I sang in a large choir this morning at the Richard Nixon presidential library's 9/11 commemoration ceremony. As we sat waiting for the hoopla to begin, the elderly woman next to me turned to me and remarked, appropos of nothing, "I hope you're not going to vote for Obama." I said "I am planning to vote for Obama. I'm a big fan."
With a straight face and total seriousness she said "Well, he's a Muslim, and he's been secretly sending all of the funds in America's treasury to Islamic nations. If he gets back in the White House, America will collapse."
No lies. That happened. Dear sweet lord....
