Most of the questions we get e-mailed to us are in fact, Good Questions. But this morning, I got two in a row that were unbelievably idiotic.
"Where does Obamas campaign money come from, most black people are not that rich or is it coming from the middle eastern forces which are very anonymous? Also why is the media so scraced to say anything bad about him? He cannot be a perfect person."
My response to Gary:
This question is so ridiculous I don't even know where to begin.
Here's a list of all his donors, and guess what? There's many white people on this list!
And what does Barack Obama have to do with Middle Eastern forces? Bizarre.
The media isn't afraid to say anything bad about him, in fact there's been much coverage of his links to a Chicago Developer who's been indicted, And his controversial former pastor.
Then I got this one (and this comes in quite a bit):
I have been hearing a lot about barack obama and how he will absolutely not salute an american flag, and i was trying to remember if i have ever saw him salute it,i have not. i was wondering if this was true?
No, it is not true. There is one photo out there of Barack Obama, during the National Anthem, without his hand over his heart. Here are several other photos of Obama properly saluting the flag. Have you ever not put your hand over your heart? Were you making a statement?
Also worth noting: Obama is not a radical Muslim.
