World's Greatest Fuck You Ever
In November, Keith Ellison of Minnesota became the first Muslim elected to Congress. Ellison then told the press that he would swear his oath on a Koran and all hell broke loose.
Conservative commentators went ape shit because they incorrectly believe the oath should be taken on something called The Bible. The controversy swelled when a fellow Congressman, Virgil Goode, declared:
"When I raise my hand to take the oath on Swearing In Day, I will have the Bible in my other hand. I do not subscribe to using the Koran in any way. The Muslim Representative from Minnesota was elected by the voters of that district and if American citizens don't wake up and adopt the Virgil Goode position on immigration there will likely be many more Muslims elected to office and demanding the use of the Koran."
Ellison was born in the United States and his family roots in this country can be traced back to 1742. None of that mattered to Goode, who became a hero on Fox News where he claimed that he stands for the principles upon which this country was founded. Goode represents the same Virginia county where Thomas Jefferson was born in 1743.
Which is probably why Ellison decided to shove Goodes morals down his ignorant throat throat with a little American history. Today Keith Ellison announced he would take his oath of office on a Koran that was owned by Thomas Jefferson.
Jefferson's copy is an English translation by George Sale published in the 1750s; it survived the 1851 fire that destroyed most of Jefferson's collection and has his customary initialing on the pages.
It survived the fire because God wanted it to be used in a future go fuck yourself moment. Goode has no comment.
Hero Stands Up To Future Muslim Nightmare
Virgil Goode, a Virginian Representative in the US House, isnt afraid to stand up and fight for America. Goode wrote a letter to his constituents to explain his concerns about the possibility of Muslim hordes living in our sweet country. He was reacting to the frightening controversy over the first Muslim being elected to the House and deciding to be sworn in on the Koran.
In his letter, Goode warns Americans that the US has to close its borders in order to guard against the Muslim hordes. If not, there will be more Muslims and those Muslims will be elected to Congress. Goode goes on to narrate an incident that occurred in his Washington office recently. It seems a Muslim student stopped by and asked him why he did not have the Koran up next to the Ten Commandments on his wall. Goode was not amused because he loves God. He claims he told the punk:
"As long as I have the honor of representing the citizens of the 5th District of Virginia in the United States House of Representatives, The Koran is not going to be on the wall of my office."
He really set that fictional student straight. And may I say, it is about time fictional students like him were put in their place. Goode is fighting the good fight in other ways also, having proposed an amendment to the Constitution to make English the official language of the US. He believes that if things continue on the current path we could end up like Canada. Which, I think is bad?
Here is the full text of the letter.
Thank you for your recent communication. When I raise my hand to take the oath on Swearing In Day, I will have the Bible in my other hand. I do not subscribe to using the Koran in any way. The Muslim Representative from Minnesota was elected by the voters of that district and if American citizens dont wake up and adopt the Virgil Goode position on immigration there will likely be many more Muslims elected to office and demanding the use of the Koran. We need to stop illegal immigration totally and reduce legal immigration and end the diversity visas policy pushed hard by President Clinton and allowing many persons from the Middle East to come to this country. I fear that in the next century we will have many more Muslims in the United States if we do not adopt the strict immigration policies that I believe are necessary to preserve the values and beliefs traditional to the United States of America and to prevent our resources from being swamped.
The Ten Commandments and In God We Trust are on the wall in my office. A Muslim student came by the office and asked why I did not have anything on my wall about the Koran. My response was clear, As long as I have the honor of representing the citizens of the 5th District of Virginia in the United States House of Representatives, The Koran is not going to be on the wall of my office. Thank you again for your email and thoughts.
Thank God somebody in Congress cares about America, I was beginning to worry.
