says Haq, "You wonder: What am I doing here, working for an institution that insists on viewing me as an outsider?"

I don't know, Haq. What are you doing here and why don't you clear out?

As Chairman Mao said, "Let every flower bloom" and then he lowered the boom.

" In that, Muslims aren't so different from other groups "who suffered discrimination, isolation and difficulties moving into American politics," said Voll. "You have to be here and pay your dues "

There is no repayment for the toll inflicted in just one day.

What price do you put on 3000 lives.

I haven't forgotten and I wont forgive.

To repeat what one great man said in a moment of crisis:

Houston, we have a problem.

"We're excited and hopeful," Haq said of the group's new mission. "It's nice to be Muslim and feel hopeful about the future."

If I were a Muslim I wouldn't be too hopeful about the future......

In fact, getting Americans to think of Islam as a U.S. rather than foreign religion is a big part of the challenge, said John Voll, a Georgetown University professor of Islamic history and expert on Muslim-Christian relations.

I'm not sure the Congressional Muslim Staffers Association is religious or just aother Democrat organization. It sseems they only interviewed people who worked for Dems.

Hey, maybe they're onto something. I should convert to Islam. That way I can chop off these looney idiot's heads off without guilt and make Allah happy--all in the same "whack"! Then I can beat and slap all these wenches back into the kitchen to fix my lunch!

We've seen the face of political Islam, both in the Middle East and in Europe.

Assimilate or leave. The host culture has no intention of adapting to you.

[Holden Magroin]

Islam and liberty are incompatible.

[Suzy Quzy]

Studying Islam on Capitol Hill?????Man oh man, just try a CHRISTIAN doing that...he would be run out of town!!

[Rapscallion]

They should do their praying on their own time. While they are being paid by the taxpayers they better be doing the taxpayers' business....they are way behind on getting needed legislative things done. They think (until) election day) that they have endless time for such distractions as Islamic prayer.

Does anyone have the Congressional members' names so we can shed more daylight upon them?

"The number of American Muslims is usually estimated at 6 million to 7 million, some 2 percent of the population."

If even a small percentage of them are radical muslims that is a heck of a lot of potential threats in our midst.
