2. 44% say it's wrong?

3. I have no issues

with a muslim in congress. I welcome it. Maybe he can shut the elite white boys club up and educate them that not all muslims are terrorists.

Bush will probably beef up the SS detail for the SOTU address in January as he'll think this guy is 'out to get him.'

4. What a stupid poll! "It's fine" is equivalent to "Don't care"

So the non-bigoted vote gets split.

8. That's exactly what I thought. But why do Freepers hate the Constitution?

[ncrainbowgrrl]

11. Looks like the poll setup was designed to split the non-bigotted vote...

Can't think of any other excuse for why they would come up with such STUPID choices. :shrug:

[Crunchy Frog]

[Skittles]

10. just so you're aware

hatred/intolerance of Muslims runs far outside the garden-variety freeper freaks

[rpannier]

7. I see that 1587 members of the Aryan Brotherhood got out and voted

in this poll.
People never cease to amaze me. A half century ago it was Catholics and Jews.

[Skittles]

9. I'm not sure of the difference between fine/don't care

I don't care what religion people are and I think it's fine if they're Muslim

12. Instead of worrying about Keith Ellison's election in Minnesota

perhaps this FLORIDA T.V. station should be taking a poll along the lines of "Does it bother you that 18,000 votes went missing in a Florida House race?"

[wellstone dem]

18. Amen! Leave Minnesota politics alone

The poll should say, "Is it wrong for folks in a Minnesota congressional district to vote for whomever they want?"

13. The Xtian right wing theocrats have lost their battle

to make the U.S. a right wing theocracy and they are throwing a fit.

[wicket]

14. Done, needs help

It's fine. 1363 37%

[northofdenali]

[me b zola]

16. It's fine, 37%

[Infinite Hope]

17. Talk about slanted answers. "Wrong vs. "Fine"....Since when is "fine" opposite of "Wrong?" n/t

[alfredo]

20. They split the Liberal votes between Fine and Don't care.

That's so they can report that Wrong has the majority of votes.

[Gothmog]

19. Still losing

43% think that it is wrong to have a muslim in congress.
