He's a Buddhist?
Apparently someone in Lakeville, MA decided that vandalizing a golf course was the best way to vent their disgust with President Obama, carving into the green " I 卍Obama."
But even a casual glance at the defaced green immediately tells you something is off: The swastika is facing counterclockwise.
Instead of insisting Obama is a stealth Muslim, are some on the fringe now contending he is a Buddhist?
Symbols, like words, mean things.
Obama said: "There's not going to be 40K troops for Afganistan or anything, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness."
So I got that goin' for me... which is nice.

And someone in Lakeville actually feels that Obama is the path to religious enlightenment. Symbols mean things. You know, we've been told that 52% of the US population literally believes he's the Messiah. They really believe that crap.
