Clinton Congratulates Muslim-Americans on the Occasion of Eid ul-Fitr
Hillary Clinton ^ | 10/13/2007 | Hillary Clinton

Posted on 10/13/2007 5:26:47 PM PDT by mdittmar

Hillary Clinton today released the following statement in celebration of Eid-ul-Fitr, which marks the end the month of Ramadan or fasting.

"I am pleased to join Muslim-Americans today in celebration of Eid-ul-Fitr, marking the end of the sacred month of Ramadan. During these times of conflict, it is critical that we recognize the positive role of spiritual renewal, compassion, and charity that the month of Ramadan symbolizes. In the United States, millions of Muslims represent hard-working, law-abiding, and family-oriented Americans of all ethnicities and national origins.

"I am committed to encouraging the principles of diversity and mutual respect that are the bedrock of our nation. We need to help all Americans understand the important contributions that Muslim-Americans make to keep our communities and country strong. I wish Eid Mubarak, or Happy Eid, with prayers for peace and harmony to all."

I challenge her, or anyone else, to name ONE.

Egad! Looks like Hillary has involved herself in case of plagiarism. Isn’t this an oft used speech by President Bush?

I really don't know of any. The best I could come up with is that they wash their feet in the footbaths they have demanded be placed wherever they want them. So maybe,( I'm not all that sure either) they have very clean feet. Does that count?

Did Hillary have a burqa on when she said this?

It’s obvious to me that there will soon be a Nobel Prize for Muslim Ass Kissing. Hillary is just trying to get a jump on it.

"I am committed to encouraging the principles of diversity..."

Serious question: What are the 'principles of diversity?'

“America is a land of many faiths, and our society is enriched by our Muslim citizens. May the holy days of Ramadan remind us all to seek a culture of compassion and serve others in charity.”

“Laura and I send our best wishes. Ramadan Mubarak.”

Yeah, that sly old devil GW Bush. I’m certain GW is thinking his embrace of Islam and the ongoing colonization of the USA by Muslims will one day pay benefits when we don’t have to travel half way around to world to find Islamic terrorists. They’ll be right here! Imagine the savings to the military for not having to transport troops and equipment overseas.

I’m guessing Hillary, an old devil in her own right, if elected president would continue with the Bush policy so we can have justification to bring our troops home when all hell breaks out.

Dang, politicians think of everything!

What a crock!

I wonder when the Commodities Scam Queen first ever heard of "Eid-ul-Fitr." It's hard for me to believe that she ever heard this phrase before September 2001. And that being the case why she would pay the slightest attention to it now that its celebrants have attacked our country.

The principles of diversity as practised right now in the U.S. is to let the unwashed from every third world nation to invade our borders against our laws and demand that we tolerate their f’n presence...STOP THE FLOW AND GET THESE PEOPLE OUT OF HERE!

I'm aware of four jet airliners that will never crash accidentally thanks to muslims.

#3

Will we hear her say next ‘Ich bein ein Tehranian ? *

* Paraphrasing JFK (JFK: Ich bein ein Berliner, June 26,1963)

“Two thousand years ago,” he began, “the proudest boast was ‘civis Romanus sum.’ Today, in the world of freedom, the proudest boast is ‘Ich bin ein Berliner.’” In films of the speech, an index card is visible in Kennedy’s hand. He had written in red ink the Latin for “I am a Roman citizen” and a phonetic spelling for Berliner, as “Bearleener.”

Oh heck, you don’t know what you have missed!

You should have been here earlier this decade to see how GW Bush policies brought over whole Muslim communities from Russian provinces, plus large scale relocations of Muslims from Iraq. To make them all feel at home, the Saudis were given blessings to poured in hundreds of million of dollars for the construction mosques and Islamic schools all over the USA for the new Muslim colonies. The Saudis were also kind enough to have the schools supplied with editions of the same Saudi textbooks that gave rise to fanatical Muslims in Pakistan, Lebanon, the Sudan, the West Bank, and Gaza.

Oh yeah! Not to be upstaged, the Roberts Supreme Court ruled last October that public schools can make the reading of the Koran and recitation of Islamic prayer mandatory curricula despite previous Supreme Courts banning prayer in public schools.

GW has expressed his gratitude by introducing annual Ramadan celebrations, a hallmark of his presidency, and holding the celebrations at the White House rather than his Texas Ranch.

Oh well. Maybe if Hillary is elected as president you'll have an opportunity to see the policies carried on the remainder of the decade.
