Minnesota Teapot Crackpot knows not the Constitution
Judson Philips, said to be the founder of the Tea Party Nation, doesn't believe Muslims should be able to hold political office in the United States.
Mr. Philips sent out a letter in which he urged his followers to support the Republican candidate for the seat in the U.S. House of Representatives currently held by Keith Ellison, who is a Muslim.
One of the reasons people should not vote for Mr. Ellison saith Mr. Philips is because of his religion - his Muslim faith.
Ellison was elected by the people of Minnesota to the U.S. House in 2007. And he is a Muslim. In the time since he was first send to Washington, he has not destroyed the Congress, the presidency, the Pentagon, the Washington Monument or the Lincoln Memorial. You wonder what the hell he's been doing there!
Philips, however, is an ignoramus. Echoing the cries of other teapot crackpots and morons like Newt Gingrich (who is not an ignoramus, but a dangerous lying dirtbag) Philips proves he is unfamiliar with our Constitution which specifically states there shall be no religious test for office.
Either that (he's an ignoramus) or he doesn't care what the Constitution says, which is worse, I suppose, because that would make Philips and his cohorts subversives engaged in treason.
But what else other than mindless demagoguery can one expect from members of the Teapot Crackpot Tea Party?
