The CZensoring of God
You may also know that Keith Ellison of Minnesota, a Democrat and the first Muslim in Congress, used the Koran at his swearing-in ceremony. If you swear under the Koran, any action taken to defend the faith, is OK – such as lie, cheat or stea
October 11, 2007
In the article titled Lawmaker protests censorship of 'God', published by the Associated Press, October 4, 2007, Jim Abrams reports that as a result of Speaker of the House Pelosi’s decision to censor God, Republican Rep. Michael Turner is taking exception to the systematic secularization of policies associated with flag certificates – in essence censoring God.
“Under the flag program, begun in 1937, people may request through senators and House members one of the many flags raised and lowered over the Capitol every day”, writes Abrams. In a flag requests, Abrams writes “The Architect's office, citing its own rules, returned the certificate with the word "God" excised”.
Clearly, Speaker Pelosi has no objection to the US Post Office's release of the "Muslim Christmas" stamp - "This is a proud moment for the Postal Service, the Muslim community, and Americans in general as we issue a postage stamp to honor and commemorate two important Islamic celebrations," said Azeezaly S. Jaffer, Vice President, Public Affairs and Communications for the Postal Service, in a press release issued by the US Post Office announcing Stamp Release No. 01-054/ - The Press release notes that "the Eid stamp commemorates the two most important festivals—or eids—in the Islamic calendar: Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha. On these days, Muslims wish each other "Eid mubarak," the phrase featured in Islamic calligraphy on the stamp. "Eid mubarak" translates literally as "blessed festival," and can be paraphrased as "May your religious holiday be blessed."- See below for reaction to such a release by the USPO in what we refer to as an "righteous indignation" email doing its rounds in the Internet again - , or the Intifada debacle associated with the soon to open Madrassa in Brooklyn, or the various on-going efforts by the ACLU to remove the Ten Commandments from public view - apparently the notion of One Nation Under (one) God has gone the way of the dinosaur!
If this happens in Washington, what can you expect in wannabee cities – say, Coto de Caza, where the local governing body has been trying to censor the CotoBuzz Journal, an electronic newspaper of general circulation, for years? First, the local governing body used what we refer to as the L.I.G..I.T – League of Information Generals in Information Technology to intimidate us. When that failed, they resorted to various botched legal maneuverings. Recently, they have let loose a neuron ominously proclaiming “ If the CotoBuzz Journal has nothing positive to say about the CZ board, it should shut up!”
NOTE" A Coto Discussion Forum reader took exception to our posting the "righteous indignation" email therein and said in part: "It may surprise you to know that some people of all faiths or no faith enjoy the spirit of the Christmas season. I have always thought we would all be better off sharing the joy rather than exploiting our differences".
Our response? "You may also know that Keith Ellison of Minnesota, a Democrat and the first Muslim in Congress, used the Koran at his swearing-in ceremony. If you swear under the Koran, any action taken to defend the faith, is OK – such as lie, cheat or steal.
Of course, that may just mean that faith is no longer a differentiator when it comes to upholding the notion of One Nation Under (one) God – Wit performance of current US Congress"

Righteous Indignation - a Muslim Christmas Stamp - An actual email doing its rounds in the Internet
How ironic is this??!! They don't even believe in Christ and they're getting their own Christmas stamp, but don't dream of posting the ten commandments on federal property
USPS New Stamp
This one is impossible to believe.
If there is only one thing you forward today.....let it be this!
REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of Pan Am Flight 103!
REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the World Trade Center in 1993!
REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the Marine Barracks in Lebanon !
REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the military Barracks in Saudi Arabia !
REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the American Embassies in Africa !
REMEMBER the MUSLIM bombing of the USS COLE!
REMEMBER the MUSLIM attack on 9/11/2001!
REMEMBER all the AMERICAN lives that were lost in those vicious MUSLIM attacks!
Now the United States Postal Service REMEMBERS and HONORS the EID MUSLIM holiday season with a commemorative first class Holiday postage stamp.
REMEMBER to adamantly and vocally BOYCOTT this stamp
When purchasing your stamps at the post office. To use this stamp would be a slap in the face to all those AMERICANS who died at the hands of those whom this stamp honors.
REMEMBER to pass this along to every patriotic AMERICAN you know!!!
