I'll be damned: 42 pct. of Democrat Congressmen attending J-Street Gala support HAMAS and/or are supported by CAIR

OpenSecrets.org

Alana Goodman reports at contentions that Republicans were a No-Show at the J Street Gala.

J Street doesn’t like to describe itself as a “left-wing” organization, but its gala dinner last night failed to attract a single Republican member of Congress. The only two GOP lawmakers listed as attendees at the gala — Rep. Marsha Blackburn and Rep. Jeffrey Fortenberry — have both clarified today that they didn’t actually go to the event.

The Washington Jewish Week’s Adam Kredo published a list earlier today of 56 members of Congress who attended...

 

You know how much I love a good List.  And this one corresponds somewhat neatly with Sultan Knish's list of the 54 HAMAS Congressmen or HC (many of whom were left standing even after the Republican sweep in the midterms), as well as this list of politicians supported by CAIR.

& Family Security Matters: Other U.S.-based MLT radicals include Jihad F. Saleh, a top congressional aid to U.S. Rep. Gregory Meeks (D-NY), helping fulfill the legislative goals established by CAIR founder and former chairman Omar Ahmad, who wanted increased Muslim “influence with Congress,” by using Muslims on Capitol Hill “to pressure Congress and the decision makers in America” to shift U.S. foreign policy. (P. David Gaubitz and Paul Sperry, The Muslim Mafia, p. 183) Saleh is not just a Congressional staff point man, though. He has been working closely with national CAIR official and convert Corey Saylor to increase the Muslim Congressional presence through the CAIR-backed Congressional Muslim Staffers Association.

Next, I'll have to incorporate this list from Ted Belman of the 136 Congressman who voted against Israel 1-5 times during the 11th Congress.... but maybe not today.

Because, according to the latest census, we've have a drop in population here in the St. Louis area, one of two names on the list will soon be re-districted out of a job: either Lacy Clay (my congressman) or Russ Carnahan, from the district next door. It's a shame both of them won't be gone, but half a loaf is, I suppose, better than none. What a scurvy bunch!
