He's the kind of guy you'd imagine rushing up to Clinton, breathlessly saying: "You need to pose with Mr. Potato Head. You're the last Democrat to do this." She complied. picked by chelcho 11 months ago

 Muslim opening prayer at Iowa Statehouse raises concerns
Muslim opening prayer at Iowa Statehouse raises concerns
This doesn't appear to be a case of "Islamophobia". When translated among the prayers made by the Imam to the Iowa Legislature were statements like: "Victory over those who disbelieve," and "Protection from the great Satan" Those who disbelieve is most of us. Islam has long called America "The Great Satan" picked by 2manyusernames 10 months ago
