[Just sayin]

You say they "shouldn't" see it that way but the fact is that they do, because that is what they want their underlings to see. Here is a hint, think like them, not like you would.

It's the Muslims fundies that would be drawing it out to far, not me. That would be the point I was making. I guess you missed that in your attempt to make it about me rather than them.

"Would have been cuter if Ellison's wife wore a burka."

I saw one of the news channels while they were setting up these photos.While his wife did not have a burka, one of his sons wore an unusual sash or stole and they carefully positioned him so it would not show. In the last photo he is the third son from the right.

Thanks.

He appears to be a black man who converted to islam.My experience with black moslums hasn't been too good.They are usually like the Farrakhan branch who despise whitey and blame him for everything that is evil.

"Never mind those black folks over there. This is all about ME ME ME. It's always about ME."

I think Ellison is trying to make the point that even Jefferson had a koran, only thing is is that Ole' Tom had it merely to help him better understand his enemies.

[maximusaurelius]

Agreed.

I will now go throw up.

Isn't the left hand considered the "unclean hand" by muslims? If so, Ellison has his "unclean hand" on the Koran...

First I thought Communist, but nah, there are no Commmunists in the US govt.... amd then I had the epiphany that was my last quote.

Lunch was good. :o)

HAppy FReepin'

[Westlander]

Xcellent !

[theDentist]

IS it me or does the Scarecrow's smile look more than a little "forced" and plastic.

What is the (C) by his wife's name? She's not copyrighted is she? ;o)

Based on the article, I think the "(C)" stands for "concubine."

[magslinger]

Is that photoshop your work?

[magslinger]

[drpix]

That's why I took my FR name.

[drpix]

Except the sign of the burka babes - which was from someone else's photoshopped pix. I photoshopped that and several other elements into the final pix.

[magslinger]

I figured out your FReepname after I posted.

The burka babes sign is mine, I took it as a complement that someone had borrowed it and was just curious as to who had done it. I had, after all, borrowed the original photo.

Nice job on the photoshop, by the way.
