HALP

There are people who steadfastly and in the face of all evidence believe that Obama is a Muslim, that he took his oath of office on the Koran, even that he might be the Antichrist. There’s fucking “Obama is the Antichrist” paraphernalia for sale on Cafepress. No, I won’t link to it.

We’re trapped in the country with these people, like being shut in a bomb shelter with five cases of canned beans and a paranoid schizophrenic who believes beans are out to get him.

When I called some voters in Nevada on Sunday (to identify undecided voters for the campaign), one of them said “Oh I don’t know, is he a Muslim or…” and when I politely explained that he’s a church-going Christian, she made a kind of “hmph” that indicated she didn’t believe me but didn’t want to argue. So in preparation for next time, I am now conducting the humiliating thought process of how, in Dale Carnegie style, to tell someone that Barack Obama is a Christian without ending the conversation by implying they were ever in the wrong or that I am a devil-tongued liar.
