Gee Bear. You better get your facts straight before you post this carp. Cong. Keith Ellison of Minnesota was sworn in with the Koran, not Obama. The Koran he used was once owned by Thomas Jefferson. Oh well, all those black politicians look alike to you, right?

Note the source: Halifax Herald - not even an US newspaper. I think you missed the point of the cartoon Bear - poking fun at Americans who really believe that drivel, not at Obama. The cartoon is pointed at you Bear.

What's scary to me is that facts make no difference to a public who reads no newspaper, watches no news shows or in-depth analyses. AND listens to idiots like Rush and Bill O'R. They get their "facts" from some websites and talk radio.
When I was on the city council, one of our members was on the road a lot selling auto parts. He listened to talk radio (Rush etc.) and would come into public council meetings spewing such garbage that even the rightwingers on the council looked at him in disbelief.
