The first paragraph of Reuters’ report on the win of former Nation of Islam spokesman Keith Ellison in Minnesota says it all: Minnesota sends first Muslim to Congress.

MINNEAPOLIS, Nov 7 (Reuters) - Voters elected a black Democrat as the first Muslim in Congress on Tuesday after a race in which he advocated quick U.S. withdrawal from Iraq and made little mention of his faith.

They’ll be celebrating in Gaza tomorrow.

UPDATE at 11/7/06 10:43:41 pm:

Matthew Good calls me a racist (the all-purpose leftists’ accusation) and captures a screenshot full of “racist” facts to prove it: The Blogged Face Of Racism.

UPDATE at 11/7/06 11:09:08 pm:

Hey, what happened to all those hysterical racism charges? Good has now deleted his screenshot and vitriolic post.

UPDATE at 11/8/06 7:42:49 am:

Good has replaced his idiotic “racism” accusations with a page full of insults.

UPDATE at 11/8/06 2:02:55 pm:
