First Lady Michelle Obama will unveil a proposal Monday that she hopes will ease tensions and work to counteract an ever growing Islamophobia gripping the nation. In an effort to strengthen relations and help build mutual trust with our two million Muslim Americans citizens, Michelle Obama is set to propose national Hug a Muslim Day.
The proposed new federal holiday would eliminate and replace Columbus Day, first observed as a state holiday in 1906, and became federal in 1937. From now on, every second Monday in October would be recognized and observed as national, Hug a Muslim Day.
The proposed new federal holiday is already drawing mixed reactions from Americans, and conservatives warn this is just another step in the Obama Administrations pledge to fundamentally transform America.
Proponents of the holiday are saying The First Ladys proposal would be a common sense measure to not only eradicate what many Americans believe to be a very insensitive and un-American holiday, and that by replacing it with a holiday promoting goodwill and acceptance of all Americans, regardless of their cultural and religious beliefs, would be a win-win for the country.
National Report sent correspondents across the country in hopes of getting a general feeling on how everyday Americans, young and old, would respond to the news of such a proposed holiday, and found throughout their travels and many interviews, Americans are not only split on the idea, but very passionate and vocal about it too.
Prudence Bradley, 19, a junior at the Stephenson College of Liberal Arts and Science in Bangor, Maine says Christopher Columbus was a murderer and rapist of indigenous people. Its about f*cking time this country stops glorifying that monster. Asked if she would take part in the holiday and actually, Hug a Muslim, Prudence says, Sure I would, why not?
Tea Party Patriot and Open Carry Texas member, Bud Freeman, 62, of Red River, Texas, tells National Report, How in Gods name are those Muslims allowed to run rough shot in this country? Hug a Muslim? Is this a joke? Replace Christo How about national buckshot between her eyes day? Go run that by the c*nt.
National Report did an independent study investigating the pros and cons of hugging Muslim Americans and found some interesting and eye opening facts. Dr. Juniper Meadows, MD, a Neurologist at Delta Bravo Memorial Hospital in Torrington, Vermont says, A hug, a pat on the back, even a friendly handshake are processed by the central nervous system in Muslims and can have a powerful impact on the Muslim psyche, making them feel happiness and acceptance. National Report asked Dr. Meadows if she herself would support and celebrate a national Hug a Muslim Day, Absolutely! she said, Hugging Muslims will encourage unity and understanding, and I think thats very much needed in this country right now, way much more than Columbus Day, which has in my opinion, worn out its welcome.
The general consensus is that doctors and scientists seem to agree with Dr. Meadows, however, there was one study done by Professor Cleavon Jefferson at the University of Mississippi State that showed hugging Muslims would only be beneficial if trust is involved. Professor Jefferson says, Yeah, good luck with that. Even if one was to somehow infiltrate one of their many No-Go-Zones across this country, do you honestly think they would want a hug? Preposterous.
National Report will review and analyze the proposal after The First Lady holds her press conference from the south lawn of The White House on Monday.
I wouldn’t. My fault was a misread of the SNOPEs thing from the other poster. I mistakenly thought the poster was relying on SNOPES as unbiased and true. It is not true when politics are concerned.
This has to be one of the stupid photos ever taken of the parasitic duo.
(Unable to copy a link for this photo. Can you provide one?)
You should have posted the correct name of the source which is not Drudge Report but is drudgereport.com.co
I know that in this case it’s all innocent fun, but I like to be able to trust the links on FR don’t lead me to a website I don’t know and which may have malicious software or a virus.
They blow up so fast these days.
Thanks.
“First Lady Michelle Obama will unveil...”
No, dear gawd, please no, anything but that...
Don’t be too sure of Michelle’s affinity for homosexuals, when it comes down to particular cases. The Islamic prohibition against any show of homosexuality is in fact a sham, considering the “bonds” of personal loyalty between the male members of various factions of Islamic jihadists, and their affection for adolescent and preadolescent boys. In fact, sexual perversions of all kinds, while officially prohibited, are carried on out of sight and with averted attention, very much fitting in with contemporary practice elsewhere.
But if for political purposes, or simple jealousy, outing the perpetrator of the deviancy and hurling the full weight of Shari’ah law upon him (or her) is rationalized, and expect no mercy or even justice in the matter.
That would get a ton of Females killed
Smell A Muslim Man Day.
God almighty. And that ain’t allah.
