Massachusetts Governor Shows Religious Discrimination
[From article]
So imagine my shock and surprise yesterday when I saw a 1:56-minute video on YouTube of the governor, and this is how it began:
“Hi, I’m Governor Patrick. Salaam alaikum.”
(That’s Arabic for “Dominus vobiscum.”)
“I want to take this opportunity to wish you and your family a very blessed Eid al-Adha. Eid Mubarak.”
Whoa! Hold it right there, Governor. If you can use the name of the Muslim holiday, what about … the C-word? Or Easter? Or Yom Kippur, for that matter?
