Cashing my spell check

Today I had to tell my web browser to "Learn Spelling" of the words "Barack" and "Obama" so that they wouldn't show up as misspelled words. Microsoft Word, however, does not mark them as unrecognized words. They must have been included in some software update. Good for you, Microsoft Word! You've done it again.

"Hussein," on the other hand, was already in the browser dictionary, but "Saddam" was not, which is curious. Once again, Word recognized both.
