Anti-Muslim Congressman Has ‘No Intention Of Apologizing’
Anti-Muslim Congressman Has ‘No Intention Of Apologizing’
Rep. Virgil Goode (R-VA) is under fire for a virulently anti-Muslim letter sent to constituents earlier this month. In the letter, Goode says, “I fear that in the next century we will have many more Muslims in the United States” if we do not adopt “strict immigration policies.” He references the election of Muslim Rep.-elect Keith Ellison (D-MN), and warns “American citizens” to “wake up” or “there will likely be many more Muslims elected to office.”
Last night, the Council on American-Islamic Relations said the letter “sends a message of intolerance” and called on Goode to apologize.
In an interview today with ThinkProgress, Goode’s press secretary Linwood Duncan declared that Goode has “no intention of apologizing.” Duncan repeatedly refused to answer more detailed questions, saying only that Goode’s letter “speaks for itself.” Asked whether Goode had ever targeted Muslim-Americans in his previous statements, Duncan said, “I’ve worked here for 10 years, and I’m not aware of this topic being addressed in the past.” You can call and ask for an apology HERE.

Racist bigoted assh*les never apologize. That is why Bush won’t ever apologize either.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:25 pmThe letter does indeed speak for itself.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:25 pmHe has nothing to apologize for. What a bunch of idiots. Go around screaming about Christians and raising alarms and that’s ok. Then there come the Muslims who are extremely prejudice. And they should be protected by the Progressive Thinkers? You all must be smoking crack I mean really.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:28 pmHey, for a politician like this one, bad publicity is often better than no publicity. Nixon, for example. Incumbents like name recognition.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:28 pmIf cons hate Islam so much; why did they liberate radical Islam from Saddam (who ran a secualr nation and silenced/killed radicals), and then name in the Iraqi constitution Islam as the national religion and source of all Iraqi law?
If cons were consistent (which they never are) they would have left Saddam in power to silence, torture and kill radicals.
COnservatives aren’t too bright. Thats why they are conservatives!
December 20th, 2006 at 3:31 pmAsk him if he would wear the prophet with bomb in turban t-shirt in public. Virginia it’s for ethnic cleansing.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:31 pmThis guy is now going to be a star in rethug circles, watch. There is nothing that a rethug can do or say that will get them ostracized.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:33 pm#3 joesillogical…if you’re going to post, please make some sense. Thank you.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:34 pmIf Christians could also claim that they only have a few tens of thousands of radicals. Why they have more child molesters than THAT!
December 20th, 2006 at 3:34 pmwell joeslogic, it looks like you are as big a f*cking assh*ole as Goode is. So much for religeous freedom. And by the way, dipshit: the guy from MN is an AMERICAN CITIZEN. Why are you cons so stupid?
December 20th, 2006 at 3:36 pmHe said the truth! It’s funny how you Leftys mention C.Ai.R here. It’s a group that has ties with Hamas and Hizballah. They also didn’t condemn the Holocaust conference in Iran.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:37 pmNeo-Nazis/Islamists and Leftists, a match made in heaven!
This racist bastard Goode needs to apoligize and resign ASAP!!!
December 20th, 2006 at 3:37 pmOF COURSE………he’s a Republican…………..
December 20th, 2006 at 3:38 pmThe State of Virginia showed its true colors, they are still mad over the civil war and mad as hell at black and brown people or anything different. Pray for that state it needs a purging.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:38 pm“Ask him if he would wear the prophet with bomb in turban t-shirt in public. ”
I have and have been aplauded for it!
December 20th, 2006 at 3:38 pmEgad, he looks like Mr. Burns on “The Simpsons.”
“…if I were to have them killed, I would be the one to go to jail. That’s democracy for you.”
December 20th, 2006 at 3:40 pmThe STILL unresigned Virgil Goode R-VA…….
December 20th, 2006 at 3:40 pm#3 joeslogic
We scream about radical christians who are just as bad as radical muslims …
Intolerance has no place in our government… if any of our elected officials spout such bigotry, i do not think they are capable of being effective leaders.
What he is saying about Islam is the same bigoted line used by conservatives since the 19th century, except then it was about Irish Catholics and the dangers of Popery. The influx of immigrants of a different religion did not destroy us then, it will not destroy us now … in fact it will make us stronger.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:41 pmThe STILL unresigned Virgil Goode R-VA…….
