Joe Walsh
FILE – In this Aug. 4, 2011 file photo, Illinois Congressman Joe Walsh speaks at a town hall meeting in Wauconda, Ill. On Wednesday, Aug. 8, 2012, Walsh, a tea-party backed politician who has acquired a reputation for contentious rhetoric during his first term, provoked outrage from religious leaders when he warned at a town hall meeting in Elk Grove Village, Ill., that there are radical Muslims in Chicago’s suburbs and around the country “trying to kill Americans every week.” He said that another Sept. 11 was an absolute certainty and that political correctness had blinded government to “a real threat” from within that could strike in virtually any community in the country.
