Taqiyya about taqiyya from Muslim group at CPAC

The Muslims For America group was distributing the above flier at the Conservative Political Conference; you can read the full text here. In 2009, when Pamela Geller brought Geert Wilders to CPAC with my assistance, Muslims For America distributed a flier claiming that Wilders had -- you guessed it -- taken Qur'an verses out of context in his film Fitna. So during my address that night I took the Tafsir al-Jalalayn, a mainstream Muslim commentary on the Qur'an, and showed that Wilders' explanation of the verses was entirely correct and in accord with mainstream Islamic understandings.

Perhaps still smarting from that very public debunking, Muslims For America included a gratuitous ad hominem attack against me, as well as Pamela Geller and Frank Gaffney, in this year's flier about taqiyya. More importantly, like Qasim Rashid in the Washington Post a couple of weeks ago, they're lying about lying in Islam. Did some marching orders go out from somewhere telling Islamic spokesmen in the West to start blowing out billows of fog about divinely-sanctioned deception in Islam?
In any case, the Muslims For America flier asserts:

TAQIYYA is a concept being heard frequently today, the idea that Muslims have a universal practice of "Taqiyya" that allows them to conceal their faith of Islam or lie to non-Muslims, for the sake of expanding the Islamic religion - a practice that commentators like Frank Gaffney, Pamela Geller, and Robert Spencer have purported to be highly practiced, with such practice particularly hinted against American Muslims, who are currently ascending our political stratospheres.
