I have a hard to believing that even Jim Baker meant this
(CNSNews.com) – Shortly after House Speaker Rep. Nancy Pelosi took flak for her controversial visit to Damascus, House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer met in Egypt with leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood, the Islamist network that spawned Hamas.
Hoyer's spokeswoman, Stacey Bernards, was quoted Sunday as denying that the Maryland Democrat had "personal meetings" with Muslim Brotherhood members. Bernards confirmed the lawmaker had taken part in a meeting with Egyptian legislators, including Mohammed Saad el-Katatni, who heads the Brotherhood's parliamentary bloc.
The Muslim Brotherhood's website, however, referred to a "high profile meeting" between Hoyer and el-Katatni, although it said the encounter was downplayed by the Brotherhood and Hoyer's office.
The website's editor, Khaled Salam, said the meeting "clearly signals a positive shift in the attitude of both sides to explore the prospects of a more formal dialogue which hopefully will gain more supporters in the U.S. if Democrats win the White House in 2008."
Isn't that special? Meeting with a representative of the Muslim Brotherhood, who's motto states "Allah is our objective. The Prophet is our leader. Qur'an is our law. Jihad is our way. Dying in the way of Allah is our highest hope."
Well, what else would one expect from the party whose past president met with an affirmed terrorist more then any other world leader?
