The Jihad Candidate

Joe Sestak goes much further than signing pro-hamas letters. A leader of the hamas front group CAIR hosted a fundraiser at his home for Sestak. Sestak then went on to lie about having been at this CAIR jihadist’s home. His pro-jihad leanings make Sestak a traitor and a clear and present danger to America and he therefore must be defeated. It’s a travesty that a politician will sell out his own country for muslim money. I don’t expect the MSM to cover this scandal. In the first place they back the democrats and in the second place they don’t see any problem with CAIR.

2nd Sestak scandal days before election
Unindicted terrorist co-conspirator leader claims
to have hosted home fundraiser for Democrat

Since his election to the House in 2006, Democratic Senate candidate Joe Sestak has fended off strong criticism of his relationship with the Council on American-Islamic Relations, a federally designated terrorist co-conspirator shown by FBI evidence to be a front for the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas.

Now in a tight race with Republican Pat Toomey for Sen. Arlen Specter’s open seat, a report asserting Sestak was caught in a lie – denying that he was ever in the home of the director of CAIR’s Pennsylvania chapter for a fundraiser on his behalf – has resurfaced.

CAIR Pennsylvania’s Iftekhar Hussain affirmed to WND’s Aaron Klein yesterday in a recorded interview for Klein’s WABC radio show that he hosted a fundraiser for Sestak during the 2006 congressional campaign.

But in an April 9, 2007, radio interview with WPHT’s Dom Giordano in Philadelphia, Sestak told a caller he had never been at the CAIR leader’s home. The interview, along with a recorded excerpt of a November 2006 lecture by Hussain in which the Muslim leader referred to the event, was reported at the time by Pamela Geller on her Atlas Shrugs blog.

The 2007 radio interview took place just two days after Sestak went through with a controversial decision to speak at CAIR Pennsylvania’s fundraising banquet in Philadelphia, and the freshman congressman was seeking to minimize the depth of his relationship with the controversial group.

Giordano played the 2006 clip of Hussain on his show earlier this week, and last night he aired the portion of the 2007 interview in which a caller named Brian confronted Sestak on his ties to CAIR.

“Have you ever received any funds from CAIR or have you ever been in the home of the chairman of the local CAIR?” the caller asked Sestak.

“No, I haven’t,” the congressman replied. “I’ve been in the homes of local American Muslims lots of times. As a matter of fact, they probably have given me a number of fundraisers … as the local Jewish community has during the campaign. But, no, neither of the other two.”

“You haven’t been in Mr. Hussain’s home?” Brian asked again.

“No, I honestly don’t think I have,” Sestak said. “I don’t even know where he lives.”

Sestak’s spokeswoman April Mellody told Klein yesterday she didn’t recognize Hussain’s name and was not aware of the congressman ever having been in his home. She promised to inquire further but has not responded.
