Religious freedom? Never heard of it.
"[I]f American citizens don’t wake up and adopt the Virgil Goode position on immigration there will likely be many more Muslims elected to office and demanding the use of the Koran," the letter reads.Who is Virgil Goode? Unfortunately, this idiot is a U.S. Congressman elected by the state of Virginia. The quote is from a letter he sent to a constituent.
Before Goode takes the oath of office, he may want to review the U.S. Constitution he is going to be swearing to uphold. It says a little something about religious freedom. And it doesn't say people are free to practice only Goode's religion.
You can find the rest here at TPM Muckraker.

Let me call your attention, particularly, to this provision: "The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States."
Exactly. So you are more qualified to be in Congress than Mr. Goode since you've taken the time to get to know the qualifications for office.
