At this rate we won't make 2012.

Holder's Department of Injustice strikes again.

I've never seen such a political hack as Holder is running the DoJ.  The Senate should be ashamed of his approval, assuming even one senator was able to muster up even a resemblance to some sham shame.

This is good:

[blockquote]The joke is that a number of leaders of Islamic organizations (all of whom publicly opposed the King hearings on Muslim radicalization) were about to be indicted on terror finance support charges by the U.S. attorney’s office in Dallas, which had been investigating the case for most of the past decade.

But those indictments were scuttled last year at the direction of top-level political appointees within the Department of Justice (DOJ) — and possibly even the White House.[/blockquote]

This too:

To say things are different under Obama and Holder would be an understatement. Many of the people I work with at Justice now see CAIR not just as political allies, but ideological allies. They believe they are fighting the same revolution.

Thank you Charles. I thought I was the only one who saw the implications. We learn about a new attack upon us almost daily now.

No, y'all are not the only ones.  Problem is the too-large majority who will, and are, intently refusing delivery of the treason and infamy afoot.

We're being sold out in every possible way.

The Counterterroism Center in McLean tracks terrorist funding mechanisms around the world and leading back to this country . They can go after the individuals overseas but all they can do regarding U.S. sources or recipients is pass the information to the F.B.I. at which point the DoJ uses its own dubious discretion to detain or prosecute the idividuals here . It's a very frustrating situation .

"Elections have consequenses" Lindsey Grahamnesty, Senator from South Carolina.

Yes, even if he was the one that won election.

I think it's safe to say that our current crop in Congress have no more integrity than the last batch, minus a few "extreme" TEA Party caucus members. Oh and btw, that military leadership isn't any better.

I don't think I have enough ammo...

This topic has me steamed. Here are terrorists financing murder around the world, and the Justice Department is going after online poker. Money laundering is bad for poker companies but good for CAIR executives. The obvious disconnect for me led to the post I made here and at RedState.

Do the Republicans in the House have the guts to take on these guys? Rep. King (R-NY) needs to get involved and ask Holder under oath just what the hell is he thinking.

UPDATE: On the heels of last week’s article by Patrick Poole, Rep. Peter King (R-NY) has sent a letter to Eric Holder this morning demanding answers as to why the Department of Justice decided not to prosecute CAIR, its co-founder Omar Ahmad, and others regarding the Holy Land Foundation case.

PL has been covering CAIR & HLF for years, one of the few things they've really excelled at covering, as do other anti-jihad sites.  But this Regime is doing all it can to reward or look the other way when it comes to real criminal batsh*tcrazy outfits and instead focus on side shows that do not threaten the nation!  This Regime should be completely impeached on so many counts its sick!

From Pandora's Pajamas Media Link:

But here’s how we get twisted around our own outreach programs. About two months after all these kids disappear, the Al-Shabaab imams from all over the country get together at a meeting in Ohio, including the Minneapolis imams we’re looking at. Do we wiretap the meeting? Of course not.

Instead, a representative for the imams convinces some dimwit attorney from Homeland Security Civil Rights division to come talk at their meeting about outreach. And so they let this guy talk for about ten minutes, then he’s quickly ushered out of the building so they can get down to business. This gives them perfect cover. “Well we can’t be having a terrorist meeting because we had Homeland Security here!”

And can you guess what happened to the imam’s lackey who arranged for Homeland Security to be at that meeting? He’s now one of [Homeland Security Secretary] Napolitano’s senior advisors and running all of their Somali outreach! They gave this guy a security clearance! I’m not f***ing kidding you!

This should scare the hell out of anyone with half a brain.

[charlesoakwood]

It's not that they are played but that they are players.

Government collaborators attending the meeting intentionally gives the imams the necessary cover of legitimacy.  DOJ also covers its inaction not tapping the meeting.  One hand washes the other.

We are losing...

To what end, ya think?

Just bits and pieces.
