Although it is a day most Americans fail to remember to celebrate for its historical importance, this September 17th will mark the 239th anniversary of the signing of our Constitution. Unappreciated, particularly at a time liberals consistently trumpet an anti-American tune, is the fact ours is “the oldest single, codified framework for a national government still in operation.”
Meanwhile, California—the Democrats of which are probably the least appreciative of the freedoms the Constitution guarantees us—has passed a bill that will add two more holidays to be recognized there. The bill passed the state house and awaits passage by the state senate to become law. Ironically, if the bill is passed, those two holidays will represent an ideology completely contrary to the U.S. Constitution.
Claiming he seeks to promote inclusion and diversity, Assemblymember Matt Haney of San Francisco authored the bill seeking to make Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha state holidays. The former marks the end of Ramadan (the ninth month of the Muslim year in which strict fasting is observed from sunrise to sunset); the latter commemorates the culmination of the annual pilgrimage to Mecca. Lest one believe Haney’s initiative represents a limited majority in the California House, it passed by a vote of 64-1.
Such holiday recognition ignores what any reading of Islam’s holy book—the Quran—reveals: the religion will never align with the U.S. Constitution. Islamic law—Sharia—stands in sharp contrast to the freedoms our Founding Fathers memorialized in our Constitution. Why then seek to honor a religion that not only is contrary to our Constitution, but to the Judeo-Christian principles embraced by the 39 signers of the document? Such a preposterous initiative is similar to recognizing May 5th to honor the birthday of Karl Marx.

This bill passed 64-1. That is incredible. The Red-Green alliance is strong in California.
The Muzzie holidays would be a great time to publicly burn the Bad Book.
Islam is NOT a religion, it is a cult. Deport ALL Muslims.
Inclusion and diversity are feel good code words for destroying our nation.
Can we cut California loose?
Liberals love those who hate the USA.
Amazing how, 25 years after the biggest terror attack ever, muslims are gaining power over White Christians.
Wear a shirt saying that Islam is right about women.
Women better coverup on these days or here will be instant Caning
Ca. dems must be receiving millions from the muslims and are willing to pass major devastating legislation against the the voters to get it.
More proof that California has reached the point of feral with no chance returning to normal.
It never was known for civility in the first place.
Garbage people in a garbage state. Remove from the union.
The next step will be to create more Muslim holidays and eliminate the Christian ones.
A mushroom cloud over Mecca would be a good first step.
Whoring for votes?
