OMFG! my Liberal friend just told me that Obama was a muslin!

[trof]

"Hold on there", I said.
"You mean Obama is most typically a closely-woven unbleached or white cloth, produced from corded cotton yarn? Sometimes called 'sheeting'?
I just don't see a black guy running around in 'sheeting'.
How could that be?"

He said it must be true because he got the info in an email.
I guess I can't argue with that.

1. Yeah, but what's his thread count?

[rateyes]

2. I wonder, then, if he can be "bought"

at a white sale? :D

3. How's that cash transfer from Nigeria coming along for him?

4. Someone tried to tell me that yesterday too...

And I corrected her very nicely, and said that I basically do not like any of the political candidates this year at all. But, that being said, I do not want people lying about them either. I've actually corrected people about Mitt Romney too. I'm just a big honesty girl.

6. I heard it once on Thursday and again yesterday.

The Muslim email must be making it's rounds since the big win in Iowa.

I had one of my seniors in a painting class I teach bring it up, and a fellow Democrat said it yesterday while we were sharing lunch. I set both of them straight, but this stuff is out there and it's pretty sad. The fear card surely has worked in this country.

5. a student of mine this past quarter told me that as well...

it's a great piece of righty grapevine talk.
-or-
just how interested americans are in fact checking


so i sent her three different references on all candidates religious affiliations.

7. Same story here. Hear it or receive emails and try to correct the

story.

Somehow, this stuff is too explosive for GD-P. Seems like a head in sand stance. ???
