California congressman Darrell Issa and Attorney General Eric Holder are not friends. Issa, the Republican chairman of the House Oversight Committee, has pestered Holder about the controversial Fast and Furious gun-walking program for years. His committee even voted to hold Holder in contempt for his refusal to turn over certain documents. During a hearing today, Holder's feelings for Issa burst out into the open when he called the congressman's behavior "unacceptable" and "shameful," and, getting more personal, "too consistent with the way in which you conduct yourself as a member of Congress."
Thanks a ton for the bad news. No chance for sleep tonight now. I pray that you are wrong. I'll keep reading and be here all night Spaulding.
onyx, please see post #40.
Issa’s paternal grandparents were Lebanese immigrants who both belonged to the Greek Orthodox Church of Antioch known as the “Antiochian Orthodox” community.
spaulding, you’d better be able to prove he’s connected to the Muslim Brotherhood or feels soft toward them.
Please let me know (if you remember) any outcome of this. I have never, ever caught a whiff that Issa is a Mozlem sympathizer. Many Lebanese (especailly ones over in the US) are Christian and I cannot imagine a Lebanese Christian sympathizing with Arafat or any other Mozlem radical.
Thanks for the info, onyx. I cannot imagine that any CHristian of Lebanese ancestry would have leanings towards the MB.
That troll, Debbie Schlussel, and all of her columns are banned from here, for GOOD reason. Lies and gossip.
I didn’t realize she was banned. Apologies for the link.
No problem!
You sure talk a lot of horseshit about Issa to not know enough to know he is of Antiochian and Mormon stock and half Lebanese ethnic and quite rich
And that outside the US most places pronounce it Issa with a short “i” like in “it”.or “is”...not long “i” like eye-sa
Issa’s paternal grandparents were Lebanese immigrants who both belonged to the Greek Orthodox Church of Antioch known as the “Antiochian Orthodox” community.
Exact-a-mundo....
Or as Bill Clinton would say, it depends on what the pronunciation of “is” is.
Pretty big statement there.......care to provide a few footnotes other than Schussel?
When anyone at FR uses terms like “Troll”, referring to someone who, to my knowledge, doesn’t post at FR, it raises the specter of Alinsky rules. If there is “GOOD Reason” for Schlussel’s banning, why not provide a citation? FR is teeming with Obots with whom I have bantered for years. Their misdirection often forces one to read more deeply into original sources. But with current events most of what the media provide are filtered by progressives, who today are aligned with Muslims or their front groups, so Schlussel is one of few who will attack the fellow travelers directly, and she can be nasty. So many of those we assumed would defend our Constitution have not had the courage, probably because they know the power of the IRS and Justice department to destroy lives. Schlussel is an attorney, who appears capable of defending herself, which is probably part of why she is so hated.
I didn’t mention Schlussel, others did, but she was certainly one of the few to examine and expose Issa’s record. When reading Schlussel, whose sources I always check, since I like some of those whose integrity she has attacked, like Whalid Shoebat and Pam Geller, I read carefully. Issa’s reference to Israel’s “Aparthied” policy (http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/08/15/AR2006081501015.html) and his slip about 9/11 as reported in the NY Daily News (http://www.nydailynews.com/news/gop-rep-darrell-issa-fire-9-11-comments-article-1.277799), could be dismissed as slips, but slips are often revealing. Recall John Brennan’s speech, partly in Arabic, to a Cair-sponsored group in New York (City College perhaps), in which Brennan refers to “Al Quds”. Only a Muslim sympathizer would refer to Jerusalem, which existed as a Jewish city thousands of years before Islam was created, and a Christian city, at times for a thousand years before Islam, would use the term.
As for citations, and there have been many, revealing Brennan’s Muslim conversion, the latest was Admiral James Lyons at a news conference around the possible criminal cover up of the downing of an unarmored helicopter in Afghanistan that cost us more lives of “Special Operative” forces than any incident in US military history. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0-HL_NvX7Lk) You can also hear John Guandolo, formerly, before Obama and the Organization of Islamic Conference, probably the name for the new Caliphate, approached Brennan to cauterize our intelligence documents, the source for the FBI training manual on Islamic Terrorism. Guandolo says his CIA sources won’t, of course, testify publically, but said that the CIA associates, while Brennan was CIA Chief Of Station in Riyadh, were invited, and present for his conversion. He also said the Brennan wasn’t the only CIA agent converted!
