I guess "reporters" these days don't even have to pretend to know the difference between an editorial and a news article.

#9  no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States

IMHO, one of the best things the Founder Fathers did was the whole 'no official religion' thing. However, people from Presidents to soldiers take an oath to uphold and defend the Constitution.

#7  Herman Cain said he would make Muslims take a loyalty oath before hiring them for his cabinet.

There are some fundamental conflicts between Western values as embodied in the US Constitution and Sharia law. You don't get to choose both.

#5  "Dr. Ramy Nasr, a York surgeon and a practicing Muslim, was appalled by Cain's comments. But he was more dismayed at the general reaction to them by the media and the general public.
"The fact that such comments are allowed and not sharply rebuked (by the media) shows you the hostile climate we are in today toward Islam and Muslims," he said via email."

Yeah Doctor, the world feels that way about Islam. Foul words every Friday are never rebuked (by the media or people). And don't get me started by the lackluster and almost zero condemnation of terrorism by the same community.

#4  An article that says that one guy claims 12 people wanted to make complaints but didn't make them for fear? So basically no complaints were made so we have no idea if the one guy is lying or if not if the complaints are legitimate or not. This story is constructed out of nothing.

#1  How about we post guards of a sect that doesn't like any of them in their neighborhood and arm them with their much loved Sharia law. Fence in the whole place also.
