Keith Ellison, who is campaigning to become Democratic National Committee chairman, met with Hamas fundraiser Mohammed al-Hanooti at a 2009 campaign fundraiser for Virginia House of Delegates candidate Esam Omeish. Ellison was the keynote speaker at the event.

Last week Chuck Ross at The Daily Caller reported on the appearance of Ellison at the Omeish campaign event, noting that Omeish had previously called for Palestinians to follow "the jihad way" against Israel.

Given that, it's no surprise to find al-Hanooti, who styled himself as "grand mufti" of Washington D.C. and whom FBI documents identify as a top U.S. fundraiser for Hamas, at the campaign fundraiser.

The DNC Chair has been the gift that keeps on giving since ditzy DWS was there. I have a tough time believing with all these revelations especially the antisemitism Ellison will get the job.

[generally]

Shhhh.

Stop badmouthing this guy. The democrats are digging their hole deeper every day. Let them keep digging. I think Ellison would be a “wonderful” DNC chair.

[A CA Guy]

Well we know there is no pipebombs for Jesus movement.

[Red Badger]

So this guy thinks he's the Grand Muffin of DC?....................

[Steely Tom]

Hamas has a fundraiser in the United States?

An honest MSM would have done an expose on this guy long ago. He would have been arrested and deported within days.

I can dream, anyway.

The race card is going to come back and bite the Dems on the butt. The powerbrokers know full well that Ellison is poison to their party, but denying him the DNC chair will be chaotic. Pass the popcorn. The Democrat Civil War is about to commence.

We want Keith Ellison as DNC chair.

Create a disposable email account and..
Sign the petition to Appoint Keith Ellison as DNC Chair

[Brilliant]

Was just dreading that there is a growing movement in the Dem Party to deny Ellison the position. The reason? Because the Dems don’t want it to go to a sitting elected official.

Guess they are otherwise ok with him.

[butlerweave]

The Dems are still going in the wrong direction after they jumped off the cliff ,LOL

[Migraine]

We absoLUTELY want this jackjob in the DNC chair!

[Eric in the Ozarks]

He’s perfect for the job...

For the Democrats to even float the name of Ellison for the DNC Head just shows that they all have totally lost their marbles, if they ever really had them in the first place?
