I’m just another one of those racist RepubliKKKans who was rooting for Ken Blackwell, Lynn Swann and Michael Steele.

[...] A Google News search on “Strickland CAIR” done at 5:30 Thursday morning shows only my NewsBusters cross-post from Tuesday, the FrontPage item linked above, and Hot Air’s post yesterday with 6 related articles. No Ohio or National Old Media outlet is among those related articles. The same search done directly at the Columbus Dispatch comes up with — nothing: [...]

Another one here who voted for Blackwell…

Ted Strickland is a disgrace on so many levels.

The question is, if I feel this bad about having a lib democrat for my governor, how will I feel if a lib democrat wins the Presidency?

Sigh. Allah didn’t write this post. And I’ve called out GOPers in the past for this kind of thing, Debbie.

Bryan on June 20, 2007 at 12:07 PM

Sorry, Bryan, that I referred to the wrong author. And I’m calling out the GOP, not you, FYI. The GOP in Ohio has been particularly active in seeking out CAIR, well before the Dems. If you called out the Ohio GOP on CAIR, sorry I missed it.

Both sides CAIR, so long as the money/votes flow in. However, on point, we should, as was done in a fine way here, call them on it, as it happens.

If Ken Blackwell didn’t have to follow that absolute joke of a Gov. named Bob Taft he would have easily won that race. But instead we get this.

Strickland should be impeached and removed from office.

Oh, and I forgot the mention, CAIR is a terrorist supporting group, which was your posts point, Bryan.

Unfortunately, we need to keep pointing that out since vote and money, dirty or not, seems to be what Trump’s todays electorate.

Pandering is now an art form.

From now on, I will never attend any banquet without alcohol and some pork products being served.

Debbie has a point that I agree with, both parties are falling all over themselves to court the Muslim vote. Shamelessly.

Eh, there’s no need to get all sympathetic on me. I just thought it was ironic that someone who commented here to call us out didn’t even get the most basic fact about the post in question right.

Poor Bryan…

I was still addressing Allah specifically! And its been called out before, by both Bryan and Allah, I think.

Question, Why the hell would anyone bother to work with CAIR when its now public information that they only have around 1700 members?

Governor Strickland also expressed appreciation for “the Muslim traditions of strong family, hard work, and education,”

Would that be strong families of female opression and boy toys, and education filled with jihadist propoganda (only for the sons) that the governor is so proud of? But hey, they work hard and I’m sure they’ll do the jobs Americans won’t.

Don’t Blame Me… I Voted for Blackwell!

Strickland is the perfect modern Democrat governor. He campaigns on all the usual populist “you’re a victim” shit (e.g., minimum wage hike) and the masses slurp it up like melted government cheese. Then, the second he’s in office, it’s all about micromanaging the state’s “social” values; i.e., OK, I’ll admit I didn’t do jack about the economy, but I made sure all gay state employees have partner benefits! Hooray for me!

When will CARE sue this “intellectual-property infringing/diluting” group?

You can’t take a trademarked name and make up something so close to it and get away with it without a lawsuit.

Unless you are Muslim (see the Palestinian terrorists’ copyright assault via “the Jihadist Mickey the Rat” character and unusually-suprine Disney) apparently.

Politicians must have a lot of spare time. A lot of effort isgoing into “connecting and sharing” with a group that has 1700 members.

Leave it to democrats (Ohio Gov. Ted Strickland(D)) to cozy up to know terrorists…CAIR……http://www.anti-cair-net.org/

The problem with CAIR in Ohio (AND Michigan) is not just that the Democratic Governor spoke at their banquet (we expect the Dems to pander to them), but that the REPUBLICAN PARTY chairman of Ohio and elected Republican officials, have, too. Ditto in the State of Michigan, where I’ve written extensively on how Republican Party candidates and officials praise and fete CAIR. This one is, unfortunately, now a bipartisan phenomenon.

So, Allah, since you are calling out Ohio Gov. Strickland–and I agree with you on that–why is it okay that Ohio GOPers fete CAIR in exactly the same manner?

I wonder if this means Ohio State is next to have footbaths?

So, if you are a Democrat – CAIR, LaRaza, Syrian dictators, Latin American dictators = no problem.

Fox News = boycott.
