Our first Muslim President?

Remember how during the Presidential campaign Obama's people repeatedly said all the internet talk about Obama being a Muslim was ridiculous? Did you hear about Obama appearing on Arab TV this past Tuesday?

He told the Muslim world that one of his main tasks was to communicate that "the Americans are not your enemy." He talked about his own background and his Muslim relatives. Hamas is deciding they like him -- "In the last couple of days, there have been a lot of statements [from Obama], some of them very positive," said Ahmed Youssef, a senior Hamas official.

We better watch him -- I'm afraid he may be a stealth Muslim! (By the way, this story was buried on page 13 of the newspaper. Wonder why it didn't make page 1?)

Paris News funny for the day: In a recent obituary, the newspaper reported that "Mrs. X was preceded in death by her only son, Bob, one of the greatest joys of her life." They really should watch those misplaced modifiers!
