They could at least keep their myths straight

First, the rightwing tried to spread rumors that Obama's a covert radical Muslim, sworn in on a Koran and sent to infiltrate the American government. We've all seen the moronic SPAM mailing about him supposedly not reciting the Pledge of Allegience .

Then a FOX News host and rightwing blogs decided he's the new Hitler and a fascist.

Now the conservative flagship magazine, The National Review, insinuates that his family is tied to communists or something.

And it's only February.

At this rate, expect the wingnuts to try to link him to Scientology, Hare Krishnas, Satanism, aliens and the Whig Party before the campaign's over.
