Grover Norquist: Married to a muslim. Founder of the islamic institute. Agenda setter, policy maker, lobbyist and overall VERY heavy hitter for the based here on American soil, muslim/islamic terrorist front group, C.A.I.R. That is who Grover Norquist is.

In that case it would only be a bludgeon if people tacitly took Norquist at his word that the pledge has been broken. What’s to putative pledge breakers from saying no, this is not a tax hike, and here’s why. It isn’t as if Norqiist has a monopoly on credibility.

This article is childish in that it pretends Norquist’s idiosyncratic views having any leverage whatsoever is him being able to “bludgeon” people with the pledge. Once again, all most people know about him is the pledge. He has not been successful in using it as a Trojan horse for farm subsidies or whatever it is he’s pushing, let alone a bludgeon. All that is required in the face of an allegation that you broke the pledge is a simpe response as to why it doesn’t qualify as a tax hike.

Considered powerful? Only by the uninitiated....or those that DO know of his proven anti-American islamic/muslim activities and just look the other way or don’t care or both.

Why the hell anyone needs a pledge to do the right thing is beyond me.

They all pledge to uphold the Constitution but as we can see that doesn't mean squat.

It's all for show. Nothing more.

“Yes, because I am not at war with Islam.”

That’s nice. Islam is still at war with you, though.

He’s powerful because he is basically blackmailing half of our legislature, and he has access to a nearly unlimited supply of lobbying cash from his Saudi buddies.

Good luck on that war against a billion people. It’ll go about as well as the “war” on drugs.

Well, there is an alternative to war with Islam. It's called "submission". Perhaps you should read up on it, if you choose not to participate in the war that Islam has declared on the rest of us. There is a handy little manual on the subject that can acquaint you with the ground rules:

SUBMISSION
