==========================================================
Top 10 Things Reportedly Overheard in Meetings Between Democrat Leader and
Muslim Brotherhood Representative
by Mac Johnson (more by this author)
Posted 04/11/2007 ET

Continuing the Democrat leadership's possibly felonious "foreign policy
usurper"
tour of various dictators and other leaders in the Middle East, House Majority
Leader Steny Hoyer (D.-Md.) met twice in Cairo last Thursday with Mohammed Saad
el-Katatni.

Katatni, a political leader of the outlawed Egyptian Islamist group "The Muslim
Brotherhood" is also a sitting member of the Egyptian Parliament. The
"Brotherhood" is the greatest threat to the secular government in Egypt, which
it proposes to replace with a Sunni Islamist Caliphate.

The constitutional representative of the United States in foreign policy
matters, the Secretary of State, has previously refused to meet with leaders of
the Muslim Brotherhood, to avoid increasing their stature in the Egyptian
street
and destabilizing Egypt.

Hoyer apparently has no such concerns. Although, upon taking criticism for the
meetings, Hoyer has denied that the meetings were "personal," despite the
second
meeting being one- on-one. El Katatni, on the other hand, told the Associated
Press that he was "under the impression that Hoyer had requested to talk with
him..." Perhaps Katatni didn't get the Sunday morning spin memo.

Below are the top ten things my fake sources overheard in the apparently
impersonal one-on-one conversation between Steny and Mohammed. Strangely, it's
a
little difficult to tell from the transcript which statements were made by the
Democrat and which were made by the Islamist. See if you can tell...

10. "Everything will be OK just as soon we get a Democrat in the White House."

9. "I agree: the U.S. should apologize for. what were we talking about again?"

8. "After we overcome the remaining Christians, then we can really remake the
world!"

7. "Pelosi knows who's really in charge. Did you know she has a burqa by
Prada?"

6. "Essentially, I hold my office for life. Can you believe who people will
vote
for?"

5. "Where would we be without the New York Times!"

4. "I oppose increased border security -- I have a lot of supporters sneaking
into America illegally."

3. "Murtha is a useful idiot. Stepping stones are useful, right?"

2. "I receive a ton of my contributions from cab drivers in D.C."

1. "So all you do is have your major backers break their donations up into lots
of little checks from the unions they control, and then route those as
"earmarked" for whatever candidate you want through your PAC, rather than
sending in one oversized illegal check. Then it doesn't matter what limits the
law puts on you! I'm telling you, you could learn a lot from how we do politics
in my country."
