Obama’s Dangerous Love of Apple Pie

Yesterday the Washington Post published a page 1 story headlined:

Foes Use Obama’s Muslim Ties to Fuel Rumors About Him

I don’t think this was necessarily a reprehensible piece, even if it should have debunked this nonsense more prominently than it did. Any discussion of these smears – not that there should be anything wrong with being a muslim, of course – can’t help but give them the benefit of the oxygen of publicity, but that doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be reported.
