Planning on attending Barack Obama's inauguration? You might want to hold off on renting that tux, according to sudden Google celeb Leland Freeborn of Parowan, Utah.

In a short piece for the LA Times, reporter Peter H. King sat down with Freeborn, AKA "the Parowan Prophet," and talked about his latest prediction: that riots will cause a nuclear war which will prevent Obama from taking office.

It makes almost as much sense as that whole birth-certificate controversy.

King's piece is a bit of a hit-and-run, and Freeborn -- who is, incidentally, a fan of polygamy -- admits he's been wrong before. But to be a prophet, especially when it comes to atomic fire raining down and wiping out millions of lives, you only have to be right once.

So good luck with that, Leland. And a Merry Christmas to you, too.
