Rep. Mary Miller ― a Republican from Illinois who once praised Adolf Hitler ― wrote, edited and ultimately deleted a social media post decrying “a Muslim” speaking in Congress.
“It’s deeply troubling that a Muslim was allowed to lead prayer in the House of Representatives this morning. This should have never been allowed to happen,” she wrote Friday. “American was founded as a Christian nation, and I believe our government should reflect that truth. May God have mercy!”
The man leading the prayer was guest chaplain Giani Singh, a follower of the Sikh faith, not Islam. Miller’s Republican colleague Rep. Jeff Van Drew (N.J.) introduced him as such on Friday.
“Day after day, year after year, he leads not just with words. but with example ― with peace, with humility, with service towards all,” Van Drew said. “These are not just Sikh values, they are American values.”
He noted that Singh was serving as guest chaplain on the 81st anniversary of D-Day, when “Sikh soldiers fought shoulder to shoulder with allied forces” on the beaches of Normandy in 1944.
TVNL Comment: Does Moronoic Mary think that Jesus spoke English? She should look up 'Aramaic' and its relation to Arabic. Idiots like this run the country.
