well that didn't last long
Gingrich calls for deportation tests of everyone with a 'Muslim background'

Except that (the heading you gave your link) is not what he said.

What he said is he would deport anybody who is in favor of sharia law, as it is incompatible with our belief system here. Any Muslim who doesn't believe in sharia law, he would be happy to have as his neighbor.

I agree with him 100%.

these poll numbers are really not comforting…but not sure how the electoral college works into this

CBS News/NY Times 7/8 - 7/12 1358 RV 3.0 40 40 Tie 
Rasmussen Reports 7/12 - 7/13 1000 LV 3.0 37 44 Trump +7
Economist/YouGov 7/9 - 7/11 932 RV 4.5 45 43 Clinton +2
McClatchy/Marist 7/5 - 7/9 1053 RV 3.0 42 39 Clinton +3

In your own words, define "sharia law".

And also how do we test if someone believes in Sharia Law? "Dear Muslim, do you believe in Sharia Law?" "No I do not." "OK guys, checks outs, hes good."

I will wait til one week after democratic convention and then look at polls.. at this point they are all over the place and I think there is a bit of a temporary Comey hangover…

fascinating.. CNN is reporting Trump tried to get out of Pence at midnight last night and was told he couldn't…


Trump would have done much better to trust himself and picked who he wanted regardless…by all accounts would have been Chris Christie…

I said I agreed with what he said. I didn't say I had a feasible test to carry through with what he said. There probably is none.

Hysterical if true.

I heard an interesting stat on right wing talk radio the other day… number of Nobel Prizes that have gone to muslims: 7. Number of Nobel Prizes that have gone to jews: +1200




number of muslims in world: +1.2 billion.. number of jews in world: +40 million

I realize they give out Nobel Prizes to more than just science recipients, but if you want to limit the topic of discussion to science, here's a pretty reasoned analysis:



Why are there so few Muslim Nobel Laureates in sciences?
