were positively apoplectic when Mitt Romney chose Walid Phares
(Lebanese-American Christian and outspoken opponent of Islam) as his
foreign policy adviser. Now they are spitting nails after learning that
Romney has also been meeting with with Lt. Gen. Jerry Boykin, who has said
Islam "*should not be protected under the First Amendment.*"

*reports<http://www.politico.com/blogs/burns-haberman/2012/08/romney-held-private-denver-meeting-with-dobson-bauer-131076.html>
* today that the Republican presidential nominee met with retired Lt. Gen.
Jerry Boykin, who is now a highly controversial anti-Islam activist, in a
private conclave with four other social conservative leaders in Denver last
week. The day after the meeting reportedly took place, Romney *dodged a
question <http://www.salon.com/2012/08/03/romney_wont_condemn_bachmann/>* on
Rep. Michele Bachmann’s witch hunt against Muslims in the U.S. government.
“I’m not going to tell other people what things to talk about. Those are
not things that are part of my campaign,” he said at a press availability
about Bachmann’s allegations last Friday. Boykin is best known for earning
a public rebuke from President
Bush<http://www.nytimes.com/2003/10/23/world/bush-says-he-disagrees-with-general-s-remarks-on-religion.html>
himself
in 2003 for his vitriolic anti-Islamic rhetoric. Boykin, in uniform at the
time, gave a speech portraying the war against Islamist militants as a
Christian struggle against Satan, and suggested that Muslims worship an
”idol” and not ”a real God.”

Since then, Boykin has taken up fighting the perceived threat of Shariah
law full-time. As People for the American Way’s Right Wing Watch blog
notes, “*his rhetoric is often
bigoted<http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/romney-met-thursday-top-anti-muslim-activist-and-leading-backers-bachmann-witch-hunt>
*, and he regularly traffics in wild-eyed conspiracy theories — like the
one about Obama creating a Hitler-style militia to force Marxism on the
American people.” In 2010, he joined with Frank Gaffney, a key anti-Islamic
activist, to lead an effort to produce *a massive
report<http://www.centerforsecuritypolicy.org/upload/wysiwyg/article%20pdfs/Shariah%20-%20The%20Threat%20to%20America%20%28Team%20B%20Report%29%2009142010.pdf>
* on the threat of Sharia law.
For all this, he was *forced to
withdraw<http://www.nytimes.com/2012/01/31/us/lt-gen-william-boykin-known-for-anti-muslim-remarks-cancels-west-point-talk.html>
* from a speaking invitation at West Point under intense pressure *(by
Obama and terror-linked CAIR) * in January of this year. More recently, he
was
appointed<http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/07/19/william-jerry-boykin-family-research-council_n_1684706.html>
to
a senior position at the social conservative Family Research Council. And
that’s how he ended up meeting privately with Romney.

Two other members of the group that met with Romney, social conservative
activists Gary Bauer and James Dobson, signed on to *a letter to House
Speaker John
Boehner<http://www.theblaze.com/stories/conservative-leaders-write-boehner-supporting-bachmann-in-muslim-brotherhood-letters-controversy/>
* praising Bachmann’s “good judgment, undeniable courage, and great
patriotism” for “bravely demanding answers” about potential Muslim
Brotherhood infiltration in the U.S. government. Boykin, Right Wing Watch
notes, signed on to a separate letter expressing “strong support for
congressional efforts to illuminate and address the danger posed by
influence operations mounted by the Muslim Brotherhood against government
agencies.” Boykin’s rhetoric goes beyond the careful position most
activists tend to stake out — condemn Islamists, but praise “peaceful,
pro-America” Muslims. Boykin, on the other hand, goes right after the
religion itself, saying Islam “*should not be protected under the First
Amendment<http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/boykin-islam-should-not-be-protected-under-first-amendment>
*.” He’s declared that there should be “*no mosques in
America<http://www.rightwingwatch.org/content/boykin-no-mosques-america>
*” because “a mosque is an embassy for Islam and they recognize only a
global caliphate.”