Boss Hogg: “Virgil? We gotta get hoppin’ and go after the Duke boys…I think they izz MUZZLUMMZ!!!!!!!!!”
December 20th, 2006 at 3:42 pmBrilliant.
In one swoop he proves beyond any doubt that neocons are just as much a threat to our “Freedoms” as the Muslim extremists are.
Personally I think he should stop mincing words and re-issue the letter to more accurately reflect his mindset: instead of “Muslims” say “Niggers & Muslims”.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:42 pmPlease do not let the muslims gain a foothold in America.It leads to all kinds of communications between them which invariably leads to thoughts of Allah which eventually leads to sleeper cells which eventually leads up to terrorists which eventually leads to bombings which eventually leads to killings.This viscous cycle of Islam and Islamists coming to America must stop now.You let them get setup,and before you know it they are like rabbits or mice,they are everywhere speaking that foreign lingo like no one knows what they are thinking.When we actually do know exactly what they are thinking.They go into a trance and then start murmuring Allah`s name and before you know it that demon spirit has taken ahold of the boy and twisted his soul up in black sashcloth trying to eat it alive for all eternity.This is why muslims and the muslim faith must be stamped out on a worldwide basis.I am all for congressman and senators to keep us safe from the roving bands.Muslims are trying to gain a foothold onto christian ideals and territories.We will not stand for this.I have alot of faith in Mr. Reid.He will vote to keep this war going so we can stamp out terrorism and the Muslims.They are threatening Christianity.This will not stand.When the Roman Catholic Church tell any nation to go to war,they go to war.Nations have no choice in the Vatican`s decisions.They all obey the Vatican.Even the United States of America.Our Vatican is the most powerful govt.and the most powerful banking establishment in the world.You cannot change this.Therefore you must come on board to be spared from noncompliance with the Lord our God.You have no real choice.Not at the end of the day.It`s God Almighty or nothing.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:42 pmThis is the level of Christianic hatred and bigotry that winds up with people being gased to death by the millions.
This god damned Christian pile of shit doesn’t deserve to live in America.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:45 pmIf he believes we should ban Muslims, why apologize? But then why would we put in Congress anyone with such hateful views? The next time he comes up for reeelection, the citizens of his distinct should be reminded of what an insult to Virginia little Macaca, Jr. really is.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:46 pmWhy do you Lefties care what he says?
He has a right to free speech! If he feels that way why not!
AshenShard,
December 20th, 2006 at 3:48 pmThere’s a differnce between Muslims and others. They want special treatment and want to impose Sharia law on others. Look at the problems France, UK and Netherlands are havinhg with Islamic immigrants.
jorge, my hat’s off to ya. People do like consistent behavior. My argument is the selectiveness regarding Rep. Goode’s choice of which Illegal Immigrants he deems worthy. Again as I said yesterday this is not about Muslim immigrants his posturing is to his constituencies attitude towards Latino immigrants he’s just using Muslims as a straw-men. Now where is Newt with his revised first amendment……Would that include repealing hate speech too?
December 20th, 2006 at 3:48 pmGood - the sorry s.o.b. can join G. Felix macaca-boy in the ranks of the used-to-was’es
December 20th, 2006 at 3:49 pmwow……..hey Answeil Vacharette (R) Va, can I please have some of whatever you are smoking? It makes the shit we get here seem weak! That has got to be the dumbest post I have ever seen on a message board. You nutjob righties used to be amusing, like watching animals at the zoo. Now you are a danger to this country and must be eliminated at all costs.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:49 pmGoode says, “I fear that in the next century we will have many more Muslims in the United Statesâ€
I think Republicans have a cut and paste speech library somewhere. I mean if you take out Muslim and place Jews, blacks or mexicans, you have their party platform for the past 50 years.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:49 pmHow about this Republican ass resigning his seat in the Congress today?!
December 20th, 2006 at 3:50 pmThe truth is, Jorge, that while Goode certainly has a right to say these, they are crazy notions that no Senator should actually try to push.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:50 pmRacism has gotten America nowhere.
Answeil Vacharette stop the act and convert Islam already. You will learn to love people for who they are, not for what they believe in. You wont have hate in you anymore. Right now you have way to much time on your hand to defend this so called “dinosour” politician.. Go get a life
