CPAC panelist: GOP should reach out to Nation of Islam (e.g. Louis Farrakhan)

A panelist at this past weekend’s CPAC convention recommended that conservatives outreach to groups including Louis Farrakhan’s Nation of Islam. The speaker, CJ Jordan, was a participant on a panel moderated and organized by American Conservative Union (ACU) board member Suhail Khan entitled “Conservative Inclusion: A Roundtable Discussion”. Jordan is the president of the National Black Republican Leadership Council and was the national coordinator for African-Americans for Senator McCain during the 2008 presidential campaign.

The Nation of Islam is a racist hate group identified by the Anti Defamation League (ADL) and other watchdog groups for its active promotion of anti-Semitic conspiracy theories and its doctrinal belief that whites were created to be sub-human.

Video of Jordan’s comments is forthcoming.

Suhail Khan, who heads up the “Conservative Inclusion Coalition” and moderated two CPAC panels this past weekend, himself made news at CPAC by claiming that “there is no Muslim Brotherhood in the United States” – a story that broke exclusively here at the PJ Tatler. Khan’s laughable claim was contradicted by American Islamic Forum for Democracy president Zuhdi Jasser in an interview on today’s Glenn Beck radio program. The Chicago Tribune also ran an extensive profile of the Muslim Brotherhood in the US back in September 2004.

    I suspect Grover Norquist’s fingerprints are all over this Islamic sewer spill.

    And we are surprised that Sarahcuda won’t attend this annual bacchanal?

  3. Republicans should reach out to the Nation of Islam. Islam is a religion of peace, we are at war with terrorists who break every commandment of that great religion. If the Republican party doesn’t reach out to minorities, they will become a racist, isolationist party headed by lunatics like Pat Buchanan and Ron Paul.

    I hope everyone familliar with the history of the ADL will ask why anything written by (European descended) jewish scholars is read to the public or put in any book to discuss their role in “any” wrongdoing is instantaneously, without question, discussion, consideration or is not even publicly confronted. I’ll put my life on the line and guarantee you anyone that has “ever” heard The honorable: Louis Farrakhan speak knows that he is not only divinely charismatic but his extraordinary intelligence in conjunction with his oratory skills can convey his thoughts, message and ideas to everyone in listening range as well or better than the in most gifted speakers in the world.
