History tells us what happened to the French after they did that.

Of course a national ISLAMIC day of prayer would be greeted with breathless excitement by our MSM and every left wing group.

That is part of the Rat party agenda.

And the agenda of many of the GOP elite.

I liked it. It covered more ground in explaining government than I ever remember learning anywhere else. It was so concise.
