Fox In Henhouse

Joe Doakes from Como Park emails
Muslim Congressman whose election was funded by terrorists is named to House Intelligence Committee with access to data on Muslim terrorists.
Shouldn’t be a problem. Remember all the Japanese-Americans appointed to War Committees after Pearl Harbor?
At the very least, it’ll save ISIS the bother of hacking into CentCom to find out what the US knows.

To be fair, there were all sorts of German-Americans intimately involved in wartime policy during both world wars.
Congressman Ellison’s problem is not that he’s Muslim; there are plenty of American Muslims who are just as American as the next guy.
It’s the fact that his relationship with chair were sponsoring organizations is “nuanced”: while he doesn’t come out of directly say he supports Hamas, preferring to claim to “support the Palestinian people”; he leaves it to the less informed to figure out on their own that “the Palestinian people” are led by Hamas, which killed off most of the competition, and allows little to no dissent.

I have come to the conclusion that while Ellison is a hard core socialist and America hater, he is not much of a Muslim. If he thought that there was a political advantage to it, he’d become a Jehovah’s Witness tomorrow.

Andre Carson does make Ellison look somewhat moderate by comparison
time to start watermarking the handouts at the committee.

I’m all for waterboarding the Democrats on that committee, Kel. :^)
(oh, you meant waterMARKING….never mind)
Seriously, there are a lot of accusations that “the other side” is getting quite a bit of information from insiders, and not just from Democrats on the intelligence committees. Probably the big issue here is that for whatever reason, responsible authorities–I’m looking at you, Eric Holder–don’t seem to be prosecuting these links.
