FRANKEN: “It’s a community center. They’re going to have a gym. They’re going to have point guards. Muslim point guards,” Franken said, to laughter and applause.

“They (Republicans) do this every two years. They try to find a wedge issue, and they try to work it.”

3. K&R
His points were clear, concise, principled, and included a smack against Republicans.

4. OH, NO!!! "Muslim point guards!"
Sure, sure, ...it's "basketball," but if this trend continues, we'll have Muslim pitchers, Muslim center fielders, Muslim quarterbacks, Muslim wide receivers, Muslim sprinters, Muslim marathoners, and...and...and...

OH, NO! "MUSLIM POLE VAULTERS!!!"
