's parents were the key planners of your conspiracy if that's the case (they gave him his name). Heh, and that Ted Kennedy was the willing point man (for the most memorable audio clip).
