Campaign 2008, Obama, rumors and smears

I applaud the Obama campaign's new anti-smear website, but there are some people who will never be disabused. A friend of mine said she patiently explained to a co-worker that Obama was a member of the United Church of Christ, etc. She responded, "Well, he'll always be a Muslim to me." No need for supporting evidence.
Here's the side of this reasoning that perplexes me: if he really WERE a Muslim, how do they think he would have ever made it this far? Wouldn't some patriot have managed to blow his cover by now?

I am reminded of an old saying, "Better to be though a fool than to open your mouth and remove all doubt."
Some people are fools and refuse to be anything else. "Proof? I don't need no steeenkin proof" they say. I don't waste my time on these kind of un-educated people.
Obama's web site is intended for the intelligent person, the rest will never bother because they don't want truth, preferring to remain set in their comfortable ignorance.

It all becomes clear when you recognize that fully 50% of the people are BELOW average --and maybe even more.

Half the people are below average.
