)of the commie terrorist Weather Underground. He was about 8 years old and in a Madrassa being indoctrinated in Ivy League Elitism, but he was able to attend weekly meetings via wireless. Also he doesn't *really* believe in God, his middle name's Hussein (not Usain), his wife's a Black Panther, and that's just what we know so far.
