Poor Willard.  As always, he has a problem.  The more he tries to hide the truth about his business record, the more that big, mean Barack Obama keeps calling him out on it, making it most difficult for widdle Willard to etch his sketch!  Willard has been sniveling in overdrive, calling Obama\u2019s tactics hateful and despicable.  Willard needs to change his panties.  That\u2019s just hardball, and the pitch is right over the plate.  To see despicable, look to Willard\u2019s Republican minions, like Michele Bachmann.<\/font><\/p>\n

\"17abedin\"Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-MN) has been known<\/a> to promote paranoid conspiracy theories<\/a> and in recent weeks, she bought into one promoted by Islamophobic chieftain Frank Gaffney that the U.S. government has been infiltrated by<\/a> the Muslim Brotherhood. <\/p>\n

In letters to several government agencies demanding an investigation, Bachmann and several of her GOP colleagues targeted specific names<\/a> and individuals in the government. The letter<\/a> to the State Department Inspector General singles out Huma Abedin, deputy chief of staff for Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and asserts that Abedin is the perfect example of the Muslim Brotherhood\u2019s \u201cdeep penetration\u201d in the administration. Bachmann\u2019s letter<\/a> claims that three of Abedin\u2019s family members are connected to the Muslim Brotherhood and implies that Abedin\u2019s proximity to Clinton is no coincidence as the department has \u201ctaken actions recently that have been enormously favorable to the Muslim Brotherhood and its interests.\u201d <\/p>\n

Rep. Keith Ellison (D-MN) called out Bachmann<\/a> for her fear campaign…<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

This is just one more example of the Republican bigotry and hatred that, if anything, serve only to help the small extremist minority within Islam to recruit.<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
