I like to listen to talk radio. Sometimes when I am flying, I download podcasts of various programs, Mark Levin, Glenn Beck, etc. to listen to on the flight. Last week, flying home from Utah, I was listening to an interview of Frank Gaffney by Glenn Beck. The subject of the interview was Grover Norquist and his shadowy associations with a bunch of Muslim organizations including several that have been shut down after it was learned they were funneling money to Al Qaeda, Hezbollah, Hamas and the Muslim Brotherhood. It also came out that Norquist is presently on the board of directors at the NRA. I filed all of this info away for further research when I got home and had an internet connection.
Tonight I did some of that research. I had always thought of Norquist as "that lobbyist who is always fighting for lower taxes". For that reason, I had always liked him. What I found tonight is really making me reconsider. I have been looking at several right-leaning AND left-leaning web sites, as well as back issues of the mainstream press and it seems ol' Grover is quite in bed (literally) with Muslim terrorist organizations. I say "literally" because he is married to a Muslim that supports terrorism. (As though there is any Muslim that does not at least secretly support terrorism...)

The NRA has launched an investigation on him. But I am thinking if they do not act to not only remove him from board of directors, but kick him out of the organization entirely, my 2A support is going to go strictly with the Gun Owners of America.
I also learned when Grover sat on the board of directors for CPAC he was very influential in not allowing any speakers that were hostile towards Islam to have prime speaking spots at the convention.
From what I have learned in the last week, I have decided Grover Norquist is a first class dirtbag and I do not want to be associated with any organization that would have him as a member, particularly in a position of power. Please do your own research. But this goes back to what we were talking about on one of the other threads about having to clean house in the GOP before we try to clean house in the federal government.
