"SNIP...................
Representatives of prominent conservative groups converged on the Heritage Foundation on Monday afternoon for the umpteenth in a series of gatherings to draw attention to the Benghazi controversy.
But this one took an unexpected turn.
What began as a session purportedly about unanswered questions surrounding the September 2012 attacks on U.S. facilities in Libya deteriorated into the ugly taunting of a woman in the room who wore an Islamic head covering.
The session, as usual, quickly moved beyond the specifics of the assaults that left four Americans dead to accusations about the Muslim Brotherhood infiltrating the Obama administration, President Obama funding jihadists in their quest to destroy the United States, Obama and Hillary Rodham Clinton attempting to impose Sharia blasphemy laws on Americans and Al Jazeera America being an organ of enemy propaganda.

muslims from going abroad to do jihad and bringing it home if there is such seething hate for all things muslim in such a vast number of Americans?

15-25% of the Muslim population (which would be a couple HUNDRED MILLION) are the problem, the radicals, the ones who want to destroy the West...Jesus on a Popsicle, what nonsense!
She went on to say the hell with political correctness we have to go after the Muslims...
Typical fucking rightwing nonsense.

So the conclusion is these are the smartest of conservatives? I'm not surprised...
