CAIR slaps Herman Cain over Sharia law comments

Herman Cain has drawn fire from a Muslim advocacy group after he slammed Sharia law and the spread of the Muslim faith in America.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) accused Cain of "bigoted speech" after the Atlanta businessman told a blogger that he would not appoint a Muslim to his cabinet or as a federal judge if elected president.

Asked whether there would be a place for a Muslim appointee in Cain's administration, Cain flatly said "No."

CAIR would be smart to simply ignore Mr. Cain. The last thing they want is to give him traction and see him as the next black president - who sure as hell ain’t going to apologize for being American or defending America.

What is more bigoted; opposing an oppressive legal system or supporting a legal system that oppresses?

When CAIR, the women on The View and Nancy Pelosi spit on the ground at the mention of your name, you’re doing something right.

One can tell how close a person is to the truth by how loud the opposition screams. He is dead on right...dead to those US citizens that are not paying attention to the Muslims.

CAIR slaps Herman Cain over Sharia law comments

The headline represents an exercise in wish fulfillment for the "objective journolists" at Politico.

From the article (and edited by me for clarity):
Ibrahim Hooper, the Council on American-Islamic Relations' national communications director said, "Even post 9/11 you didn't have this level of mainstreaming of anti-Muslim hate as you have now."
Mr Hooper, I suspect you ain't seen nothin' yet. Your Sharia law and our Judeo-Christian beliefs on which this country is founded are completely, totally and forever incompatible. Consider yourself damned lucky we put up with your BS.

“How dreadful are the curses which Mohammedanism lays on its votaries! Besides the fanatical frenzy, which is as dangerous in a man as hydrophobia in a dog, there is this fearful fatalistic apathy.

The effects are apparent in many countries. Improvident habits, slovenly systems of agriculture, sluggish methods of commerce, and insecurity of property exist wherever the followers of the Prophet rule or live.

A degraded sensualism deprives this life of its grace and refinement; the next of its dignity and sanctity. The fact that in Mohammedan law every woman must belong to some man as his absolute property, either as a child, a wife, or a concubine, must delay the final extinction of slavery until the faith of Islam has ceased to be a great power among men.

Individual Moslems may show splendid qualities, but the infence of the religion paralyzes the social development of those who follow it.

No stronger retrograde force exists in the world. Far from being moribund, Mohammedanism is a militant and proselytizing faith.

It has already spread throughout Central Africa, raising fearless warriors at every step; and were it not that Christianity is sheltered in the strong arms of science, the science against which it had vainly struggled, the civilization of modern Europe might fall, as fell the civilization of ancient Rome.”

Sir Winston Churchill (The River War, first edition, Vol. II, pages 248-50, London: Longmans, Green & Co., 1899).

CAIR aren't knee-jerk liberals.

They're jihadis, terrorists, and the unindicted co-conspirator in the Hamas fundraising case.



They should be declared a subversive organization and their leaders and membership jailed.

Sharia law has no place in America. Sharia law is unconstitutional.

You should never capitalize the word “mohamed” or “mohammedanism” or “prophit”!
