Mark Williams, leader of the Tea Party Express was forced to apologize to followers of a Monkey God. My question is shouldn't a fine American should be protected by our laws and not forced into doing something so blatantly distasteful to him as it would be to you or me. I think we should remember him in our prayers and offer any support we,as God fearing American Christians can. I have copied the article from the newspaper and it will follow.I am not sure what type of pressure he was under from our present lie-ber-al government to make him state there is actually a God-monkey at all! Typical of this heathen loving political pundits!
Days after writing that Muslims worship "the terrorists' monkey god," embattled Tea Party leader
Mark Williams apologized for his insensitivity - to Hindus.
"In the course of the article I described the 'god' worshiped by terrorists as 'a monkey god.' I was wrong and that was offensive. I owe an apology to millions of Hindus who worship Lord Hanuman, an actual Monkey God," Williams wrote Wednesday night.
The original blog post equated the proposed Mosque adjacent to Ground Zero to a monument to the 9/11 terrorists.
Williams, chairman of the
Tea Party Express and frequent
CNN contributor, was denounced by Muslim leaders and politicians like
Mayor Bloomberg for the "appalling" comment.
Williams did not apologize to Muslims in the new blog post. Instead, he used the apology to Hundus as another way to attack Muslims.
"Hanuman is worshiped as a symbol of perseverance, strength and devotion. He is known as a destroyer of evil and to inspire and liberate. Those are hardly the traits of whatever the Hell (literally) it is that terrorists worship and worthy of my respect and admiration not ridicule."
"So, again, to my Hindu friends, I offer my sincerest apologies for my horrible lapse and my insensitivity. It was unintentional, inexplicably ignorant and I am ashamed at my offense toward you."
