In defense of Michele Bachmann, Muslim Brotherhood probes
Politico ^ | 7/30/2012 | Newt Gingrich

Posted on 07/30/2012 10:31:03 AM PDT by sheikdetailfeather

The recent assault on the National Security Five is only the most recent example of the fear our elites have about discussing and understanding radical Islamists.

When an orchestrated assault is launched on the right to ask questions in an effort to stop members of Congress from even inquiring about a topic — you know the fix is in.

The intensity of the attack on Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-Minn.) as well as Republican Reps. Trent Franks of Arizona, Louie Gohmert of Texas, Tom Rooney of Florida and Lynn Westmoreland of Georgia is a reminder of how desperate our elites are to avoid this discussion. Yet consider this rush to silence questions in light of our history of unpleasant surprises during the Cold War.

Given all the painful things we learn about people every day and the surprises that shock even the experts (the head of the FBI anti-spy effort was a Russian spy, for example), you have to wonder why people would aggressively assert we shouldn’t ask about national security concerns.

Remember the shock in 2001 when we learned that FBI agent Robert Hanssen had been spying for 22 years — first for the Soviet Union and then the Russian Federation. This disaster came just seven years after the 1994 arrest of Aldrich Ames, a CIA counterintelligence officer who was a Soviet spy for eight years.

Have been waiting for someone in the Media to ask Romney the Muslim Question - - -

For my (retirement) money, this subject is the most important to be addressed.

They have not asked him that important question or... about Gun Control and an Assault Weapons Ban... exactly what he plans to replace obamacare with... or how he will deal with terrorism, the TSA and DHS and all of the fluster cluck surrounding that debacle... or prosecuting those that broke the law in the obama regime or... what his plans are to rid us of the Super Committee and their treason... or where he will start shrinking government and how... or... you get the picture. Generalities and Platitudes are all mitt has issued to date.

The more specific Mitt gets the more fuel he supplies to nobama for negative ads.

I think Mitt is smart to hold the specifics until the convention and afterwards.

THE UNITED WEST-SEMINAR JULY 24, 2012 - THE FIRST, SECOND, and THIRD SESSION

The American West, a group led by Tom Trento, held a seminar on the threat to the United States by Islamists, specifically, the Muslim Brotherhood, with a series of sessions led by Tom Trento and John Guandolo, former Marine and FBI Agent of 12 years.

This is an excellent series. This video is approximately 2 hours long. There are two more videos to follow. COPY this video and distribute it to all your church members, friends and family.

Ronald Reagan didn't hold back. It looks like all of the attack ads on mitt by obama have failed to do anything but spend about 130 million dollars of obama’s stash.

No, if mitt creates plans that are sound... if his plans are plans that are conservative and tried and true... then he can destroy obama by turning his negative ads back on obama with stinging rebukes of fact.

The phrase "Conservatism works every time it is tried" is a true one. We have much history to claim as our very own successes. It is mitt that we are talking about and well... he will do exactly as you think that he should do. It is afterall... the safe path. Timidity is not a sign of strength. Limbaugh says this exact same thing too... and you can add Levin into the mix as he has urged mitt to bring on the Conservative solutions and argue them passionately.
