Spineless John Mccain Denounces Michelle Bachmann over Muslim Brotherhood
breitbart.com ^ | 06/18/2011 | WILLIAM BIGELOW

John McCain has now denounced Michelle Bachmann for requesting that the State, Homeland Security, Defense and Justice Departments, investigate potential “policies and activities that appear to be the result of influence operations conducted by individuals and organizations associated with the Muslim Brotherhood.”

...

Bachmann had sent a 16-page letter to Keith Ellison, the only Muslim congressman, outlining her concerns:

“The concerns about the foreign influence of immediate family members is such a concern to the U.S. Government that it includes these factors as potentially disqualifying conditions for obtaining a security clearance, which undoubtedly Ms. Abedin has had to obtain to function in her position. For us to raise issues about a highly-based U.S. Government official with known immediate family connections to foreign extremist organizations is not a question of singling out Ms. Abedin. In fact, these questions are raised by the U.S. Government of anyone seeking a security clearance.”

This is absolutely correct. Abedin’s father, Syed Z. Abedin, founded the Institute for Muslim Minority Affairs, an organization supported by the Muslim World League, a Brotherhood organization. Her mother, Saleha Mahmoud Abedin, is a member of the Muslim Sisterhood.

No matter. McCain was in fine fettle.

Agree with you. We have to play the hand that has been dealt us. We Republicans/Conservatives (and we must join forces on this) have to be in the driver's seat in the White House after November. And then we use our power and influence to remove Boehner, McConnell, and any other RINO who leans toward muslims, socialists/communists/marxists/revolutionaries/sharia law loving enemies of the people.

McCain is such a fool.

Uh, no he's not. Using the "Flak-is-the-worst-over-the-target" theorem, it sounds like to me that Bachmann hit paydirt. Juan is dirty...we should just call him Diaper Dan!

Look up Benedict Arnold’s record prior to his becoming military governor of Philadelphia. Had he died at Saratoga, Arnold would have been one of our greatest heros. Past heroism does not prove current or future conduct.

A nuero-science CU student doesn’t sound right wing wacko to me. More to learn. My guess is a worthless feeling human who thought it cool to become part of the BatMan movie

A devout Muslim Brotherhood member just killed around 14 people in Colorado, including a one year old infant at point blank range.

I think Michele tells it like it is... too bad she messed up with a social faux pas at the Iowa State Fair.

I'd feel a lot more sympathy for her, if she hadn't behaved the way she did during the primaries. She made some incredibly sleazy attacks against Conservatives.

Unfortunately if you look around FR you’ll find few conservatives willing to do what really needs to be done which is pointing out GOP complicity and involvement.

The need to do the right thing is crushed under the weight of protecting the party.


There are plenty of FReepers who are willing to do the Right thing. Part of the problem is the pro-Romney crowd shouts them down for daring to to go against the GOP.

Those are the people who told us that we can push Romney to the right but now don't want us to.

Not a Muslim, much less Ikhwan.

Yep, the folks who don't want us to push Romney to the right because they are afraid he'll lose.

Is Keith Ellison’s disctrict overwhelmingly black? Because if it is, we will have to put up with this creep for the rest of his life. I hope we finally start making demands about muslim immigration. There are far too many muslims in America. All they have to do is crowd into one area and they can have their own congressional district or even a state. It is scarey. This is what the liberals did to Vermont. They picked a state with a small population then they overwhelmed it with NY liberals till they got the majority and now they control the state government, have representatives and two senators.

It’s their agenda to multiply and rule everyone else.

I understand... I voted for Palin... otherwise he would have not received my vote. I’d bet that you voted for Palin also.

That’s pretty much it. Just think what would have happened Palin WASN’T on the ticket 4 years ago?
