When even Grover Norquist 'isn't Conservative enough'

'One person interrupted, as I recall, and said, “C’mon, Grover, surely one day a Democrat will win the White House.”

'Norquist immediately replied: “We will make it so that a Democrat cannot govern as a Democrat.”

'The oldest and most pernicious of these modern oaths was dreamed up by Grover Norquist, the leader of Americans for Tax Reform, who has managed to get 95 percent of all Republicans in Congress to pledge never to raise taxes for any reason'.

And now.......................

'Conservative editor Joseph Farah of WorldNetDaily is calling for Norquist to be thrown out of the conservative movement that he helped build'.

'Grover Norquist is not a conservative true believer. He may have been at one time. But he is no longer – that’s for certain. Maybe, like other politicians, he’s just been around Washington too long. Here’s the scorecard you should consider':

'• He’s shockingly pro-Islamist and has used his well-developed connections in Washington to spread the tentacles of stealthy jihad through the corridors of power, including the White House'.

'• He’s is unashamedly pro-perversion, given his position on the advisory board of GOProud'.

'• And he is a phony economic conservative who helped mislead tea-party Republicans in control of the House of Representatives this year giving Obama all the money he needed to keep destroying the free-enterprise system through the end of his term'.

A lot of 'cracks' were appearing in the Norquist pledge

and Farah has little to no sway in general Republican circles. Just another minority trying to force the majority further and further right.
