In the ongoing battle to deprive Mideast terrorists of financial support, one member of Congress vows he’ll make sure at least one group of violent extremists gets cash from U.S. taxpayers.

U.S. Rep. Gerry Connolly, D- Va., defended U.S. funding of the Palestinian Authority, despite the fact that the authority includes members of Hamas, a group the U.S. says is a terror organization.

Connolly’s remarks, at a Sept. 28 Arab American Candidates Night forum, emphasized his determination to fight House of Representatives colleagues who might block the funding.

connally used to be in fairfax county VA government where he worked hard to establish that he is a marxist idiot. His success at that led him to being elected by the swarms of low-info LIB/DIM voters in northern VA.

The very notion of American taxpayers being forced to fund any foreign government is totally insane.

Yes, he was the County Supervisor, and yes, he is the embodiment of all things Marxist. Jack Herrity must be spinning like a ceiling fan in his grave.

thanks. i see.
it is amazing how widespread the ....”I vote for candidates that will take away my liberties and enslave me” ....phenomenon is nowadays in USA!

black areas
many Latino areas
college campuses
and additional....

(and there’s apparently no aversion to Nazi or IslamoNazi candidates, either, just look at the Demo Party Convention tapes...... that could NEVER have happened at a Demo party convention even just a few years ago....the D party has been taken over by IslamoNazi agents or people who sell out for their money or...other haters of America)

nothing you didn;t know in any of the above. I’m just amazed at how it is...that so many people vote for, support candidates and causes that hate them .. and work against their interests. Used to be, you heard criticism of people who voted for their own interests, now we see millions of people voting for their enemies instead...

(and, obviously, America’s)