As for Obama’s Muslim support through college, while the al-Mansour YouTube video in which al-Mansour/Don Warden, casually mentions meeting Barrack (he referred to Obama as Barack, though he was known as Barry according to his own biography), was scrubbed, some of us have archived the video. Percy Sutton’s description of Prince bin-Talal’s patronage is on YouTube today, and ignored by the media. Should that be any surprise? It is no longer a secret that virtually all the major networks literally have family working at the highest levels of this government.
Jack Cashill revealed the Vernon Jarrett Chicago Trib. article. He cited Frank Mieli as the original source. Frank, a former NY reporter, located the Vernon Jarrett article in the archives of a little Florida paper which Obama’s scrubbers, who behave “like” the CIA, hadn’t gotten to, since the Chicago Tribune had scrubbed the original. The article is public, and if you aren’t just running your own interference, wasting people’s time, you’ll follow the path through the excellent Jack Cashill blog.
Issa’s behavior reminds this writer, since childhood a fan of middle an long distance running, of the wonderful East African runners, Ethiopian and Kenyan, whose frequent tactic is to have a team member take the lead in a race, say 5000 meters, and slow the race down, knowing that another team member has a “kick” almost sure to win the race. Today they race for prize money as well as glory. It is a perfectly “fair” tactic. Issa took the lead in the Benghazi investigation, but then nothing happened until the whistle blowers put their futures and lives on the line. If Issa is part of the cabal around Grover Norquist I don’t know about it. But until Norquist and Suhail Khan banned Geller and Robert Spencer from CPAC, who knew? I simply caution expecting anything from Issa except a subtle form of disruption, because of his honest admiration for Yasser Arafat, the nephew of the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, co-founder of the Muslim Brotherhood, and advisor to Goebbels and Hitler implementing the “Grand Solution.”
Eastern Christians are not always anti-Semitic, but Middle Eastern Jews know that is often the case. The religious and political currents are amazingly complicated. The Druze, with some Christian origins, fight in the IDF, but many are anti-Zionist. Muslim Arabs have seats in the Knesset and make no secret of their disapproval of the state that protects them. So do many Ultra-Orthodox Jews, who spend their days in taxpayer funded religious schools reciting Torah and Talmud while on welfare, and exempt from military service. Issa has told us enough just with his mention of “Apartheid” that one should expect nothing out of his investigation of Benghazi. One would expect his allegiance to be with Hezbollah, Shia-based, and not with the Muslim-Brotherhood. The Benghazi attack may have been Shia inspired because Obama’s support is for the Sunni faction in Syria (and everywhere else). Al-Qaeda may have objected to arms being sent through Turkey to Sunni-sponsored military groups fighting to remove Syria from under the wing of Iran to the growing number of Muslim Brotherhood states created with Obama’s assistance, and supported by our military, CIA, and taxpayer monies. Obama’s father, if we believe him, is Sunni, as are Brennan, and Huma Abedin, and virtually all the Mosques in the US (grown from about 1000 in 2002 to 2400+ today, from a CNS news article.) Our intelligence apparatus has been thoroughly compromised. Listen the six Steven Coughlin lectures or the ten Frank Gaffney lectures on the Muslim Brotherhood and Sharia. Coughlin’s are remarkably concise, and both are thoroughly documented, and both on YouTube - for the moment.
Let's see. You are making all kinds of wild claims about Darrell Issa, but haven't even bothered to find out if he's Christian or Muslim? That doesn't inspire confidence in your opinions.
Your posters and bumpersticker s are amazing!!! If only I had the ovaries to put that on my car!
You don’t put it on YOUR car.
You put it on someone ELSE’S car. ;)
Ask Jim Robinson and please don’t post any more of your Issa “concerns” to me. Thanks very much.
