What’s worse, I believe this guy was invited to give the opening prayer by a Republican

Except in the case of the Texas Seante, the Senate is controlled by majority Republicans, under the leadership of a Republican Lt. Governor, and this Imam was invited by a Republican Senator, Sen Shapiro.

And for those of you who don't know, "Shapiro" is a Jewish name. I hang my head in shame that someone of my faith - AND a Texas Republican - could be so incredibly stupid and naive. What's next, a round of Kumbaya before some ritual beheadings?

These people act in the mold of Gandhi. He believed that the Jews of Europe should have gone placidly to their deaths, confident that peace would prevail.

And we all know how BOTH the Jews and Gandhi met their ends.

I’m more a Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition type.

She's actually proud of having given him the forum, and defends her action as an all-American expression of religious freedom -- ignoring the fact that this man's religion seeks to destroy all others!

See her statement, issued yesterday.

Plano Republicans should be made aware of this.

The logic is very simple to me. The Muslim Jihad is worldwide and wants to destroy Israel.. So why would any Jew seek to go out of her (his) way to score brownie points with Islam? In this case by inviting this Imam to give the morning prayer at the Texas Senate. Why would any Jew do that? In this case it backfired, not that the stupid Jewish woman who invited him cares or even wants to know. She undoubtedly still thinks she did the right thing, the ecumenical thing.

While reality is this Imam made Muslim prayer that is very disrespectful to Christians and Jews. Probably delivered in Arabic to help fool the stupid infidels.
Just imagine a Jew or Christian delivering prayers to the Texas Senate that are anti Islam. We would never hear the end of it
