Was the volume Ellison used for his mock swearing-in photo op (not the legal swearing-in) a real Koran? I thought the Koran was only in Arabic, and that was merely an English translation of it.

This is from a foreign newspaper--do American papers allow someone to refer to the Nation of Islam as "extremist"?

Hillary once held up a newspaper in the Senate with huge headlines, "Bush Knew" (that is, about 9/11). Democrats routinely refer to Bush as Hitler. Accusing Bush of trying to be a dictator has also become commonplace. I don't think Ellison is much out of the Democrat mainstream.

I don't read most of the Dinosaur Media's BS. I'm trying to help them become dinosaur's.

Do you recognize who this is in the picture?