December 20th, 2006 at 3:54 pmMuslims aren’t a rae. It’s a religious/cultural group. So disliking Islam isn’t racism. The same way you Leftists criticize Christians, we have a right to criticize Islam. so stop bitching complain about something else.
Jay Randal,
December 20th, 2006 at 3:55 pmDo you want to live under Sharia Law?
Well, look at the way all the Jews in Congress have ruined America! (humor)
December 20th, 2006 at 3:56 pmCould the Muslims do any worse? (humor)
Joe Illogical,
December 20th, 2006 at 3:57 pmI voted for Mr. Ellison.
I’m proud of that.
I’m Christian.
I’m not always proud of what today’s Christians in politics have become.
Coexistence is the only way out of this. Period.
Firebranding, racism, Nationalism, greed, envy and jealousy will not.
America was built proudly on accepting all, regardless of race or religion.
If you don’t like America, move to Russia. Or Kazahkistan. Or Waco.
I don’t care where you go, but if you don’t like America’s foundation, you don’t have to stay here. You don’t own America. Neither do I. Sure, coprorations want to own America. They want to own everything. They already own our President. Do they own you, too?
Start thinking for yourself. Give it a try, it really works. It’s called self actualization. Too big a word? How about being responsible for one’s own actions.
Having a Muslim in congress may be the best thing to come out of the midterm elctions. So far, Congressman Ellison has held his head high and not kow-towed to K Street or Pennsylvania Avenue.
You go, Keith! America has work to do, and the clock’s ticking.
#24 Jorge
Muslims are no different from anyone else. Most monotheistic religions want to impose their beliefs and laws on everyone else. Is the same with the christian right in this country.
The problems in Europe with the Muslim immigrant population is racism. They cannot get good jobs and are passed over for promotion, etc. In many ways, Europe is having many of the same issues as the US, except in the US the main groups are Mexican and South American.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:57 pmI think Republicans have a cut and paste speech library somewhere. I mean if you take out Muslim and place Jews, blacks or Mexicans, you have their party platform for the past 50 years.
Bingo. And restricting immigration has been so effective in limiting the numbers of those groups in America, historically, hasn’t it?
December 20th, 2006 at 3:58 pmRE: Nations obey the Vatcan:
I distinctly recall the Vatican telling Bush that they were against the Iraq invasion and Bush telling the envoy, “Don’t worry heh heh, it is gonna be quick and bloodless”. Plus - W is a born again - all us Catholics are going to hell as far as he is concerned - nice.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:58 pmPlease do not let Answeil Vacharette (R) Va. gain a foothold on all TP threads. It eventually leads to hijacking, which eventually leads to off topic tangents, which eventually leads to some assinine post by JMH or Happy Dude. This vicious cycle must stop. You let them post, and before you know it, there like rabbits (well, not JMH). They are everywhere, posts that are non sensical. They go into a trance and then start murmuring Bush’s name and before you know it that demon spirit has taken ahold of the boy and twisted his soul as he watches Fox News and listens to Rush Limbaugh for all eternity. This is why trolls and the troll’s posts must be stamped out on a worldwide basis, especially Answell Vacharettes (R) Va. You have no real choice.Not at the end of the day. When one can only copy and paste, one does not truly think, and thus one does not truly exist.
Oh, and as Spudge_Boy would say so eloquently…
December 20th, 2006 at 3:59 pmF&CK YOU!
That’s an awfully big brush you’re tarring everybody with, Jorge.
December 20th, 2006 at 3:59 pmAshenShard,
December 20th, 2006 at 4:01 pmI’ve met Europeans, they said they wish that like the US the immigrants were Hispamnic. We come from the same Judeo-Christian root as the US and Europe. We assimilate better than Muslims. That’s a fact. Muslims want to live under Sharia law. That’s the diffrence.
Obviously you’re a head in the sand Leftists that your blinded by Political correctness propaganda!
See, Jorge, here’s the thing again.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:01 pmThere is a big difference between criticizing Islam and Goode’s remarks. I myself have criticisms of Islam, as I do with Christianity and most, if not all, major religions out there. But because I criticize Christianity, I don’t worry about Christian people being elected to office, since the majority of Congress is Christian. I like many Christians, foremost among them Jimmy Carter.
Goode’s remarks, though, don’t merely criticize Islam. He suggests calling for the racial profiling of Muslims, and Exclusion Acts that would make the 1882 one whimper in shame; laws that say Muslims can’t have certain jobs.
Whether or not they have to wear Green Crescent & Star markers is still ambiguous

