Is Huma Abedin the New Alger Hiss?

Washington GOP Establishment hits Bachmann for fighting Muslim Brotherhood.

Is Huma Abedin the new Alger Hiss?

Is Huma Abedin to the Muslim Brotherhood what Alger Hiss was to the Soviet Union?

Why are Republican Senator John McCain, Republican Speaker of the House John Boehner and House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Rodgers (R-MI) acting in the growing Abedin controversy as Washington Establishment Democrats of the 1940s did in the Hiss episode? Which is to say, writing off the dangers of a foreign enemy whose goal is to infiltrate the U.S. government -- because, well, the people in question are part of the Washington Establishment?

And last but certainly not least, why is the Republican Establishment pursuing a losing strategy in the war against Islamic radicalism? Is it returning to the losing strategy it pursued during the Cold War -- a strategy that was overturned over Establishment opposition by Ronald Reagan's victorious "we win, they lose" strategy?

These questions arise because of McCain's vehement attack on Minnesota Congresswoman Michele Bachmann. Bachmann, along with four other conservative House members (Louis Gohmert of Texas, Trent Franks of Arizona, Thomas Rooney of Florida and Lynn Westmoreland of Georgia), has written a series of hotly controversial letters.

What did Bachmann and the others do to infuriate McCain? And draw a rebuke from Boehner and Rodgers?

The comparison is not perfect. I am unaware of communist influence in the GOP. However, there are Muslim Brotherhood affiliated people with far too much influence in the GOP. 9/11 has changed nothing. American blood is cheap. Breaking social rank, class consciousness, and political correctness is expensive.

Is Huma Abedin the New Alger Hiss?

Yes. And the elitists are having another Hiss-y fit trying to shield one of their own.

That's precisely the parallel.

And all of Leftdom (including Manchurian John) are whining, "Have you at last no decency, sir?"

Huma's mother is BFF with the Egyptian ruler, while Huma is Hillary's 48-piece socket set.

Enemy in the gates, feeding classified information to the enemy and subverting U.S. foreign policy.

RE: "It was HCUA, only the leftists/communists say it as HUAC"

The House Committee on Un-American Activities, correct! and it is important.

I do not recall any recent conservative radio show emphasize that fact. They all just say HUAC or un-American activities (committee) which is exactly what the CP/USA wanted.

CP/USA invented the pejorative "McCarthyism" if I remember correctly.
