What part of “No Religious Tests” does Mitt Romney not understand?
Mitt “Strap Doggy to the Roof” Romney is down with the discrimination against religious minorities:
Mansoor Ijaz, who describes himself as an American-born Muslim whose family came from Pakistan, writes in an opinion piece in today’s Christian Science Monitor that he attended a private fund-raiser this month for Romney in Las Vegas. Ijaz says he asked Romney whether he would consider a Muslim for a national security post in his Cabinet, since he says radical jihad is the biggest threat facing America.
According to Ijaz, Romney said that based on the proportion of Muslims in the US population, a Cabinet post would not be “justified,” though he could “imagine” Muslims serving in lower-level jobs in his administration.
Just one problem. Article VI of the Constitution stands in the way of this sort of blatant discrimination.
Guess that pesky Constitution is “just a goddamned piece of paper” to Mitt.
