ABC reports that Obama is passing on India's Golden Temple:
President Obama will skip visiting one of the country’s most sacred shrines out of fear that wearing the requisite headgear might make him appear Muslim ...
Joyner strikes the right tone in response:
Let’s hope this report is wrong because it would be truly embarrassing for the leader of the free world to risk insulting an important ally the second most populous country on the planet because it might fuel an idiotic conspiracy theory at home. Especially considering that the Sikhs aren’t even Muslim.
Sigh. The only way to fight FNC/RNC propaganda is to stare it down defiantly. Never let them see you afraid. Never concede the point to liars, bigots, and charlatans.
