MN. Dem. Primary: Catholic Boisclair vs. Muslim Ellison

Mr. Boisclair's campaign is running three TV ads in prime time that focus on abortion, the threat of Islamic Sharia law to American liberty, and the brutal killings of Christians in Islamic countries under Sharia law. Mr. Boiclair utilizes the FCC rules for federal candidates that mandate the TV stations run the TV ads of federal candidates unedited, and uncensored. 

P>MINNEAPOLIS, MN (Catholic Online) - While most of the national press focuses on the Presidential election, a Minnesota primary race for the U.S. House of Representatives is making significant waves, and garnering substantial media attention in the Twin Cities: challenger Gary Boisclair vs. incumbent Keith Ellison.
 
Mr. Ellison is a Muslim, known as the first Congressman to swear his oath of office on a Koran. He has frequently used his voice in congressional hearings to quell criticism against Muslims in particular, and Islam in general.

Mr. Ellison - a Democrat - is also a staunch supporter of Planned Parenthood, abortion, and "homosexual marriage."

Gary Boisclair is a devout Catholic, and a fulltime "pro-life missionary" working with the Society for Truth and Justice in the Washington DC area.

Mr. Boisclair's campaign is running three TV ads in prime time that focus on abortion, the threat of Islamic Sharia law to American liberty, and the brutal killings of Christians in Islamic countries under Sharia law. Mr. Boiclair utilizes the FCC rules for federal candidates that mandate the TV stations run the TV ads of federal candidates unedited, and uncensored. 

What has raised the ire of Mr. Boisclair's political opponents is his use of graphic images of babies killed by abortion, the images of Christians killed by Islamic terrorists, and quoting passages of the Koran that say that Christians are blasphemers who should be killed. You can see the ads here.

Mr. Boisclair has received many abusive emails as well as death threats as a result of his message.

Representative Ellison's campaign responded to the ads, saying: "Mr. Boisclair's television ads are clearly designed to divide Minnesotans and spread fear.Representative Ellison is a proud advocate for inclusion, dialogue and a woman's right to access comprehensive reproductive health care."

In response, Mr. Boisclair said, "The Minneapolis/St. Paul area is reeling from the bold declarations I have made regarding child-killing and Sharia Law. I know I have made some people uncomfortable, but faithfulness to the truth sometimes requires this."

Gary Boisclair is part of a team of eight pro-life Christian federal candidates - led by this author - running this year in various states. There are seven candidates running in the general election, and all of them are running similar ads in the general election.
 
The overarching message of the TV ads is that a Christian cannot vote for Obama in good conscience, because President Obama promotes the abortion of babies, and is attacking the Church and religious liberty through his HHS mandate which mandates the Church and other Christian institutions to pay for drugs that kill the unborn.
 
See Mr. Boisclair's commercials at www.GaryInTheHouse.com, and please remember him in your prayers. His primary will be held this Tuesday, August 14 in Minneapolis.
