I didn't want to comment on news that was just reaction to an article I didn't read, but I have heard of his outrageous statements.

I think it dubious of an elected official to speak thus, and it's ridculous to assume the nature of Ellison.

dubious?

And it goes way beyond his assumption of the nature of Ellison it goes to religious test for citizenship and government office.

There is no religious test for public office, but people such as Goode (or "Badde", as I might refer to him) seem to think there ought to be.

Good letters in the link! As for whether or not Bush would ever try to police xenophobes from his own party, I think hell would have to freeze first. Any time someone can get the evangelical voters pumped up about anything, it seems to be considered a good thing by the Bush administration. "Gay marriage", Terri Schiavo, abortion, the "War on Christmas", whatever... if it can get the evangelicals fired up, it's helpful to the party. I am fairly certain the administration would just let people like Goode continue with his idiotic comments, and probably not ask him to stop.
