Don't Think of a Terrorist

Bob Kerrey is the latest Clinton surrogate to raise the "Obama is a muslim" canard, with the requisite "I know he's not but others might think he is and even if he is even though he says he's not it might be a good thing cause not all of them are terrorists but that would be ok too go ahead and take a chance."

Of course it's a compliment. Misleading, prone to if not intentionally but still forcefully perpetuate a fear among some of foreigners in general and Muslims in particular, but not really meant to discredit him.

Please tell me they are not doing this on purpose.

Are they reading too much of that damn George Lakoff?
