NAMPA — U.S. Rep. Bill Sali expressed doubt Friday about the value of multiculturalism and warned that non-Christian principles could jeopardize the “protective hand (of God) that’s been over this country.”
Sali made his remarks at a meeting of the Idaho Press-Tribune’s editorial board.
The statements came not long after the Republican 1st District congressman said he did not like the use of Hindu prayer to open a session of the U.S. Senate last month. He also said the prayer and a Muslim member of Congress were “not what was envisioned by the Founding Fathers.” A spokesman for the Idaho Democratic Party denounced Sali’s remarks, calling them “un-American” and “an embarrassment to the state.”
Friday, Sali said multiculturalism is in conflict with the national motto “E Pluribus Unum,” or “out of many, one.” He said multiculturalism would mean “out of the many, the many.”
“The question is, is multiculturalism good or not?” Sali said. “I don’t think the Founding Fathers were multicultural. Multiculturalism is the antithesis of (the motto).” Sali said the United States was founded on principles derived primarily from the Scriptures. And he said drifting away from those principles could put the country in danger.
I forgot to click on the “excerpt” box when I posted this, do you need to fix that or do you want me to take this down and re-post it?
Well, you have a whole bunch of atheistic communists running the senate and congress, so what do you expect. Anything that can trash Christianity or Judism is just ducky with our elite little Kool-Aid drinkers. Mustn’t offend anybody (except Christians and Jews).
God bless Bill Sali.
And, yes, I mean the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
Bill Sali is multiphobic.
Sali, of course, is absolutely correct.
That’s what drives the scumbag Democrats NUTS.
