Let’s thank the Ceiling Cat tonight for four brave Republican U.S. Reps — John Shadegg of Arizona, Paul Broun of Georgia, Trent Franks of Arizona, and Sue Myrick of North Carolina. You see, they have uncovered the most terrormorfyingest Muslamofascist plot in the history of history. It seems that the Council on American Islamic Relations has engaged in a sinister plot to take over America by…well, it’s all too shocking<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Four Republican lawmakers have accused the most prominent Islamic advocacy group in Washington of trying to plant “spies” as interns on Capitol Hill.<\/p>\n

[…]<\/p>\n

In an unusual announcement this morning, four conservative Republicans \u2014 Reps. John Shadegg (Ariz.), Paul Broun (Ga.), Trent Franks (Ariz.) and Sue Myrick (N.C.) \u2014 formally asked the House Sergeant at Arms to launch an investigation of the Center for American-Islamic Relations. They accused CAIR, a non profit group, of trying to infiltrate Capitol Hill with interns and staffers.<\/p>\n

Shadegg said Wednesday that CAIR is an organization that \u201cmembers of Congress should be aware of and that should be investigated by the Justice Department and Internal Revenue Service.\u201d<\/p>\n

[…]<\/p>\n

The proclamation from the four Republicans came in advance of a book, entitled “Muslim Mafia: Inside the Secret Underworld that’s Conspiring to Islamize America,” which includes a forward by Myrick. The author of the book, Dave Gaubatz, an anti-Islam activist who wrote last year that \u201ca vote for Hussein Obama is a vote for Sharia Law.\u201d<\/p>\n

The lawmakers also released a one page “strategy” document they said they obtained from CAIR.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Not just a strategy document. An evil<\/i> strategy document! Why, just look at the terrifying things CAIR wanted to do<\/a>! Things like, er, building a grass-roots lobbying network! And raising money! And studying the media! And blogging! And building a database! A database<\/i>!<\/p>\n

Yes, it turns out that CAIR plans to destroy America by working within the American political system to influence policy to favor the interests of their group’s members, interests like (I assume) not being denied access to flights simply because of one’s religion, or possibly the implementation of Shari’a Law. You never know.<\/p>\n

Shockingly, as part of their plan, CAIR has encouraged young American Muslims to become Congressional staffers, doing so surreptitiously, utilizing secret Muslim communications methods such as press releases<\/a> and Facebook pages<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It is a terrifying thought, but at least we’re only talking about staffers. It’s not like the International Monolithic Muslim Conspiracy has placed its dastardly saboteurs<\/a> in Congress itself<\/a>. Jeebus help us if that ever happens.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
