Illinois state congresswoman shouted down Rob Sherman who was testifying to the legistlature against public monies being used to restore a Baptist Church.
here is the link, including video of Keith Olberman blasting Davis for her anti-free speech rhetoric to a detractor.

Here is Mrs. Davis's e-mails
davismd@ilga.gov or mdavis2147@aol.com
It would be nice to see YOU take on her. |

Yeah.. as you know. Rob has been on the show twice before. I guess it is about that time again. |

Did you catch Oberman last night? Not only did Davis say she was sorry for her comment. BUT on top of that Pat Robertson made |"Worst Person" number one for calling Islam a political party.
Oberman basically said, "Pot met kettle" and said that Robertson was owner of a megga church business and ran for president and sticks his nose in politics all the time.
It is awesome to see mainstream media not treating religion with kid gloves. No one should be bigoted towards anyone, sure. But no claim should be beyond scrutiny. |

Why exactly should atheism be more hated than anything else? If this controversy was over Muslims or Jews or Hinduus being discriminated against that bitch Davis would have kept her mouth shut.

Who said the people of Illinois have to believe in God, Yahweh, Allah, or the FSM?

If I remember correctly, this country was built upon the establishment clause as well.
Now that I've gotten that out of my system, its good to see that a congressman is actually using his brain. |

She, is not a man, she is a "African American" state congresswoman, who is old enough to remember what it was like to understand being judged for being "different". |

Oh no no no, I was referring to Rob Sherman after slightly changing the topic. |
