Rick Perry's New Sidekick, Grover Norquist
The Dallas Observer ^ | 03/09/11 | Robert Wilonsky

Posted on 03/09/2011 8:55:07 PM PST by manic4organic

As mentioned below, Gov. Rick Perry was in town yesterday -- at Manda Machine Company, on Myrtle Springs Road near Harry Hines -- insisting, yet again, that Texas need not tap the Rainy Day Fund to deal with the state's $27-billion-ish shortfall. You can watch the entirety of his speech here, and you'll see standing behind him the man you see above: Grover Norquist, founder and president of the Americans for Tax Reform -- and the man The Huffington Post only yesterday referred to as "the most powerful Republican in America."

I firmly believe Norquist is eminently qualified to be the Anti-Christ.

“I firmly believe Norquist is eminently qualified to be the Anti-Christ.”

Or at least his first lieutenant.

Good grief, Perry. You want to leave office in disgrace? Most Texans won’t tolerate this.

Maybe Perry has converted and Norquist is his imam.

Sharia law for Texas!

Rick Perry what an open-borders RINO POS. Hanging with the friend of Islam and Hamas.

Why do Texans vote scum like this into office?

Where is that fat tub of s**t and fake pastor Rick Warren. They could have an Islam love fest in Texas.

How depressing that the Antichrist turns out to be a socially maladroit schlub. Talk about the banality of evil.

…is a board member of the ACU, and from the looks of CPAC's
covered topics and omission of discussion of jihad, it looks as if he exerts enormous
influence over David Keene, the ACU's nominal leader. Norquist and his ally Suhail
Khan seem to be in charge at CPAC - no CPAC event goes on that doesn't reflect their perspective. ….
Grover Norquist's troubling ties to Islamic supremacists and jihadists have been known
for years. He and his Palestinian wife, Samah Alrayyes, who was director of
communications for his Islamic Free Market Institute until they married in 2005, are very
active in "Muslim outreach." …..
It was Norquist who ushered these silver-tongued jihadists into the Oval Office after the
worst attack ever on American soil. ….
Grover Norquist was on the jihad payroll before and after the carnage and death of
September 11….
Norquist also introduced Nihad Awad, cofounder and executive director of the Council
on American-Islamic Relations, to President Bush. ….
It is no surprise that CPAC 2010, like CPAC 2009, had nothing addressing the war we
are actually engaged in. This is due to the influence of Norquist, Keene, and Suhail Khan,
a CPAC board member. According to Gaffney, Khan "has repeatedly been a featured
speaker at MSA, ISNA and CAIR events" - that is, Muslim Students Association, Islamic
Society of North America, and Council on American-Islamic Relations, three groups
linked to the Muslim Brotherhood, the international Islamic organization dedicated to
establishing the rule of Islamic law and the subjugation of infidels worldwide."
