Grover Norquist Exposed on House Floor Today
I have _long worked to expose_

Brotherhood operatives in the GOP, most pointedly Grover Norquist. He wears
the
mask of "fiscal respomsiblity" and "tax reform" while infiltrating and
subverting the party with dirty money and traitorous alliances.
Today, _Republican Rep. Frank Wolf_ (http://wolf.house.gov/) outed Grover
in Congress. Thank you, Rep. Wolf. _Any Republican _

complicit in the subversion, and should be shunned and exposed.
Norquist has also carried water for Islamic supremacist attempts to weaken
anti-terror efforts. Frank Gaffney revealed that "Norquist was also a
prime-mover behind efforts to secure one of the Islamists' top pre-9/11 agenda
items: the abolition of a section of the 1996 Anti-Terrorism and Effective
Death Penalty Act that permits authorities to use what critics call ‘secret
evidence.' ... Norquist was an honoree at an event held by Sami Al-Arian's
National Coalition to Protect Political Freedom in July 2001, two months
before 9/11. The award was for being a 'champion of the abolishment movement
against secret evidence.'" Al-Arian in 2006 pleaded guilty "conspiracy to
make or receive contributions of funds to or for the benefit of Palestinian
Islamic Jihad." Palestinian Islamic jihad is even worse than Hamas's; it
celebrates the killing of Israeli civilians and calls repeatedly for the
destruction of Israel.
Norquist also introduced Nihad Awad, co-founder and executive director of
the Council on American-Islamic Relations, to President Bush. CAIR is one of
the foremost Islamic supremacist hate sponsors in the U.S. Terror expert
Steve Emerson wrote that "CAIR, which touts itself as America's premier
Muslim civil rights organization, was named as an unindicted co-conspirator in
the Holy Land Terror trial." He noted that CAIR co-founders Nihad Awad and
Omar Ahmad attended "a 1993 Philadelphia meeting where the HAMAS members
and supporters discussed a strategy to kill the Oslo Peace Accords, which
threatened to marginalize HAMAS. The group also discussed ways to improve
HAMAS fundraising in America."
Grover Norquist almost singlehandedly ushered Islamic supremacist leaders
into America's highest levels of government -- subversives, the Islamic
fifth column. He gave them unparalleled access.
_Rep. Frank Wolf on Grover Norquist: You can never say again that you didn’
t know _

Potomac Tea Party Report (hat tip _Ann_
(http://refugeeresettlementwatch.wordpress.com/) )
Maryland Tea Partiers take note—everyone involved with the upcoming
Annapolis rally should know that organizers have invited Grover Norquist of
_Americans for Tax Reform_ (http://www.atr.org/) to speak to conservative
activists at the highly anticipated event on October 18th.
In light of this incredible speech and detailed report released earlier
today by Virginia _Republican Rep. Frank Wolf_ (http://wolf.house.gov/) who
so aptly paraphrased Wilber Wilberforce on the House floor—you can never
say again that you didn’t know!—those organizers may wish to reconsider that
invitation.
Today Wolf gave a five minute floor speech in the US House of
Representatives to outline the case against Norquist, his past activities, and
his
questionable associations and how those associations taint the admirable (to
us, maybe not to Wolf) No New Taxes pledge signed by most elected Republicans
in state government and in Congress. Hat tip: Richard Falknor at _Blue
Ridge Forum_ (http://blueridgeforum.com/) .
Here is how_ Wolf’s press release_
(http://wolf.house.gov/index.cfm?sectionid=34&itemid=1805) begins:
Washington, D.C. – In a speech today on the House floor, Rep. Frank Wolf
(R-VA) expressed concern about Grover Norquist’s influence on the political
process in Washington and his association with several individuals, groups
and causes many would consider unsavory.
Wolf questioned Norquist’s relationship with convicted felon Jack Abramoff
and terrorist financiers Abdurahman Alamoudi and Sami Al-Arian. He also
raised the issue of Norquist’s advocacy of moving Guantanamo Bay detainees to
the United States, including 9/11 mastermind Khaled Sheik Mohammed, and
his representation of the Internet gambling industry and Fannie Mae.
Norquist is the head of Americans For Tax Reform (ATR) and author of the
organization’s anti-tax pledge. Wolf’s concern is not with ATR’s goals but
with Norquist being the sole interpreter and enforcer of the pledge,
especially given his history with questionable individuals and groups.
“I want to be clear: I raise these issues not just because Mr. Norquist’s
associates may be unsavory people,” Wolf said. “There are many lobbyists
in Washington who represent clients of all stripes and backgrounds. But my
concern arises when the appearances of impropriety are raised over and over
again with a person who has such influence over public policy. That, I
believe, should give any fair-minded person pause.”
And, he wrapped up with this:
Wolf closed his five-minute floor speech by quoting British
parliamentarian and abolitionist William Wilberforce, saying “having heard all
of this,
you may choose to look the other way, but you can never say again that you
did not know.”
But, that is not the end. Please visit _Wolf’s website and read the
stunning detailed report _
(http://wolf.house.gov/index.cfm?sectionid=34&itemid=1805) released by Wolf’s
office. In Wolf’s report he also brought
attention to Norquist’s support of the ground zero mosque, but did not raise
the
issue of Norquist’s active support of the _Kennedy/McCain/Bush Amnesty bill _
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comprehensive_Immigration_Reform_Act_of_2007)
that Tea Partiers helped defeat in the summer of 2007, but I will.
