Americans Think Mitt Romney is a Muslim: "Republican Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney isn’t shy about changing his positions and former decision-making according to the current (and I mean minutes-by-minutes) political climate. But if there’s one area in which Mitt Romney cannot shift into different forms of political department store mannequins, it’s his faith.
Never mind that we live in a democracy and are supposed to adhere to that little thingy called the bill of rights, where “no religious test shall be imposed on individuals seeking elected office,” Americans are too busy watching washed up stars gyrate and they love them some judgmental religion. Also, it really helps if one holding or seeking office can be so eclectic as to be white and Christian in order for the superficiality to sit well with a miserably uninformed (misinformed) electorate. For example, forty-percent of Americans don’t even know Obama is a Christian, and then there’s the tin-foil cap wearing eighteen-percent of Americans who believe Obama to be Muslim (or is it half-breed Muslin?). He’s black and has a last name that’s one letter away from the evil 9/11 terrorist and radical Muslim fundamentalist (the one Obama actually caught and killed), so it’s only natural that this would make some Americans heads hurt..."

"Any health care funding plan that is just, equitable, civilized and humane must - must - redistribute wealth from the richer among us to the poorer and the less fortunate. Excellent healthcare is by definition re-distributional."
