The American Muslim and Arab voters are leaning towards the Democratic Party because of the Bush administration policies that substantially curtailed their civil liberties in the aftermath of 9/11.

Might I suggest rewording "curtailed their civil liberties" to "curtailed their desire to spread Islam."

So, Muslims are voting in favor of Muslim terrorists and their enablers, the Democrats. In the long run, this may not be a partnership that helps the Democrat Party win friends and influence people.

Democrats: the party of abortionists, perverts, Muslims, foodstamp recipients, and illegal aliens. An odd coalition.

I can't think of very many situations that one could insert the phrase "muslims gear up" and it would have positive connotations.

The Muslim American Society, which has set up voter registration booths in mosques across the country

Is that even legal?

"Muslim and Arab voters are leaning towards the Democratic Party"

Same as over here in the UK - they will tend to vote (unsurprisingly) for the party that falls over itself to support every culture other than its own. This would be the left; problem is, the Labour party here is all for Afghanistan & Irag so in London they vote for "Respect", the "party" headed by George Galloway.

Yep. Voter registration in and of itself is a non-partisan activity and is perfectly legitimate for a not-for-profit organization to conduct. As long as they don't politic for any particular party or candidate, it passes legal muster.

The Boy Scouts used to do this a lot. It died out because there were complaints that they were accused of engaging in partisan activity based on what neighborhoods they were doing GOTV in; if a Troop was in a Democratic neighborhood, the Republicans would make the accusation, and vice versa. But that was simply an accusation. The BSA decided that it didn't want to get involved in defending against it, but it's my guess that CAIR has no such concern.

Running voter registration and Get Out The Vote campaigns are perfectly legitimate operations for a not-for-profit, so I'd suggest that you all do the same in your churches.

Sign in Mosque:

"If we don't win this one, heads are gonna roll!"

"If we DO win this one, heads are gonna roll!"

Worth repeating.

Representative (Impeach Bush) Conyers, Michigan, has the highest percentage of Muslims in his district in the entire Nation.

Just something to ponder as we contemplate a Democrat majority in the House.

Bush administration policies that substantially curtailed their civil liberties

And what policies of the Bush administration curtailed the MUSLIM civil liberties?

What a pantload.

If the females wear veils or burqua type coverups, how will the election officials be able to verify their identity?

Oh, yeah..... Nevermind.

Bush's policies are directly responsible for the elimination of Muslims' liberties to hijack airliners and murder thousands of innocents.

Yes, and if I'd taken more time to think about it, the dead.

This isn't correct, I don't believe:

"At the same time, the government has launched a campaign against Muslim charitable organisations for allegedly providing financial or other material assistance to groups the government designates as "terrorist". Several Muslim charities have been shut down, although none has been found so far having links with "terrorist" organisations."

I think some have indeed been found to have ties to terrorists
