WASHINGTON -- A year ago, U.S. Rep. Sue Myrick was appointed to the House Intelligence Committee, a prestigious post she had long sought.
There, top-secret briefings unveiled truths about homegrown terrorism she had only suspected. And won't reveal.
"I can't tell you. I'm not being coy," Myrick said in an interview. "There's a threat out there to our security. ... It's worse than I thought."
Myrick, a Charlotte Republican and former mayor of the city, contends that extremists are working their way into U.S. Muslim communities, infiltrating government institutions and influencing American citizens to attack their own country. Her activism earns plaudits from some conservatives - but criticism from Muslim constituents who fear that her tone endangers a community 3 million strong and deeply imbedded in the nation's fabric. Tonight, months after pledging to do so, Myrick will meet with Charlotte's Muslim community.

criticism from Muslim constituents who fear that her tone endangers a community 3 million strong I find it interesting that her comments are what "endanger" the muslim community, and not the issue itself. But if what she says pi$$es them off, that's good enough for me. My kind of Congresscritter.

It just strikes me as another indicator of the sad state of our country when one of the few members of Congress with a spine is a woman.
Men are genetically programmed to be aggressive leaders. Our society has figured out how to overcome that in many cases.

good for her.
I could only imagine what muslims are dong to this country and it doesn’;t help when we have the justice dept and the white house helping them.
Yes the left will say that is nuts, well not it is not.
The justice dept has dropped charges against black panthers, has brought in a number of lawyers who defended these terrorist and who worked for far left groups which aide and abet these muslims.
We have the white house giving them civilian trails, miranda rights, postponing charges etc etc.
Good for her and I’m sure muslims now are trying to get into office, and other positions of power.
Did we have NAZIS working for security at airports, in the justice dept etc?
many folks had to join the NAZIS and were not killers much like the Baath party under Saddam . so when they say not all muslims are terrorist then not all NAZIS or Baath party members were killers either but we still banned them

They are 3 million and multiplying ..... which is their stated goal for taking over the US. They are always complaining, always outraged over their “rights” as stated by the Constitution of a country in which they refuse to assimilate.
If I had my way anyone here who refuses to assimilate should be sent back...and that includes Muslims who hate that their kids become “too Westernized”.

look at it this way.
Michelle Bachmann, Sarah Palin, this woman all speak out and show guts.
Contrast that to the men in the GOP who are nothing but wimps and I say this as a man and not a girlie Dem left wing man

Actually, some in the GOP, like CPAC, are worse.
CPAC supports Islamic invasion and CAIR
(at CPAC 2010, the) message there was that real conservatives dont support the war
on terror because it is a creation of the Israeli lobby which coalesces with the left-
wings new anti-Semitism against neoconservatives. Karen Kwiatkowski is a darling of
both the leftist Huffington Post and the anti-Semitic paleocon site Antiwar.com.
Grover Norquist
is a board member of the ACU, and from the looks of CPACs
covered topics and omission of discussion of jihad, it looks as if he exerts enormous
influence over David Keene, the ACUs nominal leader. Norquist and his ally Suhail
Khan seem to be in charge at CPAC no CPAC event goes on that doesnt reflect their perspective.
.
Grover Norquists troubling ties to Islamic supremacists and jihadists have been known
for years. He and his Palestinian wife, Samah Alrayyes, who was director of
communications for his Islamic Free Market Institute until they married in 2005, are very
active in Muslim outreach.
..
It was Norquist who ushered these silver-tongued jihadists into the Oval Office after the
worst attack ever on American soil.
.
Grover Norquist was on the jihad payroll before and after the carnage and death of
September 11
.
Norquist also introduced Nihad Awad, cofounder and executive director of the Council
on American-Islamic Relations, to President Bush.
.
It is no surprise that CPAC 2010, like CPAC 2009, had nothing addressing the war we
are actually engaged in. This is due to the influence of Norquist, Keene, and Suhail Khan,
a CPAC board member. According to Gaffney, Khan has repeatedly been a featured
speaker at MSA, ISNA and CAIR events that is, Muslim Students Association, Islamic
Society of North America, and Council on American-Islamic Relations, three groups
linked to the Muslim Brotherhood, the international Islamic organization dedicated to
establishing the rule of Islamic law and the subjugation of infidels worldwide.

stop all funding from overseas of religious buildings.
Here in my town we have an islamic center.
I’ve not seen a muslim in this town for years, infact even weh you go past there you only ever see one car sometimes and once I saw 5 cars and yet they have bought more land.
How, > where the hell did they get the money form to buy all that land when there is none in the town and no one goes there?
Then if muslims do not recognise this country and the laws they go back.
If muslims will not abide by the laws like getting a job as a cab driver and then saying they will not pick passengers up they go back, basically if they refuse to adapt to this country they go back.
Make a law that peoples faces should not be covered u0p for any reason and headwear in schools like the schools in my town are banned .
Mosques are to be looked at more closely and immigration form those countries should not be increased like it is under this buffoon

...extremists are working their way into U.S. Muslim communities, infiltrating government institutions and influencing American citizens to attack their own country. Do we have any evidence that Americans are stupid enough to let even one anti-American extremist into a government position where he could damage or even destroy our country?

Never mind.

A study released last month by Duke University and UNC-Chapel Hill researchers found 139 Muslim Americans involved in alleged or confirmed terrorism since 9/11. That compares with a national Muslim American population of more than 3million, said David Schanzer, lead author of the study and director of the Triangle Center on Terrorism and Homeland Security. "You have to look at the credibility of the individuals making those allegations, their motivations," Schanzer said, though he would not criticize Myrick individually.
IOW, Jihadists swim freely in their 3 million strong ocean of enablers.
Shanzer is a muslim apologist and CAIR water carrier.

I just can't get real concerned that the muslims are "wary", or upset, or offended...sorry.
With the attrocities on record that have been committed by muslims, I find it really hard to believe anything they say. If things here are "uncomfortable" for them, too bad. America shouldn't have to change over 200 years of American tradition to suit the muzzies. They can all pack up and go back to the middle east and wail their prayers until midnight.
Somestimes America is too accomodating; this is OUR house, and while vistors and new neighbors are welcome, they can't tell us how to act in our own home.
To drive that point home...just go over there and demand rights as a Christian...come morning you'll likely be missing parts from the neck, up. And they demand that WE be tolerant....
