there are tons of schools who are just for muslims and preach their Saudi teachings.

No doubt the phony will give these schools tax money

It’s good but it’s likely a token gesture to show how “fair” they are.

Someone at the ACLU apparently forgot that the “promotion of religion” thing is only supposed to be used against Christians...

These people hate America and will do all they can to tear it down and change our culture for the worse. No monies should ever be given to them to help them in their cause.

Interesting dilemma for the libs. Do they stand with the secular progressives or the Muslims?

Calm down, people. The Obamanation just got anointed. The ACLU is just doing a little right-on-time cherry-picking to bolster their illusion of 'impartiality'. This is as PR-oriented as them coming to Rush's defense during his Oxycontin episode.

And they will put their least experienced dweeb in charge of the effort guaranteeing that they will loose.

This way they can appear to not be bias against Christians, and not piss off some of their biggest donors.
