Despicable Lies
I'm a little bit shocked to see op-ed pieces appear in quick succession in two of the nation's most prestigious newspapers calling Barack Obama a "Muslim Apostate." They don't make the assertion that Obama is a Muslim, which he certainly isn't, only that Osama bin Laden and other Islamic fundamentalists consider him one since his father was "born a Muslim."
I dedicate an entire chapter to this in ONE NATION UNDER FEAR. My thesis: this could be the most dangerous smear campaign in the history of presidential politics. It only takes one overzealous far-right wingnut who believes our government is being supplanted by terrorists... Only one.

Im sure most "low informaton voters" have no idea what the word "Apostate" even means - so when they read that they will automatically assume it means Obama IS Muslim.
