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
Her allegiance is to the quran which is in direct conflict with the law of OUR land, the U.S. Constitution! She has no business being a judge in the USA! This is a travesty and an attempt to force sharia…there will be no justice in her court unless it’s savage sharia.
This is America………..we take the oath on the bible!!!! No other book!!!!!
the day will come when she will ansywer for this
We can start kiss America goodby.
Don Johnson I agree people should choose what they follow as a religion. THIS COUNTRY and I say again THIS was founded on biblical, Holy Bible Truths….You are right though you have a choice to choose what religion you follow. When you take a Oath of Office that is based on the Holy Bible then you should believe in that office. If you don’t believe in that office find another job.
thats just sorryness
Shane it was NOT founded on “holy bible truths”. If there were “holy bible truths” meaning facts then you wouldn’t need FAITH to believe them. There are holy bible stories that christians want to be true.
She did her job as a lawyer without her religion being a problem didn’t she? So now you are suggesting that she cannot be a judge in the same court room she was a lawyer? That makes NO Sense. She can believe in the office while still taking the Oath with a qu’ran. You know why? Because her religion, whether she is muslim, jew, hindu, or christians should have NOTHING TO DO WITH HER DOING HER JOB! She is a judge…and has to upold the laws of this country…and the laws of this country are in the constitution not the bible.
Then it means nothing in America.
May I suggest you find the video and listen to it!!!
Teresa please tell me THIS is not your “evidence” that the POTUS invoked Satan. Seriously, how old are you? This is about as convincing as playing “I got your nose” with a baby. (HINT: You don’t actually remove the baby’s nose, but they think you did because you said so.)