What a douche.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:02 pmKinda sad when the best Virginia Repugs can put up is Virg Goode ol’ Boy and Georgie “Macaca” Allen. Makes you question the gene pool there.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:02 pmYou have no real choice.Not at the end of the day.It`s God Almighty or nothing.
Comment by Answeil Vacharette (R) Va.
You are absolutely delusional. Long live atheists!!!!!!!
December 20th, 2006 at 4:03 pmIn a way America is already ruled by Sharia law Jorge, because Bush acts like a Taliban leader who talks to some god for guidence. America cannot survive 2 more years of Bush stupidity, so he must resign with Cheney, or both of them impeached!
December 20th, 2006 at 4:05 pmGoode’s district includes the elite liberal-leaning stronghold of the University of Virginia. I would think this action of Goode’s would occasion some serious response by constituents . . . albeit not the one’s who reelected him.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:05 pmWe’ve got a majority. That’s all it takes to boot someone from the House. This kind of rhetoric is simply unacceptable.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:05 pmConservative Repug mantra:
We don’t wish to learn
December 20th, 2006 at 4:05 pmBut we hate what we don’t understand
I’ve met Europeans,
Comment by Jorge
Wow! Like, in person, or what!
Gee, imagine that, and they didn’t even try to kill you?
You must be the luckiest person alive!!!!!!
December 20th, 2006 at 4:07 pmMuslims are not molesting children in the US.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:08 pm#40 Jorge
If Muslims want to live in Europe and subject themselves to sharia law, that is fine … as long as they don’t try to force it on others.
Muslims are also not one distinct group … there are different levels from the most basic of practicing to nonpracticing.
And the reason Europeans would rather have Hispanic immigrants like us is because maybe they are more willing to put up with bull crap than muslims are. At least that is what i see. You also forget that muslims come from the same Judeo-christian tradition. All originated from the same area.
And i don’t see why assimilation is necessary … to work correctly, assimilation needs to work both ways … if it only worked one, we wouldn’t celebrate holidays like cinco de mayo and st patricks day in this country.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:09 pmYeah, when I heard he was a big Shania Twain fan I was like, “ok, that’s it.”
December 20th, 2006 at 4:10 pmA bigot never apologizes for his aberrant behavior. I wouldn’t expect this slob to even approach something resembling dignified behavior or remorse for reprehensible behavior. He’s a jackass of the first order and needs to be put out of office for this heinous backstabbing he’s done. Everyone needs to bombard his office with letters expressing the shame which he should be feeling for his embarrassing and calous behavior. How dare him think that he represents the american people and do such things? He needs to be either forced into an apology or forced out of office.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:13 pmBeing muslim is not compatible with being an American. This is a cult like “religion” that is ruled by a small, radical inner core. They cannot assault the “great satan” of America with military so they will use our own constitution to take over this country. As soon as they have 50.1% of the vote, ALL freedoms will be extinguished. They are filling our cities with Trojan muslims who will kill our country just as surely with their vote as with weapons. This is a Judeo-Christian country and we ought to be asking ourselves why so many muslims are coming here when they hate us so much. The answer is that this is an invasion. Death from within. I pity future generations because today’s Americans don’t have the guts to put a stop to it. Better practice screaming Allah Achbar.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:17 pmof course he won’t apologize…..
find out the background and he probably isn’t that far from being a nazi/zionist. do you all think bushy is a friend of the muslims. pp, pf, pft, pft. HELL NO. he is slaughtering thousands of their people for absolutely no reason……ooops yes, it’s for oil. all of the iraqis fighting are NOT ‘bad guys’ they are defending themselves in the slaughter of their own. so goode go suck another dick and gorgy porgy start watching how you classify ‘turrrhists’because the only terrorist i know of is you.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:20 pmAshenShard,
You’re a hypocrite. It’s ok in your mind for Muslims to live under Sharia law, but God forbid people in Alabama want to live under Biblical law you would be the 1st one bitching an moaning.
People should all live under the same laws of that country. No special treatment or laws for anyone!
Jay Randal,
December 20th, 2006 at 4:20 pmIf this country was under Religios rule, why are you allowed to post. Why do I have religious freedom. Grow up and stop being hystreical.
Wow. So an elected member of congress has decided he won’t represent any Muslims in his district. Quick question - what if the Muslim is an American citizen and requires the assistance of his or her elected representative? Should the congressperson be able to pick and choose whom he works for? That doesn’t sound right to me. Representatives are elected to work for their constituancies, not a religous movement. It is weak thinking which has brought us to this place. As a pharmacist may or may not decide to fill your prescription (based on the pharmacists beliefs), now a congressperson is putting up notice those citizens he would not want to represent. If people who work for us (congress) cannot do their jobs, then we should force them to resign their office. All US citizens need to be represented - I think it is in the Constitution.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:21 pmJorge: satirical genius or 5th grader? I’m giving 3:1 odds to 5th grader.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:22 pmAdherents of Islam (Muslims) want to destroy non-believers. As in, most of the U.S. Wake up people! Look what’s happening in Iraq - the Shiites and Shias are killing each other in a most BRUTAL fashion because of their difference of opinion on religion. Please read and understand their teachings. Mohammed was no different than Hitler. He would rather see a million people die rather than have a hair on his own head harmed. Jesus, on the other hand, would die for the lowliest, piece of trash human. So, whom would you prefer to follow? Because the Muslims will not stop until they dominate the world. Look at how they treat their women! Look how they treat each other! They’re like the Borg - stop ‘em now or watch our children get slaughtered.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:23 pm#55….
December 20th, 2006 at 4:23 pmthe word christian could be substitued for the word muslim throughout your post, and there would not be a lick of difference.
And, for your information, the real objection this particular Virginia legislator has to Muslims, is that:
THEY DON’T USE TOBACCO!!!
Yeah Jay, stop being “hystreical.”
December 20th, 2006 at 4:24 pmHey DRxJ,
Don’t quote me out of context now. I clearly said:
Fu*k You!
Heh.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:24 pmHmmmmm?
