Via Chris Bodenner. Plenty of folk seem surprised by the fact that, apparently or at least according to one poll, 18% of Americans think Barack Obama is a muslim. (Not that there’s anything wrong with that!).

Rather more people, for instance, think that the sun revolves around the earth or, I dare say, that Elvis is still alive.
More importantly, however, it permits one to mock cable news.
