Just last month Grover Norquist got married after all these years.

If you look at who he married you might see where his loyalties lay.

I checked the 'about' page.. no names.. Seemed odd.. I wondered since Norquist had been single for so long if the marriage was rather like Limbaugh's marriages..

Interesting title by Norquist's bride: White House, Karl Rove denounces anti-Muslim bigotry.

I was looking for the names of those who were on the board.. the leadership.. didnt find it .. it may be there but I didnt do a thorough search..

Americans for Tax Reform President and formerly confirmed bachelor Grover Norquist is getting married April 2 at an undisclosed location in Virginia. (Gotta keep the paparazzi away, after all.) He and his fiancée, Samah Alrayyes, went to the same high school in Weston, Mass., though they did not become sweethearts until recently. Norquist is 48. Alrayyes, who works for the foreign aid agency USAID, is 31.

Weston, MA is a suburb of Boston. If Norquist was born in Sharon, PA, he seems to have moved away at an early age.

I searched for a photo of Norquist's bride but didnt come up with anything.. it is VERY strange IMO that Norquist married Samah Alrayyes a Palestinian muslim and were married by a rabbi? What sense does that make? When neither are jewish according to the link re his wedding.

I read something about Rabbi Lapin recently. First I was thinking it was that he spoke at the DeLay testimonial, but I think it was that Lapin was a recipient of Abramoff money.

Here are some interesting connections between Abramoff, DeLay and Lapin:

http://www.washingtonjewishweek.com/localstory.php?/wjw2/283229793291885.bsp

Enter Rabbi David Lapin, brother of the Christian Right's favorite Jewish clergyman, Seattle- based Rabbi Daniel Lapin, the man who introduced DeLay to Abramoff in 1994.

David Lapin is chief executive officer of Strategic Business Ethics, Inc. The Los Angeles-based company's Web site describes him as a "consultant to leaders of business and government in many parts of the world ... (who) is recognized as a profound ethicist and strategist." The Web site also pictures a smiling Lapin wearing a kippah. With Abramoff's help, Lapin in 1996 was awarded a $1.2 million contract by the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands to promote "ethics in government." The commonwealth's attorney general, Pam Brown, told The New York Times last week that her staff has yet to figure out what it was Lapin did to fulfill the contract.

Lapin and Abramoff appear joined at the hip in the Marianas case, and two of DeLay's former top aides are also a part of that mix. Interestingly, for a time while Lapin was running his business on the West Coast, he was also running Abramoff's Eshkol Academy on the East Coast, serving as its dean. As investigators mull through the short- lived school's records, it is quite possible that this end of the story will become even more convoluted.

Jack Abramoff's and David Lapin's misdeeds, if any such have occurred, will have been their own, not ours. In the end, however, we as a community will still pay a steep price for it all. If that is not a matter worthy of communal discussion and correction, it is hard to imagine what issue is.

And this: Norquist And Abramoff, Old Friends. Grover Norquist helped run Jack Abramoff's 1981 campaign for National Chairman of the College Republicans and then served as executive director of the organization under Abramoff. Abramoff served as a board member of Americans for Tax Reform (ATR), which was founded by Norquist in 1985. [National Journal, 10/11/03; The Hill, 3/26/03; http://www.atr.org/home/about/index.html]

And this:

Grover Norquist is the President of Americans for Tax Reform. Jack Abramoff and Grover Norquist have known each other since 1980 when they took over the College Republicans together.

Years later Abramoff turned to Norquist to help organize a coalition of anti-tax organizations to lobby against taxes on Indian casinos. Norquist worked with lawmakers and called editorial writers to oppose the legislation. The Choctaw Indian tribe, a client of Jack Abramoff, soon donated hundreds of thousands of dollars to Norquist's organization. (Washington Post, November 8, 2004)

Norquist is on record as saying, in 1995, "What the Republicans need is 50 Jack Abramoffs. Then this becomes a different town." More recently, in 2004, Norquist said, "To this day I can't find anything [Jack Abramoff] did or [is] accused of doing that's illegal, immoral, or fattening." (Weekly Standard, December 12, 2004)
