A Class Act

The picture I was looking for today was of Keith Ellison shaking hands with Virgil Goode shortly after his swearing in ceremony yesterday. Yes, those books are Thomas Jeffersons copy of the Koran. Keith then sought out Mr. Goode and the handshake was recorded for posterity and televised. Then he invited him out for a cup of coffee. Has anyone heard Congressman Goodes' reaction to the possible appointment of the present American Ambassador to Iraq as the new United States Representative to the UN? He would be the top ranking Muslim in the American Government, and a Republican to boot!

Keith Ellison (I have a hard time not saying "Ralph") is indeed a class act. I love this picture of him swearing on JEFFERSON's Koran from GOODE's home district!!!

Cool.
