What religion does Rice practice?

Nineteen particular Muslims upset many Americans in the United States and around the world.
I am more than happy for her to visit my house.
Why does she want to visit a Mosque anyway.
At least the Blackburn Rovers have an American goalie...maybe she can stop in and say hi to Brad Friedel for us.
"Muslim discontent"?....well, boo friggin' hoo
Someone needs to explain to Ms. Rice that what she is seeing in England are the results of stupid immigration policies.
Then maybe she could tell her boss...
