Snopes falsely says, “The Obama administration didn’t sue on behalf of Muslim truck drivers who refused to transport alcohol.”

In May 2013, the EEOC reported:

http://www.eeoc.gov/eeoc/newsroom/release/5-29-13.cfm

EEOC Sues Star Transport, Inc. for Religious Discrimination

Agency Charges Trucking Company Failed to Accommodate and Wrongfully Terminated Two Muslim Employees For Refusal to Deliver Alcohol Due to Religious Beliefs

Afterward, snopes reported:

http://www.snopes.com/obama-muslim-truck-drivers-lawsuit/

The Obama administration didn’t sue on behalf of Muslim truck drivers who refused to transport alcohol.

Snopes lies for Democrats. Do your own research and don’t rely on them.

Snopes if often unreliable.

On one occasion, after being puzzled by one of their assertions, I looked up who they are. It is a man and wife couple with an agenda.

From the Snopes article:

“WHAT’S TRUE: The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) represented Mahad Abass Mohamed and Abdkiarim Hassan Bulshale in a lawsuit over their former employer’s failure to accommodate their religious beliefs, and a jury awarded the pair a combined total of $240,000 in compensatory and punitive damages and back pay.”

Notice that it says this is TRUE.

The only points the Snopes article disputes is that the Obama administration filed the suit, and that it was an enforcement of Sharia law. So other than the headline, which does seem to misrepresent the content, what is Snopes wrong about?

snopes is a leftist spin rag. If they out and out lie they’ll spin it until you don’t really know what the hell is going on.

If they can back up what they say, I tend to believe them. They usually post their sources.