December 20th, 2006 at 4:24 pmIt’s strange how we seem to Tolerate the confronational behavior of the so-called “conservatives”…or “Christians” even though they have NO concept of Foregiveness..Love..empathy…the Hallmarks of Jesus..as in “let he who is without sin “.
I am SO sick of these people getting away with turning ANY debate into a personal attack…in the media..everywhere…I think it’s time we begin a campaign to call them what they are..
In this regard we must find a “term” or “title” that fits..that can catch on..that adequately describes the Pattern..
I hereby throw down a gauntlet…
How about “Stubborn Stupids” (the S.S.?)
Or maybe ..as they seem to love labels..how about “ChristoFascists”
Or one I’ve heard before, but I still like..”Repugnicans”
I would like to paraphrase a statement that just..chrystalized..for me…their very NATURE.
‘..To understand Stupid people well…you must first understand that, their minds are not PHYSICALLY crippled…it’s just that they have CHOSEN to be STUPID..because that offers ITS OWN KIND OF POWER. To win a great many small contests of will, they need only to ignore ALL EVIDENCE. Bright people will BREAK DOWN trying to argue with them…’
Sounds right.
Speaking of Evidence..
Some interesting Data…regarding the so-called “Red States” Their very Nature, once recorded, becomes FACT..”Proof” or Evidence of the ACTUAL Wisdom and Behaviours of these people. A recent book compiled ALL the state and national data regarding Social, Financial, Cultural patterns..what do you know..Red States are the LEADERS..the TOP 10 in the following categories..
HIGHEST INCARCERATION
HIGHEST FEMALE INCARCERATION
HIGHEST NUMBER OF EXECUTIONS
HIGHEST RATE OF DEATH BY FIREARMS
HIGHEST RATES OF SUICIDE
HIGHEST GROSSING GAMING MARKETS (although
New Jersey is #2)
HIGHEST POVERTY RATE
HIGHEST DIVORCE RATES (”family values”)
HIGHEST ILLEGITIMACY RATES
HIGHEST PERCENTAGE OF OBESITY
HIGHEST ILLITERACY RATES
Oh yeah..the Highest rate of College Graduates? of the top 10 are EIGHT are BLUE..
The FACT is, they don’t have the “Right” to attack us..while THEY live in Denial.
Seperation of Church and State…before it’s too late!
#55 Bil
Continue being paranoid and you will never realize how wrong you are. I said it before, I’ll say it again, the same thing was said about the influx of Irish Catholics in the 19th century… conservatives said their religion was not compatible with being American because they would take orders from a single man, the Pope. Did the Catholic Church ever take over our country? no. anyway, your scenario has no possibility of happening … what, 90% of our country is christian? and immigrants from mexico and other hispanic nations are coming to our country even faster, so even if it was an ‘invasion’ by Islam, there is nothing to worry about.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:24 pmOh yeah, and it is just as cult like christianity, judaism or any other religion.
Bil,
December 20th, 2006 at 4:25 pmOnly the Notheast will and Northwest will fall to Islam. The rest of the country made up of Patriotic Democrats, Redneck Republicans, Blacks, Mexicans and Cubasn will resist and stop the Caliphate.
New York will be New Mecca and the call to prayer will be yealled from the Emppire state building!
But in Free america, we’ll still have secular law. It won’t be a complete loss!
I agree with him. And I think we should keep out Christians too! And Jews of course.
No religious fruitcakes of any sort should be allowed anywhere in the United States. Especially not in Congress.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:26 pm#57, did i ever say it was wrong for people in Alabama to live under Biblical law? no i did not, so rather than putting words in my mouth i think you should ask what i believe about that rather than making assumptions. Thats what people who think do.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:27 pmIf anyone wants to live under religious laws that is their choice. Laws of the nation, however, come first but should not specifically target a person of a given religion. Religion itself has no place in government, which ideally should be void of religious symbolism, etc.
Only the Notheast will and Northwest will fall to Islam.
Comment by Jorge
I already have a burkha in my hall closet, just in case.
Jorge, you don’t have to live your life in fear.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:30 pmActually Raven, Arabs, a great many of which are likely Muslims (though I am not sure that a distinction is clear in this thread) use lots of tobacco. Egypt has a thriving tobacco trade.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:31 pmThe real funny thing about Jesus and the morality that christians spout off about was actually supposed to apply only to Jews. Love thy neighbour was love thy jewish neighbour. But of course that and much more, has been lost in translation.
Morality is a part of human beings just as sexual desire is. It has been proven that religion is not needed for morality. Humans don’t have to think that some eye in the sky is watching them. Morality grows as humans evolve. Just look at slavery for example. Up until recently slavery was encouraged but today it is simply understood to be wrong - and not just in one country but around the world.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:31 pmIt seems like organized religion, it’s misuse by it’s leaders and followers is really the problem here. Maybe it’s time to update our collective way of thinking and evolve. Is there war in heaven?
December 20th, 2006 at 4:32 pmAshenShard,
December 20th, 2006 at 4:32 pmTher’s a big difference between Mexican, Irish and Muslims.
I mean what’re we gonna celebrate, Jihad day?
No group should be given special treatment.
Can somebody call up Karl Rove to tell him to hire more intelligent trolls for the TP threads! Pudgy Rove can at least hire ones that can spell correctly > lol.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:32 pm#60 lunky
Christians act in the same way … remember the wars between protestant and catholic? the civil war in england?
December 20th, 2006 at 4:33 pmand as for the muslim treatment of women, how much different is that from the christians?
AshenShard,
”
Laws of the nation, however, come first but should not specifically target a person of a given religion. Religion itself has no place in government, which ideally should be void of religious symbolism, etc. ”
So why do you support Sharia law for Muslims. Doesn’t that contradict your point?
December 20th, 2006 at 4:33 pmJorge, you don’t have to live your life in fear.
Comment by Zooey
Well said, college girl :)
December 20th, 2006 at 4:34 pm“No group should be given special treatment.” Of course jorge wouldn’t include christians as a group. The very definition of bigot.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:35 pm#73 Jorge
And no group should be singled out for their religion. let muslims be muslims, catholics be catholics, jews be jews. if a christian can be american, if a jew can be american, than so can a muslim.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:35 pmWhen I was a kid I used to believe that our representatives where intelligent and thoughtful people.
Boy was I wrong. We would probably be better off as a nation if we only elected cab drivers and hair-stylists.
Surely we have a few good statesmen in Congress, somewhere… I’ll let ya’ll know if I discover one.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:37 pmEctoEndoMezo,

