The stupid BURNS update: Teabagger offers PROOF that Obama’s a Muslim (photo with his shoes off)
Tea Partiers: Obama’s a Muslim because he takes his shoes off

President Obama's most vigorous opponents have gone to great lengths to paint him as a Muslim, despite all evidence to the contrary. At a recent event, a Tea Party organizer pushed those limits even further.

"In the yellow cinder-block meeting room of the Munford, TN, municipal building, the Tipton County Tea Party convened on a recent evening to raise money for billboards, organize a tax day protest and encourage attendance at a state convention planned for Gatlinburg at the end of May," the Washington Post reported in a recent feature story.

The 40-person-large gathering was treated by organizer Vince DiCello to jokes about House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and encouraged to raise money to help swing the November elections against Democrats.

DiCello then circulated a photograph that showed Obama with his shoes off, which WaPo reported that he deemed "evidence that the president prays with Muslims but not Christians."

The crowd "murmured in disapproval" at the image, and one attendee yelled, "That's because he is a Muslim."

4. I occasionally scratch my balls
Does that make me a 3rd base coach?

From the comments at Raw Story. If I'd said that, I'd have to admit more than occasional scratching.

16. I go barefoot in the kitchen all the time, but that does not make me pregnant
These people are insane and are getting dangerous.

To the tea partiers, quoting Sarah Palin, "Quit makin' stuff up!"

21. This is stupid do they shower with their shoes on? If not they must be Muslims. But also, who cares.
if he were. Being Muslim does not inhibit you from being an American.
