"His name is Barrack HUSSEIN!!!!! Obama. He's one of them goddamn Islams!"
"Is he a Muslim? I dunno. Does he have a birth certificate? I dunno, I'm just asking questions!"
"Barrack HUSSEIN!!!!!!! Obama has plunged this nation into pants-shitting, dear-Lord-God-Almighty-I-hope-I-don't-have-to-sell-my-kidney-to-buy-porn debt!"
Okay. Maybe they didn't *actually* say those things outright, but let's be honest, you know what I'm talking about. What will Barry O have to do to prove to people that he was born in America and is not a Muslim (not that that's a problem)? He's going to have to build a Star Gate-like contraption and go back in time to the exact moment of his birth (in America) and his baptism, and, while leaving the portal open, have these two events broadcasted on EVERY news channel in the country in order to convince the ignorant, white-trash, racists that they're wrong! But even then, Glenn Beck would heroically swoop down and save the day, convincing them that what they've witnessed is a conspiracy propagated by secular-humanist, liberal, progressive, American-hating, Islamic Communo-Fascists and that he alone, as their political savior, knows the "true path!"
Hold on one second...lemme check something.

Let me be clear: I'm by no means a progressive. Here's my Political Compass score in case this is unbelievable.
(available at http://www.politicalcompass.org/)
I don't have a dog in the dumb Birther or Islamic fight. I honestly don't care either way. I'm just sick and damn tired of Tea Partiers and pseudo-libertarians ignorant and racist views lumped in with mine. I support small government. I support self-sufficiency. I support civic action. But I don't support Bible-thumping, poorly educated, right wingers who think Armageddon is coming because we elected a person who *has* been well cultured, actually *has* a degree, and (most importantly) has a different skin color!
The next post will be (slightly) more academic.
Until next time,