I was making an assumption about the Virginia legislators perceptions……
#76 Jorge
It doesn’t, if they want to follow Sharia law they should be able to. Its following their religion … its like, say, a christian following the 10 commandments. is it a crime in our country to commit adultery? of course not, but it is a crime in christianity.
but this is not to say that someone born into a religion should be forced to follow that law. following religious law should be left as a personal spiritual choice, unlike following secular federal law, which is an obvious requirement.

#58 Tom -
Should the congressperson be able to pick and choose whom he works for? That doesn’t sound right to me. Representatives are elected to work for their constituencies, not a religous movement.
And you don’t think this is going on at all levels of our goverernment? Looks to me like the environmentalists have lost out to the oil and utility companies, real science has lost out to evangelicals, intelligence and reality have lost out to Neocons, etc.
What a legacy the Bushcos have left us!!!
December 20th, 2006 at 4:39 pmGood heavens, the nutjobs are out today, aren’t they?
As a Christian, I have no fear of Muslims taking over the country, or of anyone else for that matter. My biggest concern at the moment is that I’m tired of having to defend MY religion because of all the “crazy Christians” out there spouting this nonsense. And if this isn’t racism, I don’t know what is.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:40 pmGood googely goo there’s some moronic trolls on board today! Jorge, what the hell is a ‘Hispamnic’.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:42 pmI haven’t read the other comments yet, but this is the type of person who would fit very comfortably back in Nazi Germany. And it’s also exactly why it COULD happen here!
December 20th, 2006 at 4:42 pmRadical Christians and Muslims alike are all disgusting and despicable. The problem with Goode is that he doesn’t think so.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:42 pm“What is this? Weird-assed troll day on TP?”
I think the christian college kids are home for the holidays.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:42 pmThere is no paranoia there. The muslims have an agenda. They cannot be compared to mainstream Christians or Jews at all. Sure, there are right wings in both, but the majority is not silent out of fear for their lives. Muslims are. Most Christian churches accept homosexuals, muslims believe they should be killed. Most Christian churches think it is okay that your God might be called Budah or Allah or even Ra. Muslims believe that if your God is any other than Allah, you should be killed. I’ve read the Koran. It is as crystal clear as anything ever written and there is a vast number of people who take this document in a literal sense. It is absolutely frightening.
Look, let them have the middle east. Stay there. We shouldn’t want to go there. By the way, did you know that if you travel to most of the muslim countries and have a Bible in your luggage, it will be confiscated? I’ve lost several that way.
We allow religious freedom, but at the caveat that is should and must be seperate from the government. Sharia is the government application of Koranic law. Most muslims are fine with it. No thinking non-muslim should be fine with it.
This country was built on freedom. Islam is counter to freedom. It is an unforgiving religion. This is not bigotry, it is observation and study. I’m pretty liberal in most areas, but in this one, I can see us losing everything that this country is. Just listen to their leaders, particularly coming out of Iran. It’s there to see and hear. Pay attention.
The time to do something is now, not later. If we don’t, then it is a matter of time before we’ll be dealing with this in the streets. Look at the riots that were caused by cartoons. A cartoon? People died over something like that. If that doesn’t get your attention, nothing will. Not even Salmon Rushdie being put under a death sentence by some ayatollah.
The only good thing about this whole problem is that it is bound to drive all the races in America together to defend America.

