What evidence is there that Grover Norquist knew about those ties or the attempt to infiltrate the chaplain corps?

I will also add that neither David Frum, Cal Thomas, or Mona Charen accused Norquist of any improprieties. Michelle Malkin and Frank Gaffney did - yet Mrs. Malkin seems to have ignored other conservatives (again reference former Congressmen Barr and Armey) who have also expressed civil liberties concerns. All she had was opposition to the Patriot Act. I supported that Act, but can recognize that some concern about civil liberties is warranted, and certainly to not object to people like Norquist, Barr, and Armey contributing to the debate on that issue. Obviously others do.

The only person accusing Norquist of anything close to impropriety is Frank Gaffney. The comparison to Gary Sick's charges, and the logic of Tom Foley stands. I also wonder why it is that debate over the Patriot Act, Islam, and immigration worries some people.

Don't be obtuse. I'm not suggesting he knew about the chaplain corps. I'm suggesting that the chaplain corps was a target. There were other targets. Norquist was one, and through him, others were accessed.

You said you read the article.

Read the footnotes. Read David Horowitz's introduction.

You're flat out wrong.
