[I was inspired to look into this by something I heard today while watching the opening of Congress on C-SPAN.]
He's been so focused on going after Muslim Rep. Keith Ellison for not having "Judeo-Christian" values, he's ignored a far more insidious threat - there are now 2 Buddhists in Congress!!
Any religion that forbids killing, stealing, lying, inappropriate sexual activity (outside of marriage or harassment), and the consumption of alcohol and other drugs is totally unprecedented in America!!
Certainly it's totally unlike Christianity, isn't it??
:))
The two Buddhists are both Democrats - Reps. Mazie Hirono of Hawaii and Hank Johnson of Georgia. Rep. Johnson is better known as the Democrat who unseated controversial former Rep. Cynthia McKinney in the primary.
Given that Reps. Hirono, Johnson, and Ellison are all Democrats, expect some kind of whispering campaign from far right-wing talk radio and Fox News hosts. Not that I'm a cynic or anything.
Good night!