December 20th, 2006 at 4:46 pmHypocrisy 101 as related to U.S. History
Separation of Church and State - FALSE
Our “nearly” perfect form of Gorvenment - FALSE (sorry founding fathers, but corruption is ubiquitous.)
All men are created equal - FALSE (slavery)
And the ONLY thing that pulled the South up from it’s chronic state of depression was through the FREE labor of slaves (who helped build the railroads too.) And whites bitch about affirmative action?
You see “Whore-hay”, I’ve met Europeans too (and Australians, and Japanese.) I’ve travelled around the World and learned a great deal about how the rest of the World views our infant (in historical perspective) country. In three words we are, Arrogant, Narcicistic and Prejudice.
We are NOT liked by every other country, except Mexico. Your “type” is the face of their hatred, not mine.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:46 pmYou guys just don’t get it. They want to impose Sharia law on all of us. C.A.I.R has stated that they want the US to be an Islamic state. But you guys are delusional losers who complain about everything.

Jorge, go back to being a fetus, so maybe you can be born again.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:51 pmMaybe this time you’ll be raised decently.
Bil, good comments. The problem is people like Goode fight against islam by using christianity and say things like “We are a christian nation with christian laws.” That is just wrong. We have secular laws and everyone living in the US must conform to those laws and no religion can impose laws based on their beliefs.
December 20th, 2006 at 4:51 pmGee..Brilliant response..this is by definition a “small contest of will..” much more important to you that you simply WIN…and the only way for that to happen is for you to simply A: ATTACK or B: Ignore the Evidence…
December 20th, 2006 at 4:52 pmYou are simply..not making ANY sense…and by the way..when I was born..abortion was NOT LEGAL..so that choice was not really available…idiot..but you just keep attacking..go ahead and prove the point…you will eventually be put into a Jar for people to stare in wonder at…”yes folks..this here used to be known as a ChristoFascist..they were a relatively influential group of angry, stupid people that thrived in America at one time..”
Yup! that is your fate Moron..”The Angry Fool”
So..attack..attack..tora..tora..tora..
See folks..This is the REALITY of UNITY…the “Uniter not a Devider” that these swine worship..well..the REALITY Of UNITY is on the streets and Highway’s of America…this …ceature..this STUBBORN STUPID (S.S.) is the same person who zips right up to the crosswalk while people are crossing…who does 45 through a residential neighborhood..
And for emphasis..notice that HE/SHE DOES NOT ADDRESS ANY “POINT” JUST …..ATTACKS…can you imagine if this were the method of debate in a court of law? or …anywhere for that matter..just ATTACK the person you disagree with..well..bully tactics are the HALLMARK of the Christo Fascists….the new S.S.
The data on RED STATE conditions is becoming known…
JUST REMEMBER MARK RADER..THE BTK KILLER..A PETTY BUREAUCRAT( would fine people for their lawns being unmowed) A SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHER, AND….A SADISTIC RAPIST AND KILLER…

December 20th, 2006 at 4:53 pmI’ll take Bush over Mahmoud Ahmadinejad any day!
All the religious nutjobs need to ascend to their respective gods and leave the Earth to the rational folks. That goes for Goode and Ellison and every other politician nutcake swearing oaths to uphold my precious, godless Constitution while clutching their f-ing holy books. Good grief.

I voted for Gore over Bush and I disagree with him on almost everything. But I’ll take him and the Religious Right anyday over Islamic rule. I can argue with the Religious Right. With Islam, they would kill me that’s the diffrence. But most of the people here Rich, spoiled Ostrich Leftists that belive in Political Correctness crap!

“Yea, and Dems and Repubs are Nerds, NERDS!!!
Yea man, is this like cool or what?”
Gee, are we out of Middle School yet, Beavis?
December 20th, 2006 at 5:01 pmYikes - your partly right. Our laws ARE based on Christian teachings, that’s what the framers knew. Goode may be saying that as an easy way of saying it, but I’d bet he understands the seperation of church and state.
As for the muslims coming here from muslim counties, my goodness, is it really an attempt to escape religious persecution? Interesting concept that they would flee their country because their own religion persecutes them. The guy that thought that one up better sit down and think about it.
December 20th, 2006 at 5:02 pmI would like to ask anyone who believes that the USA is a “Judeo-Christian” country please supply evidence in the form of something from the Founding Fathers era. This is, and always has been, a SECULAR nation. Too bad if you don’t like it. Also, it’s pretty ignorant to think that with just 50.1% of the vote, all of our constitutionally-guaranteed freedoms can be taken away. One would have to amend the COnstitution to do that, and that takes 3/4 of the states, considerably more than “50.1%”. Ignorant.
#97 Jorge,
“You guys just don’t get it. They want to impose Sharia law on all of us. C.A.I.R has stated that they want the US to be an Islamic state.
I admit that I am no expert on either religion or the groups that support them, but my understanding is that Muslims are expected (under Islamic law) to obey the laws of the country they are in at the time. (I’ve heard Muslim basketball players mention that.) If this is true, then why would CAIR say “that they want the US to be an Islamic state”? That sounds inconsistent. Do you have support for your claims about CAIR’s “goals”?
Thank you.
December 20th, 2006 at 5:02 pmWhen Hillary is President she’ll deal with the Islamic threat more effectively since the media will back here. They won’t go afyter here the way, they go after Bush. That’s the advantage us Dems have. Plus all these blogs will support us when Hillary attacks Iran so everyone here will change their toon.

