The Daily Caller (the GOP rag that first "reported" news of Michele Bachmann's migraines) actually gave Tom Tancredo a platform to
write this strange and paranoid screed essentially accusing Rick Perry of being a closeted Pakistani double-agent working to bring the jihad to America. (Emphasis mine.)
What is not yet as widely known about Perry is that he extends his taxpayer-funded compassion not only to illegal aliens but also to Muslim groups seeking to whitewash the violent history of that religion. Perry endorsed and facilitated the adoption in Texas public schools of a pro-Muslim curriculum unit developed by Muslim clerics in Pakistan.
Perry’s connections to Muslim groups in Texas are well documented. A recent Christian Science Monitor story said, “Perry has attended a number of Ismaili events in Texas, brokered a few agreements between the state and Ismailis (including the legislation introducing Islamic curricula into Texas schools), and even laid the first brick at the groundbreaking ceremony for an Ismaili worship center in Plano in 2005.”
I guess now we know the real reason Rick Perry wanted Texas to secede.
