Madonna Tells DC Concert Crowd Obama is a Black Muslim [View all]

We’re not sure if Madonna thought she was being funny when she referred to President Obama as a “black Muslim” at her recent D.C. tour stop, but if so, someone forgot to tell us when to laugh.

I watched the video, and yes, she said it. But why? In my opinion the message was great except for that one little part. Is this not more ammunition for the crazies to use? I just didn't understand this, so close to the 2012 election.
