'Homeland' star sends Obama a signed copy with a Muslim Joke


Damien Lewis-British star best known as Major Winters in the HBO mini-series "Band of Brothers", and currently the main antagonist of the highly popular show "Homeland"-sent a requested signed copy to one of Washington's biggest fan: President Obama.

However, Lewis was unsure of what to write:
While on "The Jonathan Ross Show," "Homeland" star Damian Lewis revealed that they sent Obama a signed DVD set, with each star adding a personal flavor to their signature.
"Claire Danes had written something really lovely and sweet saying, 'I was a fan of yours long before you were a fan of ours,'" Lewis said. Then he started racking his brain for what he should write. "I went, 'From one Muslim to another' in an indelible Sharpie. I couldn't take it back."
The highly anticipated season finale can be watched on Showtime on Sunday, December 16th at 10:00PM ET/PT.  Let's hope the President has an open sense of humor: Showtime renews for a third season.
