Rep-Elect Keith Ellison appears on The Situation Room w/ Wolf Blitzer and answers questions regarding the attacks that have been made on him by Dennis Prager and Rep. Virgil Goode before he has even taken office.

1. Ellison was brilliant

staying on topic---the point is the Constitution, and that there is no religious test for holding office. I also liked the fact they brought up his roots. I wonder if Goode can trace his American roots back to 1740?

2. K/R

It is shocking that an Islamic American would use the Koran for his private swearing in ceremony, isn't it?

Mr. Ellison knows what America is about. Mr. Goode should talk with him. He'd learn something.

3. Rep Ellison

Too cool for words K&R

4. keith has integrity

Blitzer tried to get him off topic, but Keith just stayed on message, and wouldn't stoop to name-calling.

I love that Keith is getting so much press, so that everyone can see why we elected him to represent us.
