JOE GARCIA, Florida Dem. Congressman Accepts Money from Radical Muslim Group

Posted By Joe Kaufman On May 30, 2014 @ 12:40 am In Daily Mailer,FrontPage

Emerge USA is a Florida-based organization whose unstated goal is to give radical Muslims a political voice in America. One way they do this is by getting their leaders placed in key positions of power. Another way is by making friends with those already in power.

United States Representative from Florida, Joe Garcia, is one of those friends. He has accepted thousands of dollars from Emerge for his 2014 reelection bid, and he has returned the favor by helping the group raise more money.

Earlier this month, Emerge held its annual fundraising dinner in Miami, at the DoubleTree Hotel and Airport Convention Center. Featured at the event was Sayed Ammar Nakshawani, an Islamic lecturer from England who is a devotee of Iran’s deceased terrorist leader Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini and who has called for the destruction of Israel.

In a speech found on YouTube and the lecture section of his website, titled ‘Sayed Khomeini’s Quds Day,’ Nakshawani states, “The shame in this world is that, if we put ourselves down to a two-state solution, we would allow a country which has broken 60 UN resolutions to have their own freedom of peace. It is barbaric that this Zionist state is allowed to continue.”

Emerge advertised Nakshawani in an event flyer as well as an Emerge-produced video of Nakshawani telling people to attend.

Given Emerge’s past, having this man speak was no surprise. What was a surprise, though, was that a sitting U.S. Congressman, Joe Garcia, would also be speaking at the event, even after the leader of his political party, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, cancelled her keynote address in front of the same group just two years prior.

One of the two co-chairmen of Emerge is South Florida attorney Khurrum Basir Wahid. According to his bio, Wahid specializes in defending “individuals charged with allegedly committing or conspiring to commit acts of terrorism.”

Wahid’s clients include: Rafiq Abdus Sabir, who received a 25 year prison sentence for conspiring to provide material support to al-Qaeda; al-Qaeda member Ahmed Omar Abu Ali, who was given a life sentence for plotting to assassinate President George W. Bush; Palestinian Islamic Jihad leader Sami al-Arian, who is presently under house arrest in Virginia; and Hafiz Muhammed Sher Ali Khan, a Miami, Florida imam who was convicted of funneling tens of thousands of dollars to the Taliban for the express purpose of murdering American troops.

Prior to helping found Emerge, Wahid was a legal advisor for the national office of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) and a director of CAIR’s Florida chapter. In 2007 and 2008, CAIR was named by the U.S. Justice Department as a co-conspirator to the financing of millions of dollars to Hamas.

In 2011, Wahid himself was placed on a U.S. government terrorist watch list.

The rest of the history

A Cuban-American faithful to the freedom cause of his country of birth and loyal to U.S. can not be also a democrat. Remember Bay of Pigs and the Missile Crisis that guarantied the permanency of an enemy Communist base at 90 miles of U.S.

There is a deep and abiding alliance between the left and the bearded savage crowd.

As a general guideline, pols get bulk of their money and maintain the loyalty required to keep it going...

‘Rats get the bulk money from trash like this raghead, in addition to unions, hollyweird, billionaires

‘Rat-lites get the bulk money from entities like the Chamber of Commerce, millionaires

GOP-tp don’t have a bulk money source, getting funds more from individuals

Every state sinate or house race, looking over the finance reports (OCPF here in MA) it’s the same thing in every instance - ‘Rats have TWICE the campaign money, or more, over the ‘Rat-lite or GOP-tp. Typical state rep race, ‘Rat will work with $60k to $80k or more, ‘Rat-lite $20-$30k, GOP-tp (when one is willing to run) somewhat less.

Both muzzies & lefties believe that “the enemy of my enemy is my friend”.

Whenever there’s a manifestation of Islamic supremacism in America, such as:

The Ground Zero mosque
The Murfreesboro TN megamosque
Disinviting of public speakers who are either Jewish or pro-Israel
Violence by the Muslim Students Association
CAIR infiltration of our public institutions
“Hezbollah High” football team’s Ramadan midnight practice and 9-11 themed T-shirts

The most strident defenders of all of the above are found on the hard Left. Their enemy is Christ Jesus.

Democratic Florida Rep. Joe Garcia — fresh off being caught eating his own earwax on camera — was caught red-handed (or is it yellow-fingered?) in another gaffe this week, claiming that low crime rates in border cities with lots of federal immigration workers is proof that “Communism works.”

JOE GARCIA AND HIS CORRUPT, PRO-CASTRO FRIEND CHARLIE RANGEL (D-NY)

Why leftists keep on finding Joe Garcia and are willing to donate to his campaign?
What do they see in Joe Garcia?
...Miami media is not investigating Joe Garcia’s sources of income and campaign contributions from people people in business with Castro.

When will the Miami media unveil the real Joe Garcia? “Garcia has yet to provide a credible explanation as to why individuals who do business with the Castro brothers and are diligently working to end the embargo against Cuba’s dictatorship would want to invest tens of thousands of dollars into his campaign after he has stated that he is opposed to lifting the embargo.”

RADICAL RANGEL (D-NY)
Rangel loves Castro: In 1995, Rangel greeted Fidel Castro with a bear hug in Harlem, New York. “Rangel, a frequent critic of the U.S. embargo against Cuba, met with Fidel Castro on a trip to the island in 2002, but only acknowledged that the Cuban government picked up part of the tab when a watchdog group began making recent inquiries.” (See sources below)
