ARTICLE: Va. Lawmaker's Remarks on Muslims Criticized: Republican Had Decried the Use of the Koran for Congressman's Oath of Office, By Zachary A. Goldfarb, Washington Post December 21, 2006; Page A11

We should be ecstatic we've got a Muslim congressman and OF COURSE he should be sworn in on the Koran if that's what he wants.

The GOP leadership should rein this jackass in pronto, and Pelosi should be speaking out clearly on the subject.

Maybe both are happening and I'm just unaware out here in HI, but I'm glimpsing too much hyperbolic coverage to believe otherwise.
