I remember an old Eddie Murphy routine where he played the first black USian president, running back and forth to avoid the rifle touting rednecks. Well, a short time ago the head of the Arkansas Demos was shot by a deranged pickup driving redneck. Today, a couple more deranged rednecks were ready to shoot Obama for daring to run in the election.

I think there genuinely are people who are convinced that Obama really is a Muslim extremist infiltrator bent on turning the US into an Islamic theocracy, and consequently they see assassinating him as a patriotic duty.

(Personally, if I were going to get a Muslim infiltrator elected president, I'd pick a white guy whose middle name isn't Hussein, but nobody ever asks my opinion...)
