Muslim Brotherhood-Tied Group Paid for Keith Ellison to Visit Mecca in 2008

The House Ethics Committee opened an investigation into Rep. Keith Ellison (D., Minn.) after he failed to disclose that a group founded by members of the Muslim Brotherhood paid for him to make a pilgrimage to the Islamic holy site of Mecca in Saudi Arabia.

Top Democrats have considered shifting to the left by electing Ellison party chairman, but critics say his previous association with radical groups should disqualify him from the leadership role.

Ellison has associated with the Muslim American Society, a Virginia-based group founded by Muslim Brotherhood members in 1993 to act as the “overt arm of the Muslim Brotherhood in the United States,” according to federal prosecutors in 2007. The United Arab Emirates recently added the group to a list of terrorist organizations.

Since he has a RAT after his name I am sure there are different rules for him than if he were a conversative GOP.

[Lopeover]

Let them elect a pro-Islamic to lead their party. It’s a gift.

[txrefugee]

Not even Democrats would be stupid enough to let this friend of America’s enemies run their party.

[areukiddingme1]

OMG I hope the DNC keeps him...He will not only ensure we win a super majority in the Senate but pick up seats in the House as well...Oh please please please keep him around.

[blackdog]

Then he violated the law.

Ellison has long been tied to the Muslim Brotherhood and their planned “civilization jihad” to “destroy the Western civilization from within” http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/3370180/posts

Yes, it means the New York Times and Washington Post will ignore this storty... Then again, the Post and Times would ignore a story about the KKK paying for a trip for Trump, right?/s

"Then he violated the law."

Democrat resume enhancer.

I wouldn't be so sure of that. Think how seamlessly he could work with Obama, our black Muslim ex-President.

Based on the party running the UNINDICTED FELON - and anyone who has handled classified material knows this to be an indisputable FACT - as their presidential candidate in 2016, I would not go as far as saying the party is NOT that stupid. IMHO THE PARTY IS THAT STUPID.

I hope they do it.

[I want the USA back]

The dems want him in a prominent position in government. Proof that the dems have sold out this country to the muzzards.

[No_More_Harkin]

uhhh.... you sure about that?
your Democrats on the street, no, the power players?? Perhaps Ellison is not corrupt enough for them.

[No_More_Harkin]

"Democrat resume enhancer."

AHAHAHA - Using that one later!.

[Aevery_Freeman]

"Not even Democrats would be stupid enough to let this friend of America’s enemies run their party."

Yet to be seen...

I wouldn't bet against DemonRat stupidity.

Did anyone think on Sept 12, 2001 that 15 years later one of the two parties would be championing muslims, defending them, covering up their atrocities, and selecting a radical muslim to lead them? At the time I would have thought even the democrats were not that far gone.

Then they elected Obama and his policies have been 100% in line with what a muslim would do, whether he personally is one or not. After 8 years of that, the dems have officially become their biggest supporters in America.

[faithhopecharity]

Belongs in prison not our government, IMHO. Hoping mr Trump can drain the swamp!

[Cold Heart]

Democrats, the party of evil AND stupid

[upchuck]

I wonder how long the pubbies have been sitting on this, just waiting for the right moment?

[Ozark Tom]

Only Muslims are allowed to enter the city of Mecca.

Richard Haliburton tried but failed to make it
