Dum Pendebat Filius

Now that Barack Obama has won the Iowa caucus and looks like a safe bet to win the New Hampshire primaries tomorrow, it seems that Clinton Derangement Syndrome has taken a back burner to Obama Derangement Syndrome.

Crazy Pammy took a break from trying to involve Obama in the Kenyan unrest to proclaim “Fact: Obama Hussein Practiced Islam”. She links to a FrontPage piece by Daniel Pipes in which Pipes pretends the silly Obama = Secret Muslim fairy tales haven’t really been refuted (although they have, by CNN, the AP, and ABC News). He’s careful to use plenty of weasel words (”Obama… had a reasonably Muslim upbringing“) to call the eight-year-old Barack Obama “an irregularly practicing Muslim who rarely or occasionally prayed with his step-father in a mosque.”

And by now you are probably aware that Jonah “Vegetarians Are Nazis” Goldberg and the execrable Instapundit are publicly fretting that, should Barack Obama win the Dem nomination, everyone will feel obligated to vote for him, because the darkies will riot if he loses. (Instapundit later updated his post to claim that’s not what he meant at all, and also to claim that “Democratic proxies” are responsible for the Obama = Secret Muslim fairy tales. Yep.)

Any worries over the “electability” of the various Democratic candidates are a waste of time, readers. Whoever gets the nomination is going to be in for a long, long year of nasty personal attacks.
