THEY JUST CAN'T HELP THEMSELVES, CAN THEY?

Mock health-care card at the Web site of the Reverend Donald Wildmon's American Family Association (which, needless to say, opposes health-care reform):



Hmmmm ... a Mississippi-based organization founded by a white right-wing preacher? A black president? And the name on the fake health-care card is ...

I.B. BROKE?

(It couldn't have been "I.M. Broke"?)

Is it just me? Am I reading too much into this?

Bonus craziness: the AFA is one of the groups insisting that Obama health-care legislation is "likely to mandate free 'sex-change' surgeries." (Rachel Maddow mentioned this on her show tonight.) As far as I can tell, the AFA has noticed that the word "gender" shows up occasionally in the health-care bills, and has put that together with the fact that the American Psychological Association recognizes the existence of gender identity disorder to conclude that ... all those references to "gender" mean the final bill will mandate sex-change coverage. Go ahead -- search "gender"in the PDFs of the House and Senate bills the APA cites. See anything about sex changes?
