I get the occasional e-mail from the far-right(..er...Queer As Folk..fans? or Dude, Where's My Car fans? anyway.. ) That is warning me that I am supporting a "Muslim"! "OMG!" They cry, don't you realize that you are supporting a Black...Muslim!?!
Well, what a shock to wake up to the realization that they...are...right!
I have been supporting a Black Muslim for some time now. And I can actually say he is one of my heroes. And believe me I was shocked to realize that it was true. I mean... I guess I knew it was true but I never really gave it much thought... or believed it was important... but it is. It truly is and I have to admit it to everyone here....
I support a Black man who is a Muslim...and I will continue to...
It's true... I am a fan of...
Muhammad Ali
I know... I know..... you ladies and gentlemen meant Barack Obama...
Now I know Barack's not a Muslim but I won't hold that against him.
He may not share a religion with Muhammad Ali.. but what he does share is a sense of respect for humanity, his courage, and his desire for all people to live in peace.
I like Barrack Obama... I am voting for him.
I love Muhammad Ali

I hope you're right and that Palin gets impeached as governor too.
I know a lot of the right is still claiming Obama is a Muslim, but I mentioned that to my 75 year old grandmother (a life-long, hardcore republican and Catholic) and she snapped "Those people don't know what they're talking about! He's a Christian and I believe it!" I think she's secretly planning to vote for Obama but just won't admit it.
Also for funsies, a spoilered picture of me imposing on your privacy at the Obama rally. Thanks, by the way.
