states that we were not at war against islam. in a speech in april of 2002, he said -- and i want to quote here -- america rejects bigotry. we reject every act of hatred against people of arab background or muslim faith, america values and welcomes peaceful people of all faiths. christian, jewish, muslim, sikh, hindu and many others. every faith is practiced and protected here because we are one country. every immigrant can be fully and equally american because we are one country. race and color should not divide us because america is one country. do senate republicans agree? if so, then come down here and say so. where are you?
