When Thomas Jefferson obtained a Koran (spelled Quran by the pretentious set) he was looking to see what it was all about. Before he became President, Jefferson was an ambassador along with John Adams. America at that time, was beset by some Islamic radicals your history books sometimes refer to as the Barbary Coast pirates.
They met with an ambassador from Tripoli and this polite chap informed them:
“That’s what we do. We are commanded to do so by Allah.” Jefferson later wrote that the Tripoli ambassador told him, “It was written in their Koran that all nations which had not acknowledged the Prophet were sinners, whom it was the right and duty of the faithful to plunder and enslave; and that every mussulman (Muslim) who was slain in this warfare was sure to go to Paradise.”
Things were so much different then.
Speed up this hyper-enlightened post 9/11 era and we can’t get enough of officials getting sworn in on a book that Jefferson once obtained to learn about extremists murdering our sailors.
Rep. Keith Ellison was sworn in on Jefferson’s own Koran, as if this was some latent dream of the Founding Fathers. Most well read people were in on the joke and understood the moxy Rep. Ellison was showing by swearing in on the one book that was used to craft our defense of the first American attacks from Jihadists.
No one knew better except a few Glenn beck listeners and who cares anyway? The Koran is just like the Bible, etc…
Now we have an actual judge showcased just to provoke a reaction.
See page two for the Koran swearing judge
That’s not what I said. Take it any way you want.
I Do Not Follow The Advancements Obama Say’s Because He Is Not My President No More,,,, Fuk Him and His Muslims Followers…
TinaLouise you said she needed to “swear to god”. And she is swearing to god (the one she believes in). You seem to say that she needs to swear to the christian god…in order to do that she would have to BE A christian. And you say that if she doesn’t do this she shouldn’t be a judge.
I don’t know any other way to take that other than you think only christians should be allowed to hold public office.
Trump will take care of this traitor also
America doesn’t “go by the bible or the torah” either. It governed by the constitution…in case you forgot.
UnConstitutional,not legally a judge !!!!!!!!!!!!!.
Obama was sworn in on the Quran. I knew we were lost then.
Our country is becoming a total mess. What a joke.
That doesn’t count in America !!!
she is no judge.
