Democrats Change 181 Year-Old Rule To Allow Ilhan Omar To Wear Hijab In The House

We haven't had a female Muslim elected in 181 years

This is an expression of religion! I guess it’s OK when it comes to iSLAM. We’re screwed as a nation. Fucking ABNORMALS and worthless, spineless Repukes are taking us down the path of destruction!....Wherr are the SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE scumbags when they should be up in arms....but dont let a 66 year old cross stand on public property to memorialize our fallen war heros!

For 181 years, the U.S. House of Representatives has imposed a ban on its members wearing head coverings. With Ilhan Omar, one of the first Muslim women to be elected to Congress, set to take her oath of office in January, that rule—which would have prohibited her wearing her customary headscarves or the hijab—is slated to change.

The change was proposed jointly by Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi, Incoming Rules Chairman Jim McGovern and member-elect Ilhan Omar as part of a larger overhaul package.

When Omar is sworn in next year, she will become the first federal legislator to wear a religious headscarf. Her arrival will mark a number of other “firsts” as well. The Minnesota Democrat will be the first Somali-American in Congress and the first woman of color to represent her state in Washington. She’ll be joined by fellow Midwestern Democrat, Michigan’s Rashida Tlaib, as the first two Muslim women in Congress.

Hats of any kind have been banned from the House floor since 1837.

Now Jews can wear yarmulke’s. What, do you hate Jews?

No one hates the Jews because the Jews love the nation and put the nation before their religion.

The same can't be said of this selfish woman. The whole representative body needs to change the rules for her.

What places are there in the world where Islam is peacefully co-mingled with other religions where Muslims are the overwhelming majority? Which Muslim countries could I freely walk around wearing a cross and carrying a Bible without fear?

IOW....are Muslims truly a peaceful, tolerant people or are they just getting a foothold in America so that they can eventually unleash Sharia Law?

Christianity in America seems to be in rapid decline just as Islam seems to be gaining a lot of ground.
Not sure why American women are so glad to see the rise of Islam?

Can anyone explain?

Is it really down to that binary choice? Either Muslims are peaceful or they are going to "unleash Sharia Law"?

Muslims make up a tiny percentage of the US population. The most recent estimates I've seen put Muslims (of all ages, so including children) at about 1% of the US population, whereas are estimated at around 70%. While Islam may be growing and Christianity declining, the gap is still huge.

A new estimate of U.S. Muslim population
Religion in America: U.S. Religious Data, Demographics and Statistics

I don't know whether or not American women are glad to see the rise of Islam.

So, maybe we should discuss the possibilities of rapid growth before it occurs.


You know, instead of waiting till then, so libs can say, it is too late to do anything.

So, that's all she has to offer in your mind? No surprise there.

Which of the American citizens involved do you want to "move back to your shit hole countries"?

Do you think hats were banned because foreigners were wearing them in sessions of Congress?

They can move out of the US We keep changing traditions so we don’t insult foreigners in our country. That’s the problem, no pledge of elegance, no merry Christmas, no prayer in school. It’s bullshit. The US shouldn’t have to change for foreigners. If they don’t like it leave.

Hey, if the rule has been changed I see no reason that this shouldn't be ok...

I certainly expect to see it soon. And then...so what?

Yeah, pointing out that liberals, hypocritical focus on race and gender, instead of content of character, or actions,


I do that all the time. Any reasonable person would have seen it coming from a mile away.


Libs of course, are always shocked that anyone would try to hold them to their own claimed standards.


Every single time.


losers.

I don't need to.

All I need to know is that she ran for Congress because she wants to affect policy, yet she never had any intention of making a compromise of her faith.

She wants the tradition of the nation to bend to her will, OF THE ENTIRE NATION OF ISLAM.

So I already know what is more important to her. She reveals it by wanting the traditions of the entire body to change for ONE PERSON, exclusively for the demands of one religion.

Apparently all of her citizenship classes and the oath she took to become a citizen? meh, lip service.

"I hereby declare, on oath, that I absolutely and entirely renounce and abjure all allegiance and fidelity to any foreign prince, potentate, state, or sovereignty, of whom or which I have heretofore been a subject or citizen; that I will support and defend the Constitution and laws of the United States of America against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I will bear arms on behalf of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform noncombatant service in the Armed Forces of the United States when required by the law; that I will perform work of national importance under civilian direction when required by the law; and that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; so help me God."


. . . . lip service. It didn't mean shit to her.

Stop being melodramatic.

That isn't the point here.

This is about her religion, the state, and sovereignty.

Is she going to be respectful of the US government, or force the US government to be respectful of Allah? Which is in charge, which has sovereignty?

That is the power play she is showing to her base. If you don't get that you are obtuse.
