Useful CAIR "tool" Saqib Ali is welcome to go back to wherever he's from...where he can impose his shariah blasphemy laws as much as he wants. Until further notice, this is AMERICA.
“Maryland Muslim legislator attempting to silence Republican Club”
By Ann Corcoran, Potomac Tea Party Report
It is unimaginable that a Republican would have the audacity to oppose a speaker at a Democratic Club event, but Democrats, like Montgomery County’s Saqib Ali, apparently have no hesitancy in attempting to silence those with whom they disagree. He must be learning from fellow Montgomery Countian, Joe “the Silencer” Sandler,* that if you don’t like what is being said, you shut down free speech.
Here is a story from the Chevy Chase Patch about Democrat Ali putting pressure on a Republican Women’s Club to dis-invite former Congressman Fred Grandy from speaking at an event in September.
The Chevy Chase Women’s Republican Club’s invitation to Fred Grandy to speak at a club function has not gone over well with Montgomery County Democrats.
Fred Grandy, a former member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Iowa, is scheduled to be the featured speaker for the Chevy Chase Women’s Republican Club on Sept. 24.
Grandy recently left his job as a morning radio talk show host for WMAL in the Washington, DC, metropolitan area.
Grandy has said that he was forced out, but WMAL said that he left on his own. [Based on what Ali is doing here, it sure looks like Grandy was forced out!---ed]
The club, which is private and membership-based, often invites prominent Republicans to speak at club functions.
Still, liberals in the area are voicing concern over the club’s choice of speaker.
A blog post on MarylandJuice.com sounded an online alarm Friday, and Democrat Saqib Ali, a member of the Maryland House of Delegates from 2007 to 2011 representing Gaithersburg and Germantown, spoke to Chevy Chase Patch about the matter earlier this week.
“Clearly, Republicans are too embarrassed to expose it to public scrutiny,” Ali wrote in an email. “Using phrases like ‘Shariah-compliant’ to refer to American Muslims is bigotry. Complaining that American Muslims are in government is bigotry.”
Ali added: “Why are Republicans inviting bigots to address their meetings?” [Why is whatever they do your business?---ed]
Ali: If I don’t get my way, I’ll picket!
“If I’m unsuccessful at this effort [to get the event canceled],” Ali said, “I will certainly be there with picketers. … I will not let Montgomery County become a home for hate.”
