Atlas Shrugs: CAIR AT THE BALLOT BOX

Atlas Shrugs: CAIR AT THE BALLOT BOX:

"'It's very noteworthy because not only does it reflect the changing
demographics, but it also shows that Muslim politicians can appeal to voters
outside their religious group,' said Dawud Walid, head of the Michigan branch of
the Council on American-Islamic Relations. 'A Muslim can't be elected in
Hamtramck just by depending on Muslims alone supporting them.' "


Another missive in what is turning out to be the most racist website on the internet. Beware Americans that Muslims among us have garnered new powers. Not only can they live peaceful among us, but they can also be popular, and have good ideas. So much so of both, that they can actually be elected to office, and this might be the worst part. They are able to get non-Muslims to vote for them, shame.

Ok, honestly though, what is the threat here? This is blatant racism and demagoguery, and it is un-American at a deep level. There is no reason to believe that we should not trust these elected officials because they are Muslim, America is stronger than that. If we are to be stronger than the terrorists, we have to show them our ideas are stronger than theirs. Which is easy, because they are, our ideas of freedom, justice, equality, democracy and the value of the individual make us strong.
