Why don't you be a man an accuse Norquist directly of what you think he is guilty of instead of selectively presenting information for maximum grandstanding and playing the cheap guilt by association game.

(...crickets...)

At this point, Bob, you're just compounding your earlier errors. I've been more than clear, and anyone who wades through this thread will see that your questions have been more than answered, and that your answers are less than compelling.

I've posted information and links, and you've ignored all of it, suggesting that I'm "selectively presenting information."

Fair enough. Then there should be a much larger exculpatory fact set with which you should be able to knock concerns about Norquist right out of the park.

Go for it.

So far, however, you're whiffing.

You suggested that Norquist's objections to the use of secret evidence were similar to those of Weyrich and Keene, apparently unaware that Norquist's objections were related to Al Arian's brother in law, and that Norquist received an award from one of Al Arian's organizations.

You suggested that there was nothing wrong with Qatar's funding of the Islamic Institute, apparently unaware that while at times an ally, Qatar was simultaneously funding the families of homicide bombers.

Those are just a couple of examples from today. I'm assuming you were unaware of these things, because I want to give you the benefit of the doubt.

Norquists objections were the same as Keene's, Weyrich's, other conservatives and libertarians not to mention many people on this board...portions of the Patriot Act may be unconstitutional. Now, that may not be yours or my interpretation, but there seem to be quite a few reliable people who hold that opinion. Your habit of assigning inflammatory motives using circumstantial anecdotes to people you do not know is disturbing and lends credence to your reputation as a bomb thrower.

So, when Qatar funded the II, were they Qatar the ally or Qatar the evil?

'Tooth, you remind me of the kid in Junior High that knew the name and weight of every element on the periodic table but couldn't perform the simplest experiments without knocking beakers all over the table.
