A local delegate has asked Democratic Gov. Timothy M. Kaine to re-think his appointment of the head of the Virginia-based Muslim American Society to the Virginia Commission on Immigration.
Del. Todd Gilbert, R-Woodstock, wrote to Kaine earlier today, saying he was concerned about the appointment of Dr. Esam S. Omeish, a Northern Virginia physician and the group's president, to the panel. The commission was created earlier this year to study the impact of illegal immigration on the commonwealth.
The Muslim American Society has significant ties to the Muslim Brotherhood, a group founded in Egypt, Gilbert said.
"It is unfortunate that the Governor would choose the leader of an organization such as this to represent many the freedom-loving Muslim citizens of Virginia on this important commission," Gilbert said.
"While the Muslim American Society claims to be the innocent face of peaceful Islam in America, their history and teachings tell a much different story. Unfortunately, it is a story about which all Americans have become much too familiar -- that of the promotion of a global Islamic state. The questionable origin and teachings of this group should give the Governor some serious concerns about his recent appointment. Even though this organization has a savvy public relations machine, the public face that it projects may disguise some very troubling hidden intentions."
Gilbert asked Kaine to "take the necessary steps to ensure that the important work of the Commission is not tainted by other, more nefarious agendas."

Oh, my Gawd!
Lunacy.
Deport every Mus’y now.
Governor Kaine you frigging idiot! No way this man should be on that panel. There shouldn’t even be such a panel - it’s a sop to the illegals lobby.
F’ing Democrats. They are doing their best to get us all killed.
Not surprised they'd seek to get advice from their brethren regarding admission of illegal aliens.
Ping.
Governor Eyebrow strikes again...tell him what you think of this....

The FBI or Department of Homeland Security should investigate it all.
To think, one of the three major attacks on 9/11 occured on Virginia soil.
We have learned NOTHING.
