Herman Cain Was Elated When He Learned That His Muslim-Sounding Doctor Wasn’t Muslim
Herman Cain Was Elated When He Learned That His Muslim-Sounding Doctor Wasn’t Muslim


When Herman Cain made an appearance at a Jesus-themed amusement park in Florida recently, he made an effort to connect with the pious Christians who had decided to spend their day there instead of someplace even remotely fun. And what better way to ingratiate yourself to your Christian brothers and sisters than telling an anecdote about how much you hate Muslims! As Yahoo's Chris Moody reports:

He did have a slight worry at one point during the chemotherapy process when he discovered that one of the surgeon's name was "Dr. Abdallah."

"I said to his physician assistant, I said, 'That sounds foreign — not that I had anything against foreign doctors — but it sounded too foreign," Cain tells the audience. "She said, 'He's from Lebanon.' Oh, Lebanon! My mind immediately started thinking, wait a minute, maybe his religious persuasion is different than mine! She could see the look on my face and she said, 'Don't worry, Mr. Cain, he's a Christian from Lebanon.'"

"Hallelujah!" Cain says. "Thank God!"

The crowd laughs uneasily.

1. Cain is probably the most open bigot they have
these days it's pretty rare for people to show their Archie Bunker side.

5. Hilarious comment on that article's page:
"In related news, he's also glad that the Vlasic Pickle Stork isn't Jewish, the entertainer Murray Hill isn't a man and Reverend Sun Myung Moon isn't from outer space."

HAHAHAHA.

6. He was glad to find out that
Bruno Mars isn't an illegal alien.

Ali Mcgraw isn't half Scottish/Arabian

and then there's General Omar Bradley.


And he now feels okay going to Medina Ohio.
