This is a desectration of the holy book and punishment is required.

I don't like this as much as you, but we are still free in America to worship as we wish and honor the God we chose in public. This should be touted as a fact of the epidmy of FREEDOM which the good men and woman of this country so honorable fought and died for! Embrace it!!!!

I don't like this, I don't even agree with it as an American, but it shows America is still alive and well! If you don't like it, shun and vote this guy out of office...

I think that Jack_1 was being sarcastic. The left hand is the "unclean" hand according to Islamic tradition, and Rep. Ellison is touching the Koran, Islam's "holy book" with his unclean left hand.
