Why are we still having this conversation?
...
...
For a couple of reasons.
Some people still believe he's a Muslim. (Idiots, in my book)
Some people don't know but trust people who say it. (Clue-challenged, short attention spanned lemmings, in my book)
Some people know he's not but benefit in some way from having this as part of the conversation. (Varies--cynics, shit stirrers, opponents, headline "news" producers, etc)
That we're having this conversation **at all** is a sad waste of time and energy. I don't like playing with feces, flinging it or cleaning it up. But I do what I feel I must do to make the places I inhabit better. In this case, I propel this shit story one more post in an effort to refute it, to dry it up, to wither it with the shining light of truth (OBAMA IS A CHRISTIAN, NOT A MUSLIM).
Those others who keep it alive for the offensive purpose of political opposition are wetting their pants with glee that we're here arguing about the fucking percentages of idiots who parrot this thinly disguised intolerance. "One-third", "No, 13%", "Down from 16%", etc etc etc. :retch: With each answering call carrying the screaming headline Obama is a Muslim. FFS.
