Novice Congressman Needs to be Relieved from Duty
American Thinker ^ | September 23, 2007 | Lori Lowenthal Marcus

Posted on 09/23/2007 4:23:05 AM PDT by vietvet67

Congressman Joe Sestak (D-PA), a former US Navy Admiral, recently revealed that he is indifferent about the well-being of US veterans of the Iraq war, that he is either careless or clueless about domestic security concerns, and that he would be grateful if voters dumped him from office. The Democrat and Republican parties apparently do not think such actions warrant even running a viable candidate against Sestak.

Is it because Sestak has connections to the powerful Wahhabi Lobby that no one cares?

Sestak, along with 3 rabidly anti-US and anti-Semitic activists, were touted as the featured speakers at Philly CAIR's first annual fundraiser on posters and internet advertisements for the event. The Council on American-Islamic Relations, CAIR, and some of its highest-level members have numerous documented connections to Hamas and its foreign funders, as well as a long history of concentrated and well-funded efforts to thwart security investigations of Muslim American terrorism suspects.

The CAIR-Sestak connection is no accident: Sestak hired the former spokesperson of Philly CAIR, Adeeba al-Zaman, to run his local office. Despite interviewing her three times, Sestak claimed he did not notice that CAIR was on al-Zaman's resume. He clearly did not question her about her activities representing that organization, and yet at a mere 23 years old, how many entries could she have had in the employment history section of her resume?

In other words, this former high-ranking military leader and US official entrusted with ensuring the security of our nation did not notice or did not care that he was hiring someone whose previous job was with an organization with well-documented connections to groups involved with international terrorism.

Isn’t this the guy they hushed up Able Danger with? Replaced Curt Weldon?

Maybe this brave, wahhabi-linked democrat will get to the bottom of the story of Able Danger, Lt. Col. Anthony Shaffer, and who knew what when.

How the hell did this traitor ever get to be an Admiral in the U.S. Navy?

And why did the morons in his district elect this fool? Who was he running against.....Charles Manson? Geez.

This guy also treats his staff like crap. Not smart since PO'd staffers can result in embarrassing articles like this:

Rep. Sestak’s staffers keep jumping ship (bad press for PA Democrat)

If the Pennsylvania voters keep on sending John Murtha to Capitol Hill, after he turns against the troops, it doesn’t surprise me that they would elect another Bozo like this one. Somebody ought to check and see what’s in the drinking water.

Once again I say that any current of former military person who is a Democrat has a self hate complex.

I can tell you it was not the drinking water. It was a well planned and financed assault on Congressman Curt Weldon by the Arkansas Mafia. Sestak was moved back to Delware County Pa. and helped by the organized Clinton team. Sandy Berger ( convicted criminal) raised funds. A raid on Weldon’s daughters home by the feds for some ambiguous thing and a newspaper helping condem her was the fatal blow to Weldons campaign. Unknown Sestak was ushered in by Democrats with the help of some West Chester Pa. GOP committee people that were working against the party. They helped turn the Pa house over to the Democrats and toss Weldon out. Sestak is a loyal Clintonista. The GOP committee people turncoats are still defiant in office and will do more damage in the future. The Chester Count GOP seem to be powerless to stop these turncoats.

Thanks for the ping, Ma.

Sestak was and is a disgrace to the uniform, as a U.S. Congressman and as an American. We can only hope the people of his district wake up and boot him in ‘08.

How’d an ass like this ever rise to the position of Admiral?

I am hoping that “cut and run” Sestak will be replaced by the present Upper Darby Police superintendent Michael Chitwood who has been mentioned as a possible candidate.
Chitwood has been getting a lot of favorable ink while cleaning “scumbags” out of his town.
If he runs and is elected to congress, he will not be yelling “Abandon Ship.” He will be shouting “Let’s get those scumbags!”
He will not be taking bribes from a boy named Hsu either.
Let’s pray that he runs and wins.

Chitwood would be a good candidate.
