Radical leftist Keth Ellison (D-MN) broke down and started crying during radical Islam hearing yesterday in Washington DC.
Ellison was crying about American-Muslim Mohammed Salman Hamdani who was killed on 9-11. Ellison sobbed:
After the tragedy some people tried to smear his character solely because of his Islamic faith. Some people spread false rumors and speculated that he was in league with the attackers only because he was Muslim.
It was a touching moment.
Too bad it was all a lie.
Matthew Shaffer at National Review has the rest of the story.
Does Ellison’s account check out with reality?
No. It is actually pretty close to the opposite of the truth. In fact, six weeks after the September 11 attacks — before Hamdani’s remains were identified, which Ellison implies to be the turning point of public perception — Congress signed the PATRIOT Act into law with this line included: “Many Arab Americans and Muslim Americans have acted heroically during the attacks on the United States, including Mohammed Salman Hamdani, a 23-year-old New Yorker of Pakistani descent, who is believed to have gone to the World Trade Center to offer rescue assistance and is now missing.” That is, Hamdani was actually singled out for particular high honors among the thousands of victims of the September 11 attacks.
There’s little evidence of the “rumors” of which Ellison speaks, either. Poke around yourself. Go to Google and search for Mohammed Salman Hamdani’s name, using various time frames from before today’s hearings (say, in the week after the September 11 attack). You’ll discover two discordant sets of returns: none for sites and news reports accusing Hamdani of being a terrorist, and many thousands of pages honoring him as a hero while claiming that he was “widely accused” of being a terrorist.
Figures.
For the record… There have been 16,921 Deadly Islamist Attacks since 9-11.

Rep. Ellison would rather have you focus on a phony Islamophobic story instead.

Sounds to me like it is Representative Ellison himself who is smearing Mohammed Salman Hamdani’s name and character with this lie. . . . . . . or is he simply trying to use him as a martyr to the cause of radical islam?
bigkahuna commented:
I wish some one had reminded him of the fact that 9-11 and about 100 othewr attacks on innocent people in the past few years alone are due to radical muslims. Stop crying like a jerk for one person who you are lying abouyt and start focusing on the fact that we are practically strip searching every airline passenger due to RADICAL muslims. We are wasting billions and billions of dollars dealing with security measures due to yep you guessed it Radical muslims. The entire world is in some measure of chaos due to RADICAL muslims. You know that small % of MUSLIMS who you claim dont represent your wonderful religion of peace. Or as I call it Religion of Pieces…as in blown to pieces.
I am sick of these clowns trying to make excuses for their religion of peace for hundreds of thousands of deaths and trillions in costs of war, security, etc etc etc.
Think about it. If you take out all the world problems due to radical muslims and muslim dictators and kings…this world would be at a relative peace. As it is the religion of peace is really the religion of cowardly war, bombing , terror and infection of these cretons is ongoing everywhere. Basically they are cockroaches. They infect everything and offer very little to the world

I do not believe Keith Ellison’s theatrics were based on a clever deceit, I think he is just a clueless tool running on empty.

Two things:
1. McCarthy was right — Soviet communists had infiltrated various sectors of the American system and were attempting to subvert it from within. Declassified VENONA documents prove this, plus KGB/NKVD archival records.
2. Taqiyyah always allows a Muslim to lie, cry crocodile tears, whatever to advance the jihad.

[As reported here on Pajamas Media, Arid Uka, who shot and killed two American servicemen at Frankfurt Airport on Wednesday, has told German police that he was motivated in part by a video that he saw showing American soldiers “plundering a house and raping a girl” in Afghanistan. According to Germany’s deputy Attorney General Rainer Griesbaum, Uka is supposed to have viewed the video on YouTube.] thanks brian de palma

I wish Rep King (R-NY), who is chairing the committee, would have done a “Joe Wilson” and said to radical leftist Rep Keth Ellison (D-MN) –
“Hey Cry-baby, You Lie!” and then set the record straight with these facts.
Time to call it as we see it!
And regarding those statistics, keep in mind that

Haven’t they been telling us the entire BILL is UNconstitutional?
donh commented:
Ellison began his crocodile tears after lifting his glasses and putting that onion paper up close to the face. Notice he cries not for the barbaric murder of an innocent muslim at the hands of Islamic Jihadis. He only cries over some bogus perceived slight by the non muslim community against one of ” his people “. He then has the hypocritical nerve to moan about people like Hamdani being limited by ethnic group stereotypes when Ellison is THE Master of organizing identity based muslim front groups.
squeaky commented:
[Hamdani's remains were recently identified, and yesterday he was memorialized by Mayor Bloomberg, Police Commissioner Ray Kelly and 500 others as another city hero.] he was missing until his remains were identified 2002. keith is just using him.

