Mediaite: Eli Clifton and Lee Fang of Think Progress broke a story on Veteran's Day concerning Tennessee state representative Rick Womick and his fear of Muslims in the military. Asked whether or not Muslims should be forced out of the military, Womick told Fang, "Absolutely, yeah." On Wednesday, Think Progress' Faiz Shakir discovered video from the "Preserving Freedom Conference," where Womick told a room of people that, "we cannot have Muslims in our military because we cannot trust them." Many in the crowd gave him a standing ovation.
