A new PPP survey of Southern GOP voter opinions ahead of the next round of primaries is raising a few eyebrows. Yes, a staggering number are "unsure" about whether or not President Obama is a "Christian."
More depressing still, Benjy Sarlin notes something else they are "unsure" about:
"Interracial marriage laws were overturned by the Supreme Court in 1967, but a significant minority of Mississippi and Alabama apparently still long for their return, or are at least ambivalent about the idea. In Alabama, 67 percent of respondents said interracial marriage should be allowed, but 21 percent said it should be illegal and another 12 percent were not sure. Mississippi Republican voters were even more divided: Only 52 percent said such marriages should be legal, versus 29 percent who said they should be banned and 17 percent who were unsure."
One more time, it's 2012... not 1812. We are "unsure" if some of these folks have factored that into their thinking.

UPDATE: THE DEEPLY MOVING PHOTO I CELEBRATE HERE WAS TAKEN BY NEVINE ZAKI
As we all watch the ongoing Egyptian struggle, which continues to provoke both hope and terrible fear here in The West, I proudly pass along this photo. Perhaps out of solidarity with the Muslims who formed human shields to protect Copts in December and very early January from continued extremist violence... perhaps out of simple decency... Egyptian Christians joined Muslims in Tahrir square earlier and made a barrier to protect afternoon prayers to Mecca from the violence and tyranny of the Mubarak Regime.

The Year's Best Satire... Seriously

When Keith Olbermann took on the "Obama is a secret Muslim" crowd, the piece was as hilarious as it was acerbic. Enjoy.
