Over the past few weeks, we’ve heard a lot of talk about Obama’s religion. Is he a Muslim, is he a Christian, or is he a practicing  (George)Bush-Doctor from the jungles of Kenya. But what we haven’t heard mentioned is that this question is already settled by the United States Constitution that states no religion test is required for office.

President Barack Obama

Where’s all the patriotic Constitution loving right wingers now. Have I lost anyone yet? Are you still there reading? Okay, continuing…

Article 6 of the Constitution states:

“The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.”

So is that the point where the right wingers tune out? Is this where you “change channel” and switch to Rush Limbaugh or Glenn Beck for reinforcement, for reassurance as to why you should continue questioning President Obama’s religion? So now your pocket size Constitution is irrelevant?

OMG! OMG! OMG!

Now I've always supported this president. And whenever necessary, I've tried to point out the idiots in the Republican party, like John Boehner, Mitch McConnell, John McCain, Sarah Palin and the other members of the Republican Senate and House.

GOP thinks he's an Ice Cream eating Muslim

But sometimes idiots say or do something brilliant, and over the life of Obama's presidency, the Republicans have pushed the theory that Mr. Obama is a secret Muslim. And now, for the first time, there seems to be some evidence that these fools are on to something brilliant.

Thanks to the research of Keith Olbermann, we now have video proof that President Obama is a Muslim and this is based on the most obvious, in your face evidence we've never seen.

Mr. Olbermann shows us the kinds of connection between the President's everyday life and those in the Muslim world, like his frequent Church attendance as opposed to a Mosque, his marriage to 1 woman as opposed to many like practiced by Muslims, and even his basketball playing and it's connection to Mecca. These are connections Glenn Beck should have picked up, but haven't yet, but then, it's still early in Obama's presidency.

"Black guys use it all the time. Turn on HBO and listen to a black comic, and all you hear is n****, n*****, n*****. I don't get it. If anybody without enough melanin says it, it's a horrible thing. But when black people say it, it's affectionate. It's very confusing."

Dr. Laura Schlessinger

These are the careless spoken words of Dr. Laura Schlessinger. They were said and repeated by the radio talk-show host on Tuesday, when a caller called into her broadcast seeking advice. The caller, a black woman is married to a white man and began expressing her frustrations over certain words her husband and his family and friends use in her presence.

The caller expected the well respected Dr. Laura - who holds a Ph.D. in physiology from Columbia University's College of Physicians and Surgeons - to offer some “no-nonsense advice infused with a strong sense of ethics, accountability, and personal responsibility.” Instead, the caller was spoken to in a demeaning manner by the doctor who used the “N” word a total of 11 times in 5 minutes.