You posted this IDENTICAL comment on the previous thread and I responded to it there. The Public Health Service loan repayment program being “expanded” slightly in this bill is not part of Obamacare. It is a program that has been in effect in the US for DECADES, one that has helped to train thousands of medical personnel. And it is simple – they pay for medical training, you give them one year of your life for every year they pay for. There are several dozen medical specialties covered by this program and the entire country benefits from it. PHS provides medical services in all kinds of out-of-the-way, remote places in the US, on many Indian reservations, on Guam, in the wilds of Alaska and even in some inner cities.
As far as the program covering vets goes, vets work for the USDA in those same remote areas and vet school is every bit as expensive. They provide a vital service and in a pinch are also trained in human medicine. We generally do not allow vets to practice human medicine here, but they do in some places in Europe (not surgery).
Please find out a little bit about the program before you go getting people riled up about a program without which we would have a severe shortage of doctors and certain other medical personnel.

Gravely voice jim,
I must say I love your logic. You slam the threads over and over, accusing GP of being partisan because he didn’t report on an article that you believe is of earth shattering importance. Did you go to all the other conservative blogs that didn’t post on this issue and do the same thing?
Did you slam their threads over and over too?

Rep Ellison said that some people tried to smear him as being in league with the terrorist. That statement is true.
I am saying Jim Hoft is lying.
What Ellison said is demonstrably true.

Rep Ellison was on BOR last night. I have never seen such a slimy Democrat reveal himself as quickly as Ellison did.
I don’t care if his sob story is true or not, I really don’t. Ellison was being politically expediant and that’s it. If the good people of MN send him back to DC when his term is up, they really deserve what they get.

I am glad that I was jaded enough not to fall for his sobbing right from the start. Lying to infidels and apostates is a favorite with the Muslims. Since they believe that is just fine according to their teachings, why listen to anything they have to say when it’s most likely not the truth?
Obama Worshipping Idiot commented:
Shove up where the sun don’t shine all your threats of more violence because Americans won’t submit to your 666 tons of steaming bu!!s#it!
None of this is complicated.
People loathe muslims based on mass murders, terror and savagery muslims commit in the name of Allah. Muslims force people to be suspicious of muslims. They prove to us almost every day that they cannot be both Muslims and good Americans.
Call it what you like, but this is the truth. Islam is the only religion with doctrine, theology and legal system that mandate endless war against everyone else. All that dishonest nonsense about “good Mohammedans” . . .
It is not difficult to understand.
Fight terrorism. Load and lock. Shoot back. You are on your own while Obama’s in charge.

Many of these high profile Muslims have a veracity problem. Just saying.

Forgive me Smokey Robinson for my rendition of “Tears of a Clown” as sung tearfully by Rep. Ellison to Rep. King:
Oh yeah yeah yeah
Now if there’s a tear on my face
It’s only there trying to fool the public
But when it comes down to fooling you
Now homey that’s quite a different subject
But don’t let my sad expression
Give you the wrong impression
Really I’m glad, oh I’m gladder than glad
You’re dumb and I’m laughin’ so bad
Like an imam I pretend to be sad
Now there’s some sad things known to man
But ain’t too much sadder than
The tears of an imam, when there’s no one around
Uh hum, oh yeah baby
Now if I appear to be heartfelt
It’s only to camouflage my gladness
And homey to shield my pride I try
To cover this glee with a show of sadness
But don’t let my show convince you
That I’ve been sad since you
Decided on hearings, oh I conned you so
I’m lying and I want you to know
But for others I put on a show, ooh yeah
{repeat CHORUS}
Just like Pagliacci did
I try to keep my surface hid
Crying in the public eye
But in my lonely room I can be sly
The treachery of an imam
When there’s no one around, oh yeah, baby baby
Now if there’s a tear on my face
Don’t let my sad expression
Give you the wrong impression
Don’t let this tear I wear
Make you think that I really care
When really I’m glad…I’m laughing so bad……

Mad Hatter commented:
What we seen Ellison do is what Muslims do to push through an agenda, it’s called Taqiyya.
It is acceptable for them to lie to the infidels in order to protect and/or promote their Religion. This is part of their deception strategy in order to accomplish their goals of promoting Islam by any means necessary.
The video is 9:23 and will educate you on Taqiyya. This is what Ellison did before a Congressional hearing.
