I don't know much about him, and I didn't see the 60 minutes clip, but Norquist reportedly is a pro-Muslim sympathizer.
en.wikipedia.org
excerpt:
Norquist is the co-founder of the Islamic Free Market Institute.
In 2010, Norquist, whose wife was born into a Muslim family, emerged as the most outspoken Republican foe of politicizing the mosque-in-Manhattan issue, saying:
"This is a distraction from a winning game plan… It is very stupid, when Republicans are poised to win an overwhelming victory in November over Democratic spending, to focus attention on this issue."
He has also "announced his plan to assemble a center-right coalition to discuss pulling out of Afghanistan to save hundreds of billions of dollars."
In a CPAC 2011 speech, David Horowitz accused Norquist of having connections with the Muslim Brotherhood.

Of course, Wikipedia isn't the most accurate source of information in the world, so I'm certainly open to proof to the contrary. Is Norquist a pro-Muslim sympathizer or not? On the surface, it appears that he has betrayed conservative America to Islam, but as I indicated, I haven't delved very deeply into his background beyond the information in Wikipedia. |
