(CNN) – Republican House Speaker John Boehner called dangerous Thursday a request from members of his own party in Congress to investigate Muslim infiltration in the U.S. government.

Admitting he had not read a letter requesting the investigation, Boehner said "I think accusations like this being thrown around are pretty dangerous."

Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann, along with four other Republican members of Congress, formally requested in June that various federal agencies investigate whether the American government has been infiltrated by Muslim extremists.

Among the issues they raise is a claim that long-time aide to Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, Huma Abedin, has three family members connected to the Muslim Brotherhood, and is at risk of being influenced by her family members. The members of Congress want to know how she holds a high level security clearance.

Good to see Bachmann embracing the role of a modern day McCarthy.

I think we should investigate the goverment for the infiltration of Christian extremists.

If Bachman would investigate the Bin Laden-Bush connection, I would be all right with it.

Stop it before it really happens. Proactive thinking.

Let me guess: There are 57 muslims infiltrating the US Congress.
