For anyone going to the upcoming Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC), I’m sure by now you’re aware that there will be no panels conducted regarding the threat of Islam this year. All of our leading experts on Islam–Robert Spencer, Pamela Geller, Frank Gaffney and others–have been banned from speaking and/or holding panels.
Unfortunately, many Conservatives still arent aware that two of the most influential organizers of CPACseemingly innocuous tax guru Grover Norquist and former aide in the Bush administration Suhail Khanare fighting together to eliminate any dissenting voices about the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood in America. Why is this?
Last year, I personally learned firsthand that no one—not even a simple blogger like meis allowed to even question the threat of Islam in America at CPAC. In a very small panel moderated by Suhail Khan, I asked him about his previous years statement at CPAC, in which he told the press, There is no Muslim Brotherhood in America. I reminded Khan that the Muslim Brotherhood via CAIR has said, “Yes, we are here in America, along with four federal U.S. judges who also declared the same. So when I asked Khan if he wanted to retract his very dangerous statement–which I believe is the same as telling someone there aren’t any snakes in a room full of snakeswithout answering my question, I was asked to leave the conference room and I was ridiculed by Khan and his followers.
For the record, educating Americans about Islam and Sharia has nothing to do with being “anti-Muslim” or any type of bigotry, as both Khan and Norquist have accused their opposers as being. This is about public awareness and understanding who our enemy really is–and burying our heads in the sand about the very real influence of Islam in America will not protect us from those ‘thousand paper cuts from within’.
This week my PolitiChick co-anchor Morgan Brittany and I will be reporting from CPAC and we will not allow this blacklisting of our foremost American experts on Islam to go unnoticed. For all bloggers and videographers who are attending, I hope you’ll join us in asking our Conservative leaders the following questions over and over:
Below is the PolitiChicks episode regarding my confrontation with Khan at CPAC last year, followed by a transcript of the exchange (with apologies for the audio):
A-M: Last year you said there is no Muslim Brotherhood in the United States but the Muslim Brotherhood themselves have said that 29 Muslim-American organizations are–they describe them as being ‘our organizations and the organizations of our friends. These include the Islamic Society of North America; the Council on American Islamic Relations; the North American Islamic Trust and four federal judges have confirmed that these organizations are friends of the Muslim Brotherhood. So do you stand by your statement that there is no Muslim Brotherhood in America?
Suhail: Maam what this panel is about is conservative inclusion
A-M: Should they [the Muslim Brotherhood] be included in conservative politics?
Woman on front row: Thats not what this is about!
Suhail: Thats not what this panels about so if you want to take up those questions with other people you can. Were here to talk about conservative message Americans so if your group, and other Alinsky-like factionsI can see where you come from.
Woman on front row: Please leave!
When did Grover and Suhail (??) take over CPAC?
I had to keep replaying when Suhail accused the polite CPAC attendee of using Alinsky tactics!! Unbelievable. Wake up, folks.
Love it, thank you.
Guys, wish you were around today!
“I get occasional email to one of my throwaway email addresses from an outfit calling themselves the Tea Party Patriots. They are constantly crying for money.
Their latest email, which I deleted and wish now I hadn’t, made a big deal of how they are going to be at CPAC and want to meet all their admirers, prolly so they can beg for more money.
IMHO, CPAC has become nothing more than a commercial for Moslems and queers. “

I’m still sorting this out, but I think Tea Party patriots is the legit group that is here on FR. Fund raising is fine, it’s the corruption of the ones that HAVE NO interest in grass roots tea party and on one hand are undermining it. They are Teaparty.net & TPNN and they have fundraising to a whole other level. It’s ALL they do. They are the ones running CPAC. However, I have not been able to get them to denounce teaparty.net and I’ve asked in emails several times.
‘
“We should be advocating for government foreign policy that makes Muslim radicals pay for persecuting Christians (and Jews and others along the way) at CPAC.”
Sara, do you understand that the people running CPAC ARE the radical islamists?? Open border, radical Islamists! THAT’s the problem! It’s not a conspiracy theory. And their using the tea party name to raise funds to do it!

Re: “I hope conservatives can abandon CPAC and start a new one”
Good luck with that.
As soon as you do, they’ll infiltrate and co opt that too.
Communists and Muslims are experts at those tactics, and we don’t seem to have a clue how to defend against them.
Thanks for the info. If it features Miss Lindsey Graham, I don’t know how much use it will be.
It’s bad. Conservatives have been totally undermined everywhere.
Aunt B, why should I believe anything you say when I heard CPAC talking about the threat of Islam yesterday and again today?
I have take grief from some, and even called a racist because I say Islam should be outlawed in the US.
The intent of Islam is to undermine the Constitution of the US and it is illegal. If I were in charge, all Muslims would be deported.

WHO at CPAC?? It sure as hell wasn’t Grover Norquist or Suhail Khan! Don’t believe ME! You’d be stupid to believe ANY one person! READ, study, find the truth. Wake the hell up!

I pinged you to a thread that showed a group was going in without the powers that be at cpac to talk about radical islam!

Good greif! Did you see the checks a CONVICTED ISLAMIST gave Grover Norquist for HIS ISLAMIC SOCIETY????
I don’t have to make up anything! I thought you were disgusted with all us crazy freepers and were leaving??
Go take your sillyness away from me, you can’t handle the truth. This country suffers because of people like YOU!
There are MILLIONS of people out there hungry for this information, and in all the years I’ve presented it, YOU are the ONLY one to react like this.. ONLY YOU! I won’t waste one more minute on you.
I agree with conseravtivegreatgrandma -
Norquist is a buzzard, no doubt, but I watched CPAC address Bammy’s Muslim radical wackos in their speeches. Specifically, Breitbart’s editor jumped on them for their effort to impose Shiarah law on speech in America.
Now, I very much share your disdain for Islam. I have been called a racist because I believe Islam should be outlawed in the US because they have stated their desire is to replace our Constitution with Sharia law. We are stupid to even allow them to have built even one mosque in the US. I have even suggested we use pigs to get rid of Islam. I do not want these savages in my country.
Ever hear of Grover Norquist? How about Chris El-Christie, the Muslim loving governor of New Jersey.
I would give them three choices - pick any other religion to convert to, get the hell out of my country, and I will leave the third option to your imagination.
Their religion is a cult of death, oppression and hate and needs to be extinguished.
“Norquist is a buzzard, no doubt, but I watched CPAC address Bammys Muslim radical wackos in their speeches. Specifically, Breitbarts editor jumped on them for their effort to impose Shiarah law on speech in America.”
Yes, Brietbart!!! NOT anyone in charge of CPAC! All the good guys are trying to put this in their speeches...nevertheless, the people who study and deal with radical islam were all told to go away!! WHAT part of that can you not understand??? You didn’t see ‘’CPAC’’ mention Norquists radical muslim ties, did ya???
You two go ahead, keep us in the stone age. Might as well be using tin cans and a string to communicate with some people.
I hope so. Islam should not even be allowed in the US.
I totally share your concern about Islam and Norquist is a huge suspect, too, but I have a real problem with those who jump to conclusions. It looks like you WANT to believe the worst about ALL Republicans. Why?
I am confused as to how they reconcile these conflicting positions.
Thanks for that information!
I apparently zoomed right past the ping back when you did it...
