"If you are incapable of taking an oath on that book, don't serve in Congress."
I fully agree, but will the ACLU?
Nihad Awad, CAIR's executive director
why is this guy allowed to live?
I don't care if ellison swears on the Koran. Makes it easier to identify the enemy. Religous freedom is a founding reason for our nation.
When Super 8 hotels replace the Gideon bibles with Korans, we will further know the enemy.
There's so much wrong with CAIR's statement, I don't know where to begin... First of all, which Islamic states allow Jews (or Christians) to practice their religion freely, and to be in public office? Not many, if any. Who's being intolerant? And WTF does CAIR have to say about the Holocaust anyway? They deny the Holocaust of the 1940's, and they're looking to kill every Jew on the planet today.
Today's pop quiz: speak up if you have ever seen, heard, read the writings of, or met a tolerant religiously-observant Muslim. Anyone? Hello?
CAIR >> STFU
Memo to Muzzies: We don't take "demands."
Muslims, give them an inch and they take a mile. He can swear on the Koran, but it will be swearing that the Koran comes before the US Constitution.This is BAD news.
Muslims should not be allowed to run for office...we are making a mistake...
It has been noted on a couple of FR threads about this
that Congresscritters don't take an oath on any book, Bible included.
What difference what book he uses? He is a Muslim and Islam teaches that he can lie to an infidel without consequences.
whatever oath he takes will be a lie anyway.
As if any of the representatives actually believe in enforcing the Constitution.
God, I just LOVE the idea of Americans ,their way of life, and their existing institutions coming under fire from these Ahmed-come-lately A**HOLES from CAIR. Not a day goes by when they don't seem to get more and more emboldened.
If the jihadis in CAIR have their way, Mahmood Ahmadinejad, would be the replacement for Dennis Prager. Ahmadinejad denies that The Holocaust occurred (after all there still some Jews left alive). He hopes to be able to complete the job himself, after declaring himself The Mahdi.
The 5th District of Minnesota has dumber voters than NJ. I didn't think that there were such things.
I find it sheer chutzpah that CAIR would want Dennis Prager removed from the Holocaust Museum Board when Arab muslims in history supported Adolf Hitler. Perhaps this call should be left to the "infidel pigs and dogs."
I must give you some credit, however: you let your women speak.
Sincerely, [TSR]
Perhaps I should have said "some muslims" in general, in stead of Arabs, because I'm not sure in which countries there were the muslims supporting Hitler.
They don't believe the Holocaust ever happened, so.....why should they care???
