Wow! Incredible level of ignorance in 2006. Shocking!
Muslims will not leave. They need not leave. They are integral members of this society and will remain so for a long time.
Go to school and take a few classes instead of being glued to FoxNews.

Mr Goode revives the antiquated paranoia of the Know-Nothings back in the 1800's. Paranoia of Catholics immigrants giving america to the Pope.
LOL
Lincoln identified Goode's paranoid ilk.
"As a nation, we begin by declaring that "all men are created equal." We now practically read it "all men are created equal, except negroes." When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read "all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners, and catholics." When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretence of loving liberty-to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocracy."

Well, Lincoln is known for rightfully emancipating the blacks if that is what you were referring to. It is also known that he was not necesarily an abolitionist
He was also a master politician...
What exactly he did depends on who you ask...

No I was not talking about black emancipation nor Lincoln's political accumen.
You dodge the point or now nothing about the Know-Nothings
I presented Lincoln's thoughts on the absolutely paranoid position of the Know-Nothings at that time and it should be taken in the context of Lincoln the American not the Politician. Regardless the man had these people pegged right.
Goode's position revives that same paranoia that the Know-Nothings had, albeit this time against a different target. They were worried about immigrants and Catholics in Government...Just as Goode is driving fear and paranoia here with Muslims. Seriously. 1 Muslim gets elected but constituants in a congressional district, chooses to swear in on a religious book he wishes and Goode goes into some paranoid Bat Shit fear mongering about Muslims in the US Govt.
Goode is a fear mongering idiot...just as the Know-Nothings were back then.

Also Joe, I am over in Iraq right now and to no end Goode's bullshit pisses me off.
We are over here now trying to convince the Iraqi's to include ALL in Govt and work together regardless of religion in a secular Government. I presume we would also wish for the Iraqi's and every other Middle Eastern country to include their Christian populations and other non-Muslim denominations. (There were approx 1 million Christian Iraqis in Iraq before 2003...I am sure that number is diminished as many have left Iraq)
Goodes position undermines my job over here.

So our choices are limited to Muslim intolerance of all other religions or Christians intolerance of all other religions? Ahmad's intolerance is relected in your intolerance. Neither of you represent the majority view of your respective relgions.
Religious tolerance is possible. Our country is built on it. Be an American. Be tolerant.

"Neither of you represent the majority view of your respective relgions.

First, The majority is not always right (ie. Politics for example).
Second, that's the beauty of America. We can have and hold our opinions. Being "tolerant " of the most intolerant religion on earth is as illogical as it is ill-fated.

And Christianity has been most tolerant?
There was a time I would say that Christianity was more intolerant than Islam.
When will the flailing armed chicken little sheeple recognize that it is paranoid radicals of the left, right, every color and denomination that are America's and humanity's biggest threat?
