Congressman Sali (R-ID) is well known as a racist bigot for some time now, even before he became a member of the House of Representatives. Well if you thought the big city might bring some decency to that hideous mouth of yours, guess again. The already tainted Congress just got a little uglier.
From some people that love Bill Sali:
"We have not only a Hindu prayer being offered in the Senate, we have a Muslim member of the House of Representatives now, Keith Ellison from Minnesota. Those are changes -- and they are not what was envisioned by the Founding Fathers," asserts Sali.
Sali says America was built on Christian principles that were derived from scripture. He also says the only way the United States has been allowed to exist in a world that is so hostile to Christian principles is through "the protective hand of God."
"You know, the Lord can cause the rain to fall on the just and the unjust alike," says the Idaho Republican.
According to Congressman Sali, the only way the U.S. can continue to survive is under that protective hand of God. He states when a Hindu prayer is offered, "that's a different god" and that it "creates problems for the longevity of this country."
Who is Bill Sali to know what the founding fathers envisioned. Sali's hate and vengeance towards people who pray differently is a sad representation of a small minority of Americans. The founding fathers envisioned freedom of religion due to the persecutions that were suffered back in Europe. It would be terribly hypocritical to proclaim that freedom as a difference from the monarchs in Europe and then not practice what you preach.
Sali should be censured and kicked out of Congress for that type of talk. There is no place for hate in our nation's legislature and it needs to swept out ASAP.
