"...makes it embarrassing to be a right-wing whackjob."

COUNTERCOLUMN: With your host, Ali Bubba: "Dennis Prager is writing that Keith Ellison, the first Muslim elected to Congress, should not be allowed to swear his oath on a Koran.

There is no constitutional reason Representative Keith Ellison should not take his oath of office on a Koran. I'm curious to see whether Senator Joe Lieberman, an Orthodox Jew, took his oath of office on a Tanakh or Torah, rather than a full Old and New Testament Bible.

This is the kind of thinking that makes it embarrassing to be a right wing whackjob."
