CAIR's mission is to promote understanding and peace between two different societies, so that a dialogue can be established that can help the world become a better place. Yeah its idealistic but we need ideals so that we can work within the parameters of the real world. If we don't try to make things better than what the hell are we doing here?
From their website:
CAIR seeks to empower the American Muslim community and encourage their participation in political and social activism.So LGF, whats up with all the hate? In my humble opinion it seems that the right fears anything different than their harden, narrow-minded views of their Judeo-Christian upbringing. To them, Muslims are different and therefore people to be feared and hated, to be put down at all costs. The recent uproar of Congressman Keith Ellison's swearing in has to really have them going nuts. Right-wingers can always be counted on to be crazy over something and they didn't fail us on this occasion.
Congratulations to Keith for standing up to them with grace and dignity while LGF and others like them continue to scream unabated. Using Thomas Jefferson's Quran was icing on the cake for those standing up for the constitution while further infuriating the right, since they know deep down inside that they are wrong. Goodluck in the 110th Congress, we all have high hopes for you!
