Some of you may have already heard about the exchange between Monique Davis and Rob Sherman. I personally couldn’t believe that someone would tell anyone that the existence of their ideas are dangerous, much less a member of the house! you really need to hear it to believe it.

i don’t think my words can justify it, so as usual when i look for words, i look to obermann.
In the Illinois State Assembly this happens. A declaration that atheism is somehow dangerous? Obviously, Assembly Woman Davis owes the witness and everybody in this country who believes in freedom of religion an apology. And if she can‘t figure that out, she should resign and take her prejudice with her. She also needs to improve her own education. That phrase, this is the Land of Lincoln, where people believe in god; Miss Davis said that in Springfield, where, when Lincoln first ran for Congress in 1846, the future great president was accused by his opponent of being an atheist. You not only spat on the fundamental American freedom to embrace religion, a religion or no religion, Assemblywoman Davis, but you also made a damn fool of yourself in the process. State Representative Monique Davis, Democrat of Illinois, today‘s worst person in the world.
