"This is nothing short of a ridiculous smear job. Here are Geller's last lines: "Rick Perry must not be the Republican nominee. Rick Perry must not be President. Have we not had enough of this systemic sedition?" Sedition? Really? What is this charge based on? Perry gave a speech in "the company of Grover Norquist". Wow. Can Ms Geller name a Republican who has not made a speech in the company of Grover Norquist at one point or another? I am not a big fan of Norquist on many counts, but using this as the basis for her conclusion on Perry is nonsense. As for the second crime: "Perry is a friend of Aga Khan", well that must cinch the case. We are not talking about support for CAIR, or ISNA, or the AMC, or Shariah law. What Geller reveals about Perry and Khan also seems inconsequential to me- Perry makes the same milktoast comments every politician makes at one time or another to show they are not an anti-Muslim bigot. Perry, like Romney and Bachmann are all very pro-Israel, an issue that Geller cares about deeply, and seems to be ignoring when she trashes Perry with no basis, as she does in this article. Geller also ignores Perry's foreign policy team. Geller has had a good record on a lot of tough issues. This trashing of Perry is beneath her."
It turns out that Geller seems to have had her "research" done by the liberal magazine Salon, which posted a similar sharia smear label on Perry.