What? Sorry, but in Mexico we also do NOT like US. :)
Seriously, DNFP, one thing are governments and another completely, citizens. Of course there are a lot or prejudices, in particular in Mexico regarding US citizens which are seen as being dumb, wealthy and agressive. But all US citizens Ive met were easy-going and nice.
I have one anecdote about prejudices. I was like 12 and we were, my parents and brothers, in Puerto Vallarta, a mexican beach. Then a german couple began talking with my parents about Pablo Neruda, I dont know why. When I found later that the couple were german I asked my father: how do you know if they are not Nazis? And he answered: If they read Neruda, they cant be Nazis.
The only way to know people is by knowing them, talking and passing time with them.

December 20th, 2006 at 5:16 pmAnother fact Filled rebuttal from “jorge” we must be striking a nerve…the attacks just keep coming..example: he obviously see’s anyone who he can’t bully to his way of “thinking” (Stubborn Stupid)..he see’s them/us…ohhh so clearly…in his….chrystal ball? how exactly does he know who or what we are…financially..culturally..how does that work again…
OHHHHHH! right now I recall..we…disagree with him…the poor little stubborn stupid…he just can’t accept ANY other point of view…poor li’l guy…poor li’l beastie..or Petit’ bet…(little beast)
Yes…yes…it’s a cryin shame these little beasts are so abundant…perhaps a …”Breeding program” is in order…perhaps Mr. Goode might oversee such a program..or some oterh intolerant.
Which brings me to my final point…there is a subtle but very important difference between “Progressives” and “NeoCons” (as specific from traditional Conservatives..what would Barry Goldwater have thought of Der Jorge Beast?)
The difference is this..I/WE “progressives” must by definition “Tolerate” the Jorge’s of the world…but there is a conflict there: While we Tolerate them..we refuse to Tolerate the one aspect…of NeoCon “BASE” which is….”Intolerance” this is a quandry..
The “solution” is complicated…but basically..while they have no mandate to Tolerance..and we do..but we draw the line at being “overtaken” as a result of the NeoCon Powerful Political Intolerance…in other words if they could, they would stamp out ALL disagreement..and that..unfortunately…cannot be tolerated..and yet..we must allow their views to be given equal time…again..a quandry..and again the difference is that we would never go to the extreme of TERMINATING dissent…while daily..the evidence mounts..that “They” would do so…in a heart beat….what to do?…what to do?
Admittedly a little confusing..and I apologize for that…but hopefully you get the idea…
And jorge? you are seriously flawed…you simply cannot allow any one to “win” once you have made up your tiny, intolerant mind…and that is rediculous..if you were rational..you would not incur the wrath..but rational debate is not a SMALL CONFLICT OF WILL..which you need..otehrwise you might need some FACTS..and ………….then what?

you aren’t a moderate, you are a conservative … everything you say is a neocon talking point in one form or another.

Available in older posts section for free and at absolutely no charge. You have to read the whole thread to appreciate it.It`s a real gem.
Not so fast;I have one thing I’d like to add to this discussion.
Atleast twice in the last 50 posts,unbelievable said that she ‘doesn’t lie’.
Yet she told me,thus everyone else on this blog,last spring,that her Mother was dead.This turned out NOT to be TRUE.
Now answer your own question: What kind of person would say that about their own Mother just for the sake of winning an argument?
Now you all are beginning to see why I’ve had such acrimony with her in the past.
Just for the record,BnF, I never,ever,insulted her Mother,that’s if you were referring to something I might have said.
She told me her Mom was dead after I said she probably lives at home with her Mom.
All this can be found in the archives.
This is who you are dealing with,and she has no respect.

Comment by unbelievable â€
amen to that!!! (care to put the hypothesis to a test? —just kidding…)
Perhaps it is Unbelievable who is envious of my spirituality. She has derided the thought of breathing a cloud away, yet I’ve taught others to do so as well.
Perhaps she was offended because I was just kidding. After all, I have mentioned on these boards that I wear a kilt. And you know what they say about a woman scorned. I mean, to take what I wrote and somehow twist that into insinuating that I, a married man, was interested in having an adulterous affair with someone who lives a couple of thousand miles away takes either dimentia, a great imagination, or wishful thinking.
And Trueblue, as you can see, a shaman would say “Amen.â€

And as much as I think some of these conservative-minded visitors are delusional nutjobs, I have done my best to refrain from directly attacking them, or suggesting that they ingest certain bodily fluids.
I have to ask: Is this new policy still in effect? Or are we now allowed to say ignorant, ridiculous things like:

December 20th, 2006 at 5:30 pmWhat’s with this obsession with having people apologize? Who cares? It means nothing. Apologies are worthless. If you want to make the guy pay the vote his bigoted ass out of office or storm his house. But some wimpy apology from a coward, who cares?

I agree with Juan. Let’s ignore this person and their sockpuppets already.
This vile, ignorant troll has been given a whole lot more attention than they deserve.
