(CNN) -- House Speaker Paul Ryan sharply condemned Donald Trump, his party's front-runner presidential candidate, on Tuesday, following Trump's call to ban all Muslims from entering the United States. Ryan told members of his party at a closed door meeting that Trump's comments are "not who we are as a party" and violate the Constitution, according to Republican Rep. Matt Salmon, who attended the gathering.

Fmr.FBI Agent: We have Received 'Nearly Zero Help' from U.S. Muslim Community Since 9/11 Breitbart.com ^ | 12-7-2015 | Tony Lee / FR Posted by KeyLargo
Though President Barack Obama claimed that America must "enlist Muslim communities" to combat terrorism in his Sunday evening Oval Office address, former FBI Counterterrorism Agent John Guandolo said on Monday's Breitbart News Daily (6AM-9AM EST on Sirius XM Patriot channel 125) that since 9/11, "we collectively have received nearly zero help from the Muslim Community." Guandolo, who pointed out on Friday's Breitbart News Daily that a "vast majority" of U.S. mosques and Islamic centers are a part of a much larger "jihadi network," told host and Breitbart News Executive Chairman Stephen K. Bannon that though Muslim community leaders "certainly give the air as if they are helping," if one looks at the "major Islamic organizations, the major Islamic centers in the United States," they have "condemned all of the counter-terrorism policies and they've gotten the government to kowtow to them, to turn only to them for advice."

GOPee circling their wagons around Trump.
Hmmm....wonder if they’ll do the same to Cruz and Paul....since many of their supporters are claiming Cruz and Paul were the first to call for a ‘moratorium’ on certain refugees coming in.
C’mon, Lyin Ryan...let’s be fair. You’ve got two other candidates you need to call out.
can we get rid of ryan like we did boehner
Oh Norm, you and your strategery.
I’ll laugh my rear end off if Trump decides to break off from the GOP.
Incompetent Incumbents(R&D) are not your friends!
Those that sit in Congress and continually damage our country are the enemy.
It’ll work this time. We’ll hold their feet to the fire and keep our powder dry for the important fight to come in 18. We will have conservatism!
...some day. Just not today. We must stay the course!
Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t the Republican party early history filled with being in lock step with the wideawakes who were huge into anti-immigration especially with the irish?
“Ryan told members of his party”
Presuming these are congressmen, congress is not who we are as a country. We elect them because it is a civic duty, but Trump is exposing them big time.
That’s good to know Ryan. Thanks for the tip.
The bearded one looks like a Muzzie, don’t he.
Why would they??
1. According to google (not always reliable) there are estimated to be between 0.7 billion (700,000,000) to 1.9 billion (1,900,000,000) Muslims in the world. This is 25% of the world's population.
2. Most Muslims (one billion) live in Asia, predominately in south and southeast Asia. More than 300 million Muslims live in Sub-Saharan Africa as well.
The four largest Muslim populations are in Indonesia, Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh, each home to more than 100 million Muslims.
3. The standard definition of the Arab world comprises the 22 countries and territories of the Arab League. These Arab states occupy an area stretching from the Atlantic Ocean in the west to the Arabian Sea in the east, and from the Mediterranean Sea in the north to the Horn of Africa and the Indian Ocean in the southeast. The Arab world has a combined population of around 422 million people, with over half under 25 years of age.
=================================
I was curious as to how many Muslims we were talking about and how many of them were or were not Arabs. The results kind of surprised me as I didn't know how many NON-Arab Muslims there were.
I did have a Chinese acquaintance from Indonesia and her last name was NOT a Chinese one because the Indonesian government requries all immigrants to CHANGE their name to an Indonesian name. From Wong to Chidmat. Very strange.
And lets not forget that we just HAD to elect Romney because this idiot was a conservative who would rein in Mittens’ liberalism.
Just IMAGINE that disaster.
Obama’s “stay the course” message is now trumped.
even Boehner knew he had to at least pretend to be with GOP voters. This guy is such a PUNK.
There it is again...”Not who we are.” Just proves both sides are speaking off the same talking points memos. It’s Them (all of Them) Vs. Us.
