Muslim Hating Racist doing what he do:
In the real world:
The
White House Iftar dinner is an annual reception held at the
White House and hosted by the
U.S. President and the
First Lady to celebrate the
Muslim month of
Ramadan. The annual tradition started in 1996 when
Hillary Clinton hosted a Ramadan Eid celebration
dinner.
Thomas Jefferson hosted the first dinner in 1805 when he received the first Muslim ambassador to the United States. The reception is attended by prominent members of the
Muslim American community including politicians, community leaders and students.
On 20 February 1996, Hillary Clinton welcomed Muslims in a reception dinner at the Old Executive Office Building. Clinton described it as an historic event, saying that:
Eid Mubarak. I want to welcome you all to the White House as you and Muslims all over the world celebrate the end of Ramadan. I am honored so many of you could take the time to share part of this holy month with us. This is a historic occasion–the first Eid Celebration ever at the White House. It is only fitting that, just as children and families of other faiths come here to celebrate some of their holy days, so you, too, are all here to mark this important Islamic tradition.[SUP]
