J. New Scandal: The Botched "Outreach To Muslims" Program
http://pjmedia.com/barryrubin/2013/06/04/make-room-for-islamistgate-the-obama-administrations-new-scandal/


"As these examples demonstrate, the U.S. government’s ignoring the terrorist support of its Muslim outreach partners has had a slippery-slope effect in its foreign policy by inviting members of terrorist groups and war criminals to Washington, D.C. for “dialogue.” Yet in light of Nafie Ali Nafie’s 2012 visit, there is a more direct connection to be made. The umbrella organization tasked with leading the outreach efforts to the Obama administration for the government’s Muslim outreach partners, American Muslims for Constructive Engagement (which includes ISNA, MPAC, IIIT, and CAIR as member organizations), is headed by a former high-ranking Sudanese genocide henchman. Abubakar al-Shingieti served as Sudan President al-Bashir’s spokesman and later director of public affairs until 1998. His term as one of al-Bashir’s top advisers fully coincided with the genocide of Christians and animists in southern Sudan. He came to the United States and served as editor of ISNA’s monthly magazine, Islamic Horizons, and now serves as director of IIIT in addition to his duties with American Muslims for Constructive Engagement organizing outreach to the U.S. government on behalf of the same organizations identified by federal prosecutors as fronts for the Muslim Brotherhood.[136]

Thus, the policy pronounced by the FBI in their “Touchstone” document, well established in practice during FBI Director Robert Mueller’s tenure,[137] can now justify U.S. government outreach and “dialogue” with members of terrorist organizations and mass murderers."

They are coming in too fast to keep track of. Gotta make a list.

It cannot possibly be a true surprise that a man who was raised by Communists, taught the values of Alinsky, declared his own values to be consequentialist, wanted positive rights (only those specifically allowed by government), went to black liberationist church for 20 years and denied any influence from it, and concealed all his records from birth through college... that such a man would provide such anti-liberty governing when given the chance. All these things were known prior to the first election of obama, at least by anyone who did the slightest personal vetting of the man. The MSM cannot have "not known". They are actually cut of the same cloth. And now their hero has turned on them, too.

IRS is co-managed by union bosses
"The fact that, under Executive Order 13522, federal agencies are being co-managed by union bosses and it appears that the perpetrators of the IRS scandal are likely to be members of the IRS union makes one wonder how coordinated the attacks were–especially as four of the alleged perpetrators are claiming their bosses made them do it."

The union, NTEU, is partisan to Obama and the Left.
