A Master Manipulator

Sami Al-Arian meets a judge who sees right through him, Judge James Moody:

Your only connection to orphans and widows is that you create them.

Dr Al-Arian, as usual, you speak eloquently,. . . I find it interesting that here in public in front of everyone you praised this country . . . but that's just evidence of how you operate.. . . You are a master manipulator.

Apparently, Al-Arian has fooled a number of liberals with his shtick, presumably on the theory that anybody who hates America can't really be too bad.
