Americans send first muslin to Capitol Hill
http://www.cnn.com/2006/POLITICS/11/...ect/index.html
"In a political first, a Muslim has been elected to serve in the U.S. Congress. Keith Ellison, a Minnesota state legislator and lawyer, reached the political milestone by defeating two other candidates in Minnesota's 5th Congressional District, which covers the Minneapolis area. His victory was part of the Democratic wave that seized control of the House of Representatives from the Republicans." edit: Dammit, not a good day for spelling for me :( |
Interesting. Just goes to show anyone can be selected.

PZ Myers posted from his own atheist-Minnesotan POV here: Minnesota puts "evil in high places". Some of the comments he highlights from the Rapture Ready folks are mind-boggling. |
