DNC plans 2-hour Islamic prayer after rejecting blessing from Cardinal

The Democratic National Committee is raising a number of eyebrows after choosing to proceed with hosting Islamic “Jumah” prayers for two hours on the Friday of its convention, though it denied a Catholic cardinal’s request to say a prayer at the same event.

Watch the promotional video, via the Bureau of Muslim Affairs, which is partnering with the DNC for the event.

The first two minutes are rather dry, but around 2:04 a muezzin sings the call to prayer with an American flag background, and the video “picks up” considerably:

Looks like both parties are trying to out-stupid each other.

Well he can’t be.

Marx said you’re not a communist unless you’re an atheist.

So which is it then?

I take solace in the knowledge that these Muslims/Satanists will get their just rewards either in this life or the next.

[massgopguy]

Will DNC delegates be joining in? I believe they say the Shahada three times during a Jumah. Thus converting to Islam.

I understood this about Democrats when I was only 14 years old in 1981.

Are the DNC folk’s planning on putting bags over the head’s of their Jewish voters so nobody knows it’s them?
This could be a ball to watch. Do they rope off an area for the jooos to sit in while security surrounds them?

We must also remember that placing Fluke on the agenda of the Democrats' Convention is a clear poke in the eye of Cardinal Dolan and all other religious freedom advocates of every faith, or no faith!

As at the beginning of her shameful elevation in the politics of the Administration, the matter was never about "contraceptives" or "women's health," it was about assertions of coercive power which are prohibited by the Constitution's Bill of Rights!

Only constitutional illiterates believe it to be otherwise, and Republicans ought to use it as a "teaching moment" for every potential voter, reminding us that when one prong of the First Amendment protections is destroyed, the others are in danger as well.

The DNC should install a big ring full of mud so they can wrassel it out between them.

Now THAT would make the convention interesting

[napscoordinator]

Who writes this? Cardnal Dolan is giving a prayer at the Democratic Convention as well as the Republican convention. Why are they saying otherwise?

Interesting the queer-loving, child-murdering party rejects the American catholic but wholeheartedly embraces the queer-hating, child-murdering muslims.

This article is a lie. These muzzies want you to believe they are part of the Convention and approved by the DNC, but they are not. The Blaze,Erica Ritz and assorted anti-obamites want you to believe it, too. Some google research can show this but most won’t do it. It’s what you want to hear so just mindlessly lap it up! (In previous articles some Freepers have checked this and shown what it is - check it out!)

Sorry. I just hate lying propaganda no matter who does it and got emotional!

[Ticonderoga34]

That will be TWO HOURS of unintelligible mumbo jumbo that will pre-empt the dnc agenda, and delay the “business of the convention!

Woo Hoo!

Makes for GREAT TV Coverage! hahahahahahaha

I hope that there's nothing to take attention away from the Democratic convention so the American people can see what a freak show the Democratic party has become.

[dfwgator]

Party pooper.

Islam is not a religion...it’s a 7th Century death cult...and the Koran is the user’s manual.

[TsonicTsunami08]

As a Catholic I recognize that the church has a very, very, very serious problem. A homosexual cult has infiltrated the church presided over by Dolan and many others! It saddens me to no end.
Watch this brief video for yourself. Sinful!

It surprises me that the Dems don’t embrace this pagan!

[Fawn]

What are you talking about? Are they going to be there praying or not? Are they NOT invited?

[fishtank]

Priests of Baal on the left.

Elijah on the right.

[soycd]

My first thought was why would any self respecting Catholic bless anything democrat?

I fully expect scumuzzy actions out of the rats.

News of this was posted a few days ago, and another poster
put it in perspective, since the way it was reported made it sound like the Islam outreach was given center-stage from the get-go at the Dem Convention, and was more blatantly in-your-face than you’d think they would ever dare to make it: now I’m not so sure.
Everything depends on how the MSM filters it down to us: how it is presented. It will be given a light touch, explained by the commentators as a nice, respectful, progressive, and responsible gesture of inclusion, and NOT pandering,or fatuous Islam-promoting, and you can be sure NO mention will be made of any other religious observance being rejected. If it is presented any other way, it will SINK Obama. It looks like a tricky roll of the dice to me: hope it comes up snake-eyes.
