President Barack Obama has a new book, released Tuesday: Of Thee I Sing: A Letter to my Daughters.

Fox News has already whipped up a frenzy over the innocuous title, using a website headline to call attention to the inclusion of Lakota Sioux chief Sitting Bull, whose tribe fought in the battle at Little Big Horn. The Fox takeaway on the book? That Obama “Praises Indian Chief Who Killed U.S. General.”

The general was George Armstrong Custer, the subject of several books in his own right.

The Obama title, a forty-page hardcover, is described by the publisher as a “tribute to thirteen groundbreaking Americans and the ideals that have shaped our nation. From the artistry of Georgia O’Keeffe, to the courage of Jackie Robinson, to the patriotism of George Washington, President Obama sees the traits of these heroes within his own children, and within all of America’s children.”

Perhaps no literary heavyweight, but then again, perhaps not the seditious prose that Fox News claims.
