Good find.. now isnt this interesting? Now the question, I wonder how well 'connected' Norquist was to Gannon?

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.

That is very odd.. a Palestinian and a muslim? This makes NO sense does it.. considering his connections to the Rs..

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..

And it gets more strange:

Norquist's Wedding No official officiation

Some eyebrows were raised last weekend when The Washington Post reported that Rabbi Daniel Lapin had presided over the wedding of conservative activist Grover Norquist and Samah Alrayyes -- since neither of the newlyweds is Jewish.

But a spokesperson for Toward Tradition, the conservative political group Lapin leads, said the Orthodox rabbi merely introduced the couple at a celebration of the nuptials. Norquist and his bride were officially married by a justice of peace prior to the party.

March 8, 2005

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.

Lapin is Seattle-based? Presumably he knows Michael Medved well.

By the way, it's noticeable how many members of the board of Toward Tradition are from the state of Washington.
