Didn't Pat once divert his charity's airplane to Zaire to check on his diamond mines? Actually I'd be quite uncomfy if he were a judge.

The Washington-based Council on American-Islamic Relations yesterday called on "mainstream political and religious leaders" to repudiate the "hate-filled remarks."

They might, CAIR, just as soon as moslems everywhere reject and repudiate the koran.

Fair enough?

Pat is apparently on a publicity tour of making incindiary statements. I wonder if donations are down.

The nice thing is that he'll never be president, and so his promises of how he would govern are meaningless.

I'd have reservations nominating a muslim, too, but every person deserves to be evaluated as an individual. Anwar Sadat and Osama bin Laden are not clones.

Wait a minute: Didn't this guy also support the anti-Christian dicator of Zaire? Didn't he say the state department should be blown up? I won't support a judge who condones terrorism, and that means I wouldn't support Pat, the violence-promoting, unethical, money-worshipping phony preacher.

Well, technically it's the legislature who makes laws. Judges are only supposed to make rulings based on the law. So following this logic, it would be far more problematic to have Islamic elected officials in the legislatures.

Of course that's assuming judges don't legislate from the bench.

American Muslims have long been contributing members of American society.

What and when was the first positive significant contribution made to American society by an American Muslim? What and when was the latest?

Way to go, Pat! Thanks for underlining Christian outrage about Democratic religious tests for public office with a completely unnecessary comment. I don't think one should have a religious test outlawing Moslems per se. If they advocate beliefs that harm the written Constitution, then they should be excluded, but they should not be presumed to do so. I think Pat does our side more harm than good, and frankly is dumber than a pile of bricks. We need smart, effective advocates to go up against the liberal and MSM slicksters.

Nothing would piss me off more than if Bush nominated a Muslim for any governmental office.

"He (Robertson) is trying to perpetuate this notion that Islam is a monolithic entity inherently at odds with modernity and democracy," Iftikhar said.

Whaaaa?

Ya mean it ain't?

Can't be done: the Constitution forbids religious tests for public office. As President, Roberts would be immediately forsworn of his oath of office.

Too late Pat . . .

First Muslim Judge joins Maryland District Court
(Washington, DC, 7/31/2000)

In what may be a first for Maryland's Islamic community, a Muslim has been sworn in as a judge of the District Court in that state. (There are only a handful of Muslim judges nationwide.)

"God is merciful, and I pledge to show mercy from the bench - both for the accused and for those who have been wronged," said Judge Hassan Ali El-Amin.

Imam Yusuf Saleem of Masjid Muhammad in Washington, D.C., gave the invocation at the swearing-in ceremony. A number of judges and court officials at the event praised El-Amin for his integrity and work ethic. Imam W. Deen Muhammed also attended the event.

El-Amin was appointed by Maryland Governor Parris N. Glendening. Prior to his appointment, El-Amin worked as a defense attorney in Prince George's County, Maryland and in the District of Columbia. He completed his undergraduate studies at Yale University and received a law degree from the University of Maryland.

"Judge El-Amin's appointment shows that Muslims are entering and having a positive impact on every level of American society," said Nihad Awad, executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), a Washington-based Islamic advocacy group. A CAIR representative also attended the swearing-in ceremony.

This is no different than the libs blocking anti-abortion "Christians" from being Judges.

I thought this was a country where ALL people had FREEDOM of religion and the opportunity to serve in any Gov't post as anyone else?

I can't believe there are so many idiots here praising Robertson on being such a blow-hard bigot. AGAIN.
