Obtuse? You are the one saying that Norquist should have known they were bad guys. So I am merely asking that you prove he had such knowledge of their activties in that regard. You seem to be ducking this question - I think I probably know why. You can't. You cannot prove that Norquist had any idea that these folks were anything other than what they say they were, nor that his association with them and his outreach caused any harm to the war effort.

I read the columns in footnote 71. The only one who ever took shots at him was Michelle Malkin, and even then.

Mona Charen was the only other one who mentioned him, and she did not make call one way or the other about Norquist's actions.

Again, the only accusations I see about Norquist's actions are those coming from Gaffney. I am unaware of Pipes of Emerson making similar accusations, but compared to Gaffney, they are bit players in this drama.

Yes. I'm also saying that he actually does hang out with bad guys.

In fact, that's all we need to know: Grover Norquist rubs shoulders, frequently, with Islamists.

By all indications and common sense, he is being used by them for the access he can provide. You don't care; you don't want to look at the evidence or address it honestly. I understand. I get it.

True statement, as it was 10 months ago the last time Gaffney's stuff made the rounds at FR.

You'll likely ignore this, as you have my other questions to you on this thread, or dismiss my question here as a non-sequiter. But here goes:

Do you think Bill Clinton should have gone to Moscow as a guest of the Soviets when he was a student at Oxford?
