I'm wondering if "not really American" is just their way of saying, "not one of us white folks"
I think it is a mix of things. He's about as threatening as it gets. He's a multicultural, global thinking, intellectual. The antithesis of far right. If he was also a gay atheist, we'd probably have states actually seceding.
Haven't even Bill O., the Coulterbeast, and Michelle Malkin said that the birthers are batshit crazy?
According to Salon, only Rush seems to be waiting for all the facts to come in or something. [link]

I just snorted green tea up my nose.
Well, Lou Dobbs is by far the biggest pusher here. Biggest name one, anyway.
Well, Lou Dobbs is by far the biggest pusher here.
And is getting spanked every day by his CNN colleagues. It's just not getting as much airplay as Dobbs' own drivel.

I'm confused by the lap-band ads on TV where the woman says she's having the surgery because she wants to go to Paris with her husband. I can see that the father might be too overweight to participate in as vigourous as exercise regimen as he might initially want to, but whyever does she need drastic measures to lose weight to go to Europe? Is she afraid of being mocked by nasty French people or something?

I have developed an addiction to frozen fruit. I can't stop eating the stuff I've bought to make into smoothies. I rationalise by the thought that it's no less healthy this way than blended, but it still seems wrong. But it's just so tasty, especially on a hot day. Which we haven't quite had in a while.
FWIW, I do know morbidly obese people who have trouble fitting into airline seats, so a long flight is very uncomfortable. But I think the ad is trying to be more romantic-sounding than "my husband will want to have sex with me again."

If so, we have a zillion ways to mock Americans, her efforts are fruitless.
I don't see how eating frozen fruit could be wrong unless it hurts your teeth.
Oh dear.
