Senator Frank Gaffney in the Washington Times, 3-26-2013: quote:
Mr. Obama has now presented them with what is, arguably, his most outrageous pick to date: the nomination of Thomas Perez to become the next secretary of labor….. One other, particularly worrisome aspect of Mr. Perez’s record that should not be implicitly, let alone explicitly, endorsed by the Senate is his enthusiastic embrace of Islamists and their causes. In October 2011, HE DID SO LITERALLY WITH SUCH ENTHUSIASM THAT HE LEAPT ONTO A STAGE AT GEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY IN ORDER TO HUG THE LEADER OF THE LARGEST MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD FRONT GROUP IN THE UNITED STATES: MOHAMED MAGID, PRESIDENT OF THE ISLAMIC SOCIETY OF NORTH AMERICA. HIS DIVISION HAS ALSO INTERVENED IN COURT TO FORCE A SCHOOL IN ILLINOIS TO GIVE A NEW TEACHER TIME OFF WITH PAY TO MAKE THE PILGRIMAGE TO MECCA CALLED THE HAJJ. Washington Times Next: quote:
BUILDING MANAGERS AND LEGISLATIVE STAFFERS HAVE SOUGHT TO REASSURE SOME CONCERNED TENNESSEE LAWMAKERS THAT RECENT RENOVATIONS AT THE STATE CAPITOL DID NOT INSTALL SPECIAL FACILITIES FOR MUSLIMS TO WASH THEIR FEET BEFORE PRAYING. “I CONFIRMED WITH THE FACILITY ADMINISTRATOR FOR THE STATE CAPITOL COMPLEX THAT THE FLOOR-LEVEL SINK INSTALLED IN THE MEN’S RESTROOM OUTSIDE THE HOUSE CHAMBER IS FOR HOUSEKEEPING USE,” Legislative Administration Director Connie Ridley wrote in an email. “IT IS, IN LAYMAN’S TERMS, A MOP SINK.” The nearly $16 million renovation completed in December focused on upgrading electrical, mechanical and plumbing systems in the more than 150-year-old Capitol. Parts of the building also got new carpets, paint and security upgrades. Senate Clerk Russell Humphrey said he had been approached by a House and Senate member to inquire about the sink, which replaced a utility sink that had been mounted higher on the wall and was used for filling and emptying buckets. “There was concern about why it had been modified,” said Humphrey, who declined to identify the lawmakers or elaborate on their concerns. Sometimes A Mop Sink Is Just A Mop Sink And lastly, Glenn Beck has figured out why Rep. Michelle Bachman was to be investigated by the House Ethics Committee for alleged misuse of campaign funds. Not because, to quote the Washington Post: quote:
Peter Waldron, who served as Bachmann’s national field coordinator in the 2012 presidential race, has filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission alleging that the lawmaker’s campaign improperly used leadership PAC funds to pay presidential campaign staff. Washington Post But because SHE IS THE TARGET OF A PLOT BY MEMBERS OF THE MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD WITHIN THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION FOR BEING ANTI-ISLAM. Beck: Bachmann Ethics Investigation Is A Muslim Brotherhood Plot
