Take a walk, smell the roses. Any topic is fine, save people bashing.

Lies, voter fraud, racial slurs. New Rep. slogan: No low is too low!

There's even a pic to go with that last lie.





Funny thing is, the REAL passage from the book doesn't include the word Muslim at all.

Actual quote from "The Audacity of Hope" [pg. 261]: Of course, not all my conversations in immigrant communities follow this easy pattern. In the wake of 9/11, my meetings with Arab and Pakistani Americans, for example, have a more urgent quality, for the stories of detentions and FBI questioning and hard stares from neighbors have shaken their sense of security and belonging. They have been reminded that the history of immigration in this country has a dark underbelly; they need specific assurances that their citizenship really means something, that America has learned the right lessons from the Japanese internments during World War II, and that I will stand with them should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.
