Muslim group calls for Carson to leave race
Washington Examiner ^ | 9-20-2015 | Robert King

Posted on 09/20/2015 10:34:03 AM PDT by sheikdetailfeather

Neurosurgeon Ben Carson should withdraw from the presidential race for his comments that a Muslim shouldn't be president a prominent Muslim-American group said Sunday.

"I think his remarks should be repudiated by everyone on the political spectrum and that he should withdraw," Ibrahim Hooper, spokesman for the Council on American-Islamic Relations, the nation's largest Islamic advocacy group, told the Washington Examiner on Sunday.

Carson, who is third in the Washington Examiner's presidential power rankings, spoke on NBC's "Meet the Press" Sunday and said that he wouldn't "advocate that we put a Muslim in charge of this nation."

You know what Carson should do? He should ask CAIR if they could ever conceivably support enacting sharia law, particularly federally, over the US, especially considering that they took Oklahoma to court to get their ban against sharia enactment, overturned. He should make them answer both points. Now they could employ taqqiyah, but it would be interesting to hear them have to answer that publicly,

And Carson should throw that quote in there and ask CAIR to account for it, while asking them about their suit in which they had Oklahoma’s ban of sharia overturned.

What if one of that “religion’s” most pronounced tenets is allegiance to itself, sharia law, and the global caliphate, above all other loyalties? Just that is enough to make it unconstitutional, because the caliphate is not like the Kingdom of God in Christianity (heavenly), it is an earthly, secular political system totally antithetical to everything in the Constitution and the Bill Of Rights.

Amen and so be it. If we can’t feed them the word of the one true God as our Lord Jesus admonished us to do, the feed them bacon and hops, that would make anyone a more civilized person. Maybe a bit of pork barbecue too. lol They don’t know what they are missing.

not mine, from the consensus on Fox business yesterday and today. She brings her rolodex and she has (at least temporary) alliances with those on wall street who do not want trump at any cost.

The NYT ad paid by her super pac has already been confirmed.
