There is no such thing as a republican moslem.
For that matter, there is not such thing as a liberal democrat moslem.
Can't you just see a lib demorat, democrat, in favor of homos, lesbos, child molesters (well, the child molesters, maybe...ahhh, even the damn homos, I guess) being accepted into the moslem fold?
You can only be one OR the other.
A peaceful Muslim is a Muslim at room temperature.
What does she call this article if not an attack on republicans?
Instead of beating the drum of “oh, the republican party hates me even though I’m a republican,” she needs to constantly beat the drum of, “I don’t identify with the terrorists and extremists, and I want to change them,” then we can talk. She needs to work from the inside and change the attitude of her own people. Yes, she has a long battle, but when that is done, then...
otherwise, it’s just dhimmitude.
These are you OWN comments:
“Jesus, too, exhorted his followers to love their enemies –
I exercise my rights and freedoms as an American in both my mosque and in Republican politic
For example, on Independence Day, you will find me both fasting for Ramadan and walking as part of the District of Columbia Republican Party at the Annual Independence Day Parade in Washington DC.”
Jesus was not stupid. He knew we would have people we disliked, possibly even our own neighbors. He taught us to love the SOUL of the person and pray for it.
If you want rights and freedom, then why are you still a member of a mosque?
If you’re such a good American, why do you fast for Ramadan?
Rat poison is 90 percent wheat.
YOu can say anything you care to.
If you are a moose limb, you are MY enemy.
F you and your gutter “religion”
Sorry, lady, your “religion is hateful and mean-spirited. I suggest you convert to another religion.
” I identified as a Democrat for several years when I was younger, but found it hard to defend liberal values as they were so often in conflict with my deeply-held beliefs.”
I think its your deeply held beliefs that Newt is afraid of.
Taqiyya!!!!!!
IN March 2014, the USMCO was formed, the US Muslim Council of Oragainsations. It announced its presence with a Chicago announcement on May 12, 2014. Its purpose is to organize initially efforts as a voting bloc to influence the 2016 election, and, to sponsor as many candidates for office at all levels as possible in the US. Any and all Muslim candidates for political will probably be found to have connections and support from the USMCO and its organisations.
Here are two on what the USMCO is:

The creation of the USMCO is of massive significance and ignored by the media totally.
I call BS. At best she’s a provacateur. I was a Democrat once and they attacked me, because I am a patriot and they are not patriots.
I’ve known and worked with several patriotic Americans who also happened to be Muslim. I think the difference is they weren’t born in repressed Arab countries, but came here from modern parts of India, Egypt, Ghana, and the Philippines. They were also college educated, tech-savvy guys who were taught to take the Koran symbolically, not literally. Hence they are moderates, not fundamentalists. And to be honest, I’ve had more heated disagreements with Hindus and Catholics than with these guys, who were thoughtful and open minded, welcomed opposing viewpoints, and most of all were happy to be in the US.
As Michael Savage points out, there is a lot of common ground between moderate Islamic values and American social conservatism. We should be glad for that because it helps our side, even if just a little.
These guys I knew were happy to let their wives drive cars, kids eat at McDonalds etc. for which they caught heat from other Muslims in their mosque. But they stood their ground, and each said the same thing: we’re in America, and this is the American way.
As for terrorism: yes, it is definitely a divisive issue within the American Islamic community. It’s just not something they talk about openly, for obvious reasons. At least one friend of mine told me he had been approached by provocateurs in his mosque who wanted him to join the jihadi cause. He told them to pound sand. Another told me there was a serious split in his mosque between the African moderates and the Pakistani fundamentalists they shared the mosque with, and they were looking for a new worship space. A lot of them were doctors, scientists, and computer programmers who want nothing to do with jihad and just want to peacefully co-exist as free Americans with a shared African heritage.
That ideological split is the source of the violent inter-Islamic fighting all across modern Africa. In the past, African Muslims have traditionally been more moderate and willing to co-exist with their Christian and Animist countrymen, until recent times when violent jihadists and fundamentalist youth gangs started attacking villages and slaughtering everybody they considered infidels. But western media doesn’t acknowledge the true nature of this inter-Islamic war, which is coming from the Arab side of the African population.
Make no mistake, a large proportion of the victims of the Arab-African jihad are moderate Muslims, as well as Christians and Animists. We’re all infidels in the eyes of the fundamentalists.
I smell a rat.
I have no doubt individuals of every stripe around the World have issues with Islam.
It seems this woman is making her allegiance to Islam the priority.
Islam is a war plan. End of story.
Get bent, haji. You people are a plague.
I agree. Islam is not compatible with human civilization; cannot coexist peacefully with any civilized people or organization. People who follow islam will lie to the contrary, but they are just infiltrators with evil intent.
Like the insect commercial, they just want to get inside.
They intend nothing other than deception and destruction.
There is no need to "deal with" peaceful people. You came off as sticking up for radicals. Why not do something usual and protest the radicals?
Wouldn't surprise me if this lady was a rat plant, sent to rabble rouse.
