#3 Shit this camel bag was endorsed by the Muslime terrorist over at CAIR and no one in Minnesota said a word! This dirtbag will be funneling intel right to our enemies.

One dark day for the North Star State.

#4 I always viewed Minnesota as the Berkeley of the midwest (or mideast if you prefer) with regard to politics.

#5 and he won the endorsement of a Minneapolis Jewish newspaper.

Good little Dhimmis. Now die.

Powerline did a very detailed expose of exactly who this man is. The paper blacked out ALL of the information. The people in Michigan are in for some rocky times.

#6 Minneapolis (aka Murderopolis) is in Minnesota. Here in Michigan, we have Dearborn, thanks very much.

#7 Minneapolis is also known as Minnihopeless. It's no coincidence that I have been spending a lot of my free time in the last couple of months getting my house ready to sell.

#8 oops - my bad.

Keith Ellison is a terrorist supporter. That any paper would endorse him really baffles me - especially a Jewish one. Nothing good will come of from his new found power and clearly it will embolden the Islamist fanatics both here and abroad.

I have to think that Jewish liberal democrats had to feel somewhat of a ill will blowing on their victory celebration today. The Democrats institutional embrace of the not-so-far left's "Get out of Israel" stance is, in light of the rise of anti-semitism we are seeing in Europe, not a good thing at all.

But don't feel left out. Christians will also be in for the heated bigots blame game. Just as "get out of Israel" is a socially acceptable way of expressing bigotry towards Jews- heaping blame and hatred toward the Evangelicals has become socially acceptable bigotry towards all Christians.

#10 I have to think that Jewish liberal democrats had to feel somewhat of a ill will blowing on their victory celebration today.

One would hope. But their numbers are shrinking steadily.

#11 One would hope that denial has it's limitations.
But, Olmert is still in power just yards from the front. How long does it take reality to sink in ?

#12 "There are things within our own community that we disagree about"

That's what jihad and car bombs are for. Takfir and fatwas for everybody!

#13 Mahdi Bray, executive director of the Muslim American Society, compared an Ellison victory to Edward Brooke's election in 1966 as the first black senator since the 1870s.

Uh-huh. Yeah right. Except for that one little detail that Brooke was black (a race) vs. a Muslim (religion). We are not to have ANY tests regarding religion in order to elect someone to office. It does give me some hope that he's split with the fundies (Islamic) on social issues (Abortion and Gay Rights), except that they have NO stance on abortion like Christians do (Gay Rights is another matter to the jihadis though).
