Tlaib said on Showtime's "The Circus" that anti-Muslim bias played a big role in last week's controversy surrounding Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.). 

 

"I know this would be somewhat shocking for some, but I think Islamophobia is very much among the Democratic Party as well as the Republican Party," said Tlaib. She and Omar are the first Muslim women elected to Congress.

 

"And I know that's hard for people to hear, but there's only been four members of Congress that are of Muslim faith. Three of them currently serve in this institution," Tlaib said.

That's the problem.

We don't have enough Muslim socialists in congress!

We’ve finally reached the point where they have no choice but to eat their own. Corn futures are going through the roof!

Muslims make up 1% of the total population in the USA, how many f'ing representative does she want? They are exactly at proportional representation.

Let's add up all the factors:

1. They're at war with LGBT.
2. They're at war with pacifist liberal Protestants.
3. They're at war with the Catholics (all colors).
4. They are 100% incompatible with modern African American society.
5. They're at war with the neoconservatives.
6. They're at war with the Blue Dogs.
7. They're at war with the liberals in the military.

...who votes these guys in?!?

Don't you think that's a good thing? Feels like most Republicans will defend each other no matter what where is Democrats can actually criticize each other based on individual actions or ideologies. What you're making fun of is actually a strength for the liberal mind.

Islam is incompatible with civilized cultures and it, and it's adherents, should be exterminated from the face of the earth ... much less US government office.

This is working out better than I imagined.

And, she's probably more than a little concerned about all the J-o-os on "her" side of the aisle, too.

These Muslim immigrants say they are justified in their distrust of the US because our government interferes in their affairs. Fine but they should accept that we don’t trust them fully because people representing their faith attacked and killed thousands of American civilians.

If they focused on showing people that they value being Americans more than being Muslims by publicly calling out the people in their communities that refuse to assimilate and publicly condemning the actions of the Muslims living by Sharia law, people might change their opinions. The more they whine about Islamophobia, the more I tune them out.

It seems to me that democrats believe only white republicans are responsible for the actions committed by white democrats during the 60s. “Peaceful Muslims” aren’t responsible for the actions of the terrorists, black people & hispanics aren’t responsible for the actions of gang bangers, but white people are not only responsible for our ancestors, but we should prove we aren’t racists, misogynistic, Islamophobic, etc, etc, etc
