Ok, I know I post too much about all the crazy Obama haters, but I just had to share this one... especially since this "crazy" one is a mayor:

Damn Id be embarrassed if I elected him.
edit: someone on facebook already made a support page for him
Thankfully there are a few voices of reason in the comments... unfortunately, most people think this is an attack on Russell's freedom of speech and are defending his words as such... I just dont get it. This has nothing to do with freedom of speech. He can write all the racist, anti-muslim stuff he wants about Obama, but he better be willing to suffer the consequences. Other supporters feel that its only facebook, and that it doesnt count for some reason.

Russell Wiseman, the mayor of Arlington, Tenn., (pop. 2,569 in 2000), was infuriated by President Obama's address on Afghanistan Tuesday night. This is what Wiseman posted on his Facebook page, according to the Commercial Appeal in Memphis:
"Ok, so, this is total crap, we sit the kids down to watch 'The Charlie Brown Christmas Special' and our muslim president is there, what a load.....try to convince me that wasn't done on purpose. Ask the man if he believes that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and he will give you a 10 minute disertation (sic) about it....w...hen the answer should simply be 'yes'....you obama people need to move to a muslim country...oh wait, that's America....pitiful."
Indeed! Later in the same post, Wiseman dug himself even deeper. Yes, this is possible:
"you know, our forefathers had it written in the original Constitution that ONLY property owners could vote, if that has stayed in there, things would be different......."
Indeed! Wiseman, a vice president and commercial lender at First Capital Bank in Germantown who has twice been elected mayor, has about 1,600 friends on Facebook. When contacted by the Appeal to discuss his views further, Wiseman declined to elaborate. "It's ridiculous for someone to send my Facebook post," Wiseman said. "You guys are trying to make a mountain out of a molehill."
It doesn't take a lot of work.
