Arlington TN Mayor blames ‘Muslim’ Obama for pre-empting "A Charlie Brown Christmas"

[Amerigo Vespucci]

The mayor of Arlington, Tennessee, believes he knows exactly why President Barack Obama chose last Tuesday night to announce his Afghanistan troop surge: It was a nefarious plot by the "Muslim" president to pre-empt that night's broadcast of A Charlie Brown Christmas.

Russell Wiseman, mayor of Memphis suburb Arlington, suggested in a Facebook posting that Obama wanted to obscure the traditional Christmas TV special's Christian message. And in what the Memphis Commercial Appeal described as "an extensive thread that attacked the president," Wiseman also said that Obama supporters "need to move to a Muslim country ... oh wait, that's America ... pitiful."

This is how the Commercial Appeal transcribed Wiseman's Facebook posting, which is accessible only to the mayor's Facebook friends:

Ok, so, this is total crap, we sit the kids down to watch 'The Charlie Brown Christmas Special' and our muslim (sic) president is there, what a load ... try to convince me that wasn't done on purpose. Ask the man if he believes that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and he will give you a 10 minute disertation about it....when the answer should simply be 'yes'....

And in a statement that will inevitably be interpreted as a declaration of either a class war or a racial war, Wiseman went on to lament the fact that Americans who don't own property are allowed to vote.

1. K&R to expose the insane in the brain

5. Having to live among the likes of this insane Christo-fascist is punishment enough

to atone for all one's sins. :D

2. Obama interrupted The Gospel According To Linus?

That's pretty pathetic for an attack.

He couldn't come up with a better one?

3. None of that made sense, in fact it was the opposite of sense.

If Obama ate a bacon sandwich in a Rolls Royce...
the Repubs would accuse him of being a secret muslin socialist.

4. They never disappoint.

When you think they can't be any more stupid, they come up with something like this.

Pssst Russ, not believing that JC is the son of God doesn't make someone a Muslim. It indicates that you belong to three fourths of the world's population.

6. That was a mad rush of stupid.

7. Does he believe that shit or is he just throwing red meat to the extremist base?

Sincerely, I don't know which of the two alternatives is worse.

[peekaloo]

8. Good grief! All he got was a crock. The humanity!

Too bad the President didn't interrupt that shitty 'Scrubs' premiere while he was at it.

9. I hope he leaves his brain to science

there is something seriously wrong there
