Rep. Mary Miller Loses It Over 'A Muslim' Speaking In Congress
www.huffpost.com
"May God have mercy!" said Miller, who tweaked her post to attack Sikhs instead before deleting it all together.

Rep. Mary Miller ― a Republican from Illinois who once praised Adolf Hitler ― wrote, edited and ultimately deleted a social media post decrying “a Muslim” speaking in Congress.

“It’s deeply troubling that a Muslim was allowed to lead prayer in the House of Representatives this morning. This should have never been allowed to happen,” she wrote Friday. “American was founded as a Christian nation, and I believe our government should reflect that truth. May God have mercy!”

The man leading the prayer was guest chaplain Giani Singh, a follower of the Sikh faith, not Islam. Miller’s Republican colleague Rep. Jeff Van Drew (N.J.) introduced him as such on Friday.

    Well you see, the thing about conservatives is that they are fucking stupid self-serving liars evil.

    Fixed it for you. Some of the old school Republicans are that, true. But, this new Republican party adopted their sinister mindset because “god said so”. While a few of them are motivated by greed, this shit-fest is motivated by legitimate belief. Incidentally, this is the same minset that motivated the crusades, the Spanish Inquisition, the Salem witch trials, 9/11, and ISIS. Its a fundamentalist mindset where they can jusify evil in god’s name.

    This bitch knows damn well America isn’t a “Christian nation,”

    Maybe, or maybe she actually believes the lie. Or, maybe, she thinks it her mission to turn the United States into the holy land (ISIS thought the same thing about the middle east, and probably the world).

    she’ll shout it from the rooftops if she thinks she can get away with it in order to advance her hateful, bigoted agenda.

    Yep. She’s a true believer.
