I'm with subhuman on this one. Let's keep religious display out of politics.

I would agree if you meant Ellison. Unfortunately, he was as secular as could be, in speech and manner. He should make a good, informed, partisan lawmaker for all those of many faiths in his constituency.

Others, supporters, voters -- should be free to express as they wish. Amen, hallelujah, God is great or My God! That is what America is about.

Keith Ellison is a Democrat, he is a liberal, and he has embraced secular politics. If some Muslims, in being happy, that a Muslim was elected chanted God is Great, why should people have Ellison disavow such a chant, unless he asked for the chant. The GOP has started a trend in the U.S. of mentioning God. Barak Obama mentioned God in his speech and so did other Democrats. So when Ellison said God, some of the Muslims chanted God is great. American politicians have created that environment.

If Ellison shared those views, then I would get my knickers in a not, but I don't see Ellison exhibiting those thoughts. My problem with American politics is there seems to be the using of God as if it is a fashion statement. At least, that is my skepticism. I do believe in God, and if someone is sincere about their beliefs, that is okay, but they should support the Constitution. If we thought these were Ellison's beliefs, then we would have a problem with this, perhaps. Do you see the difference? What does Saudi Arabia and rights of minorities have to do with Ellison in Congress? You are just invoking Islamophobia. I don't really like hearing the chanting much. Ellison is far more liberal than they are, and they are probably assuming he is like them because he is Muslim. Republicans and Democrats do not have political rule to ask a Congressman to disavow himself because some fellows said God was great.

has anyone but mr. sundubuman mentioned this incident yet? It seems if it were of any significance Coulter, Limbaugh, or another talking head would have brought it up by now.
