		<description>I AGREE WITH THE CONGRESSMAN. I RATHER LIVE  IN A COUNTRY THAT IS RACIST AND ISLAMIPHOMIC THAN LIVE IN A COUNTRY OF MUSLIMS THAT WANT TO CHOP YOUR HEADS OFF. LOOK AT WHAT IS GOING ON IN EUROPE. RADICAL ISLAM IS RUNNING RAMPID. I WAS IN NORTH LONDON NOT LONG AGO AND I THOUGHT I WAS IN IRAN. THE MUSLIM WOMEN HAD THE FULL BLACK ROBES WITH THIER ENTIRE FACES COVERED. THEY HAD MUSLIMS STANDING IN THE STRRETS WITH SIGNS SAYING BOW TO ISLAM OR BE KILLED. HOW STUPID FOR A COUNTRY TO LET ALL OF THESE MUSLIMS IN. NOW ENGLAND IS HAVING TERRORISM RIGHT SNACK IN THEIR OWN BACKYARDS. WAKE UP PEOPLE.</description>

		<description>Who here is brave enough to answer the question that Virgil Goode ducked?  Remember, 40 years ago, there were NO Middle-Eastern Muslims who were US citizens.  Remember that the quota of Middle-Eastern immigrants too the US is determined arbitrarily by the ICE.  Rememeber that allowing in more Middle Easterners means allowing in fewer Latinos, Southeast Asians, Africans, or Pacific Islanders.  Therefore, who of you is brave enough to say: do we have enough, or shouyld we have more?

Remember, you have to give an answer and remain free of the taint of &quot;racism&quot;.  Now for the grand prize, for all you non-racists:

What was wrong with the America of Norman Rockwell, that was 97% Christian and 3% Jewish, that it need changing, as a deliberate act of policy, anyway?</description>

		<description>Sometimes I like to tune in to a &quot;You&#039;re a Great American&quot;network of like-minded thinkers( not mentioning any  names-- rhymes with  Dawn Vanity) just to see what their up to.  Barrack O&#039;Bama should be aware that the character asassinators are out in full force.  The script calls for the ignorant, stupid callers(I mean plantzz ) to call-in and ask Vanity if Barrack O&#039;bama is a Muslim? Vanity, pretending to be as dumb like a Foxey newsman that he is, answers &quot;I don&#039;t know&quot;.  So they&#039;re all hopping on the bash O&#039;bama and any other O&#039;sama, Saddam sounding  name etc. This is their new mission. It is not hard to figure out these subliminal fools.  All they got to do is put one tiny little bit of cheese out there for the masses and BAM! Got another one in the cheesy trap.</description>

		<description>Minnesotan, take heart as we Vermonters feel the same way.  It&#039;s ironic that Virginia home of &quot;Founding Fathers&quot; Washington, Jefferson, Madison;William &amp; Mary and UVA etc., can send someone like Goode to Washington.  It is &quot;Southside&quot; Virginia, however, NASCAR and Tobacco heaven, good &quot;bible thumping&quot; Christians all.

The U.S. House of Representatives&#039; first act of business should be to censure &quot;Not so Goode&quot; and send a message.  Osama&#039;s gotta love this guy.  If ignorance is indeed bliss, Virgil&#039;s one happy cracker.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;&quot;It makes me feel like MN should be part of Canada and not the U.S. I have nothing, nothing, nothing in common with Southerners. &quot;&lt;/em&gt;

What an intriguing idea ...  I would love to be a part of Canada. I have felt less and less that I belong in the U.S. in the last five years.  Let&#039;s swap - the U.S. can get Quebec, (just to torture the South) and MN can go to Canada.</description>

		<description>#164: &lt;em&gt;Minnesota should become South Manitoba.&lt;/em&gt;

I understand why you might feel that way, but we need the relative sanity of Minnesota (well, minus Norm Coleman) to counterbalance the wingnuttery of people like Goode.</description>

		<description>Just learned something today:

The first mosque in the U.S. was built in Ross, North Dakota by middle eastern immigrant farmers.  

Goode is a little slow in complaining since they immigrated over 100 years ago.  But then again Southerners have always been known to be a bit slow.</description>

&lt;em&gt;When Muslins step up and criticize the death culture and wing of their religion, they will begin to be welcomed in the US. Until then, I donâ€™t want to see their number increased. And, neither do the majority of Americans.&lt;/em&gt;

Plenty of them have stepped up and criticized the extremists. What do you want them to do? Write it in blood? And you don&#039;t speak for the majority of Americans on this, so don&#039;t pretend that you do.

&lt;em&gt;And, No. 62, stay out of Tennesse- we donâ€™t want irrational people here.&lt;/em&gt;

You appear to have overstayed your welcome, then.</description>

		<description>&lt;em&gt;Your buddy â€˜jâ€™ aka James Ri[ss]er is a banned troll.He is trolling under many names in his usual obnoxious manner.
&lt;/em&gt;

I know who he is.  j may be obnoxious at times, but he&#039;s not a troll.  

&lt;em&gt;I suspect he might also be â€˜Wolfâ€™, who made a deragatory statement about you.

No, I&#039;m thinking that was that nasty troll vinnie.  Maybe little birdie was vinnie, too?</description>

		<description>You may not like it, but we DO have the freedom of speech in this country. And while you may disagree with this man and what he says,  you should always be ready to defend his right to says it. If the people he represents don&#039;t like him, they will not re-elect him. 

BTW! # 62, please don&#039;t come to Virginia. 

While I was active duty, serving aboards submarines, my sister asked why I did it, After telling her, she asked about all the people who said and did things I disagreed with, and I told her, whether I agree, or disagree with their beliefs, I was always to defend to the death their right to say and believe what they want. (NO I am not talking about people who break laws, murder people and such, I am talking about beliefs, and free speech).

The same holds true now, and while you may disagree with every fiber of your being, you should also defend his right as an AMERICAN to speak freely.</description>

		<description>doug, worse than that: He apparently thinks Democracy can be &quot;enforced&quot; via immigration. 

Being ignorant as he is, he apparently doesn&#039;t realize that many Muslins are (gasp!) born here and thus American Citizens. 

Next Stop on his bus: Segregate based on Religion...</description>

		<description>â€œbut I am for restricting immigration so that we donâ€™t have a majority of Muslims elected to the United States House of Representatives.â€

Does he believe &quot;democracy&quot; ought to be restricted by controlling those who are allowed to vote to the constituency he prefers?

Perhaps this is why there are so many prisoners in USA jails?  

Perhaps this is why the Republicans want to restict latino immigration?  

Perhaps this is why the US administration is for finger printing and &quot;eye&quot; recognition for visas and immigration?

Perhaps Bushco&#039;s whole conspiracy theory that the USA is in great danger and must be defended, at all costs, till the last voter dangerous to their dictatorial control is diabolded out of sight or otherwise eliminated is because they believe that &quot;democracy&quot; ought to be restricted by controlling those who are allowed to vote to the constituency their preference?</description>

		<description>For many in MN this whole national story about Ellison is just laughable.  While a few rednecks here in MN have been vocal about Ellsion&#039;s religion, it has been mostly no big deal.   Watching the national story unfold on wacko cable news and on blogs is just kinda weird. 

It makes me feel like MN should be part of Canada and not the U.S.  I have nothing, nothing, nothing in common with Southerners.  With Canadians it&#039;s hockey, ice, and more tolerance than the U.S. in general.  Sounds like Minnesota to me.

Minnesota should become South Manitoba.</description>
