YA, HERE’s a blogger with a different angle from that of other bloggers today on the upcoming State of the Union! 🙂
Many would find THIS INFORMATION ABOUT A DOG ATTENDING THE STATE OF THE UNION ADDRESS AS SILLY. Who CARES if a dog comes into building? Muslims do, and they’ve said so, because they believe dogs should never be indoors as they are dirty.
Who GIVES A DAMN how Muslims feel about dogs (or pigs, or birds?) I don’t! I’m sorry they don’t enjoy the sweet comfort of a pet dog, but that’s their choice! UNTIL IT’S OUR CHOICE. Slowly, we have cafeterias only serving halal food because some Muslims work in that building, for example….We have other things Muslims favor and they win and that’s wrong and it leads to bigger things, in my humble opinion. I buy pretty tasty kebabs at a Turkish restaurant very nearby which has halal food; they’re nice people, they can serve what they want IN THEIR OWN PLACE! It’s my choice to eat it or not.
TONIGHT is more important than a DOG……….but this information I ran across really bugged me. Some will say “But Muslims are PEOPLE and if they don’t like something, that should come before the safety or acceptance of DOGS!” I get that….I’d generally put PEOPLE above ANIMALS (although I think we all know some animals which are FAR more wonderful than some people!!)……. But I’ll never EVER accept the FACT that anybody, Muslim or not, can tell a PERSON WHO CAN’T SEE that his seeing-eye dog must NOT be allowed with him into ANY chambers (except the home of a Muslim; then censor away!)
DO YOU CARE about the ramifications which I bring up? It’s the ramifications which bug me……….nobody has the right to say a seeing-eye dog can’t help a blind person.
I’M NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO TONIGHT’S STATE OF THE UNION…….I THINK THE DEMOCRATS ARE GOING TO MAKE TOTAL CHAOS OF IT, INCLUDING THEIR RALLY OUTSIDE, WHICH I THINK A LOT OF LIBERAL D.C. DWELLERS WILL ALSO ATTEND………MAYBE THIS MUSLIM/DOG THING IS SOMETHING I CAN CONCENTRATE ON INSTEAD OF TONIGHT’S CHALLENGES….
Should a Muslim be able to say dogs can’t be near them!? By the way, I think the politician, Republican Rep Andy Fine, handled it all very badly, but…………the point stands.
WHAT DO YOU THINK?
