Well........I hope that the "wealthiest among us" are the ones forking over the bills in the hospital for the Somali's! heh!

Nope. I think they are on a train somewhere out west trying to buy convince more voters.

I saw a woman the other day wearing a burka, the one that only allows the eyes to be uncovered. I was upset to see this in my country. Do you see that in Maine?

I live way far north in Maine, so I don't see that up here.

What type of Islam does this signify, if you know.

The Muslim/Islam religion is all I know. 

Isn't it illegal to walk around with the face obscured?

It should be.  Heck, a MAN with bad intentions could dress like a Muslim woman with face covered and do his dirty deed.

I recently had this problem in the ER. Having your backside oggled by the motley crew of junkies and drunks who congregate there nightly to plead for painkillers can stimulate some thought. I determined to make myself a suitable well-fitted johnny and keep it in the trunk of my car against future emergencies. Someone, somewhere might see this as an opportunity for a cottage industry.

So the holiness of the Quran is a fact, is it? Not "what Muslims call the holy book," not "the Muslim holy book" -- just "the holy book." No qualifier needed.

We should probably consider ourselves lucky that the next sentence wasn't:

The so-called "Bible" has no such provisions.

Oh yes, they fit right into Maine what with all the heat and humidity! heh!

BALDACCI AND ALLEN SEEK FEDERAL ASSISTANCE TO ADDRESS INFLUX OF SOMALI IMMIGRANTS

The then Senator Baldacci who is now our GOVERNOR, worked with Rep. Tom Allen and the Catholic Charities to being in over 1,200 Somali's to Lewiston, Maine.

Baldacci and Allen explained that the arrival of Somali families in Maine is expected to continue.

Also:

It's Against Federal Law to be a Sanctuary State for Illegal Aliens (Maine)

The last I heard, only 49 Somali's were working.  The rest are living off of welfare.

Maine even brought in a teacher to teach our high schoolers how to speak Somali.  Now.......why can't the Somali's learn ENGLISH since they are now living in America?  Anyone have an answer?

It's the arrogant way of the liberals. They look down their noses at others as if they can't take care of themselves. It goes back to that old proverb: "If I give my son a fish he won't be hungry today. If I teach him how to fish he'll never be hungry". The libs prefer giving the fish, it keeps others dependent on them and makes them feel needed.

He drives like a maniac mostly from a strong since of self preservation, I think. He has a Focus, I'd prefer an M1-A1, myself.

LoL's!

Seriously though, I work at MSP and the fuel tanks where "cabbies" fill up are there at the airport.

Driving to work can be very frustrating because of it!

Well, THEY might cave, but the Maine Government won't.  Seems the Maine Government can't kiss ENOUGH of their arses!

"...a woman the other day wearing a burka...mowing her front yard in 100+ heat !"

Hubby must be a peach of a guy. I'd sew him between the sheets and beat him with a good old American baseball bat.

http://islam.tc/ask-imam/index.php

This is an interesting website I found months ago. "Ask the Imam"...many subjects regarding Islamic life and following the writing of the Koran and other Islamic books. Some of the questions, especially under the heading "Women", are unbelievable to me! For example, apparently no eyebrow plucking, but NO hair allowed below the waist, either!

How these people (male and female both!) follow all of the laws is beyond me. And I guess one little slip and you're out of paradise for good.
