'Dems' I can do without.

"She went on about Obama's middle name, about the horrors of having a "Muslim president," even referring to the school Obama's stepfather has placed him in.

I asked her about the Rev. Wright issue, and didn't that at least prove that Obama was a Christian. She said something about "you got to do what you got to do," as if Obama had been planning for the last 20 years to run for president, and how having a "Christian background" would help his run..."

If this Dem primary has no other net positive, history will show that it was the moment when formerly-closeted-bigots were purged from our party, and replaced with formerly-independent, formerly-apathetic patriots.

1. Ugh! What about the horrors of having ANY religious president?
Maybe someday I'll see an atheist presidency.

2. Kind of funny. Like on inauguration day he's gonna declare himself Ayatollah Hussein Obama
....and replace the constitution with Sharia law.

Small minded people come up with some of the most unintentionally hilarious bullshit.
