Just say no to Grover Norquist who says Obama isn't really so bad, Republicans don't need the White House. This means no gatherings at ATR offices

.
It's not surprising that self-promoter Norquist hosted a Breitbart memorial. Breitbart was coin of the realm. He was all we had against elites and now he's gone. What is sickening is that anyone who cared about Breitbart or this country attended it. What in the name of God is so hard about saying no to this creep? If Norquist can hijack Andrew Breitbart's memory so easily I see no point to anything.

"Bearing Drift has a genuinely interesting interview with Grover Norquist. GN pooh-poohs the importance of the Oval Office occupant, and says that the GOP Congress will be more crucial. Hmmm."

I could not disagree more. What cannot be done legally by this president will be done illegally with the full cover of the justice and inflexible representatives arrested under the NDAA ."

It is very troubling that conservatives still bestow any legitimacy on Grover Norquist who is, at best, a Useful Idiot of the Jihadists and, at worst, a Fellow Traveller of the Mohammedins.

I'm just trying to make the point that we should be shunning the man because of his pro-Islamic activties and associations. He is part of the problem.

It's a good point. However, the Breitbart memorial in DC was at the Americans for Tax Reform office. How far are we going with the shunning, then?

We should go as far as we need to. Norquist should be ignored.

I'm hopefully not sounding like a GN apologist here, but he's not the sort who will be ignored to good effect.
Note that he preceded Sarah Palin at CPAC12. It was not because he is a nobody.

Smitty: The reason he retains any power and influence he has is because we allow him to. He needs the same treatment given to him that Bill Buckley delivered to The John Birch Society.

Considering how unwilling Congress has been to step in and undo ANY of Prince Obama I's power grabs- and how willing the Republicans on the Judiciary Comittee were to sign off on his abysmal Supreme Court picks- I'd have to say that Brother Grover is full of cat droppings here.

I read through the link from Bob B. and although I knew GN was married to a Muslima, his deep involvement in pro-jihadist activities is remarkable. If he had his choice, the Arab-American Institue heralded Mitch Daniels, we would be in a lot of trouble. http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad...

As it is, GN is very powerful as he doles out approvals and pathways to money from his positition at the Am Tax Institute.

He thinks leadership is a lesser quality than arm-twisting. We have very little (ideological or moral based) leadership in Congress and thats why a president is important. Mittens (the likely nominee at this point) is a committee man with more of the arm-twisting qualities than innate political leadership. Fingers-crossed for November.

In reply to Smitty: He preceded Palin because he is a GOP elitist who wanted a captive audience. He blathered on way past his time when he knew we didn't want to hear him.

He preceded Palin because he has WAY too much power at CPAC, within conservative circles, in DC, ANYWHERE, and he USED Palin's spotlight to try to get a little light himself.

He is bad news and all that is wrong with DC elite conservatives."
