A Republican lawmaker is accusing the White House of “unconscionable” and “illegal” acts for its role in Kenya's referendum on a new constitution, which would legalize abortion in the country for the first time.
Rep. Chris Smith of New Jersey cited a report by the U.S. Agency for International Development, or USAID, that estimated that more than $23 million in U.S. taxpayer funds have been spent on the referendum. Smith and other conservatives have complained that at least some of that money has been spent in support of the proposed constitution, possibly violating U.S. law.
“Under no circumstances should the U.S. government take sides,” Smith said at a news conference Wednesday. “Yet that is precisely what the Obama administration has done.”
He and other lawmakers have accused the Obama administration of offering incentives to Kenya to approve the controversial new constitution, promising that passage would “allow money to flow” into the nation's coffers. A federal law known as the Siljander Amendment makes it illegal for the U.S. government to lobby on abortion in other countries.

So what is Congress going to do about it? It needs to go to the courts..........NOW.
The liberals will go to the end of the earth to make abortion legal. I have a simple scientific argument for the abortion supporters:
1. Is the fetus’s DNA human DNA? Yes.
2. Is that DNA the same as the mother’s DNA? No.
3. Does that tell you anything?
This has nothing to do with religion or privacy or whatever. If DNA was known as a way to tell people apart back in 1973, we might never had had abortion legal in the US. I am against abortion except when the life of the mother is in danger and, thanks to modern medicine, that is very rare...
Why can we not understand the way of the world? If a Bush had done this, or Ronald Reagan, there would be the hue and cry would echo. But a Democrat did this. It’s all for the good of... Barack Obama, a Democrat. So it’s OK. Not to worry.
Obviously, the Liberal propaganda media will cover this up. All verifiable instances of obvious theft of taxpayer dollars should be sent to Drudge, Rush, Beck, et al. Copy the link to this thread and send it to your address list and ask everyone to forward the link to their address list. The American people must be informed; those in the MSM, aiding and supporting the Ruling Class, won’t do it.
The Ruling Class must be thrown out of office starting November 2nd. In the case of the mainstream media, Americans must spread the word and circumvent the liars in journalism.
Where were our “principled conservatives” — I won’t even mention Juan McCain — when Obozo was out campaigning for communist thug Raila Odinga on U.S. taxpayer dime during the election in 2007/2008?!
Just more proof to me that the “usurper” is a Kenyan and not American.
The Left’s strategy of controlling black births — in place since the founding of “Planned Parenthood — continues ...
It makes sense, though. In America, half of all black children never survive until they make it out of the womb. They are aborted by their mothers. But in Kenya, very few are aborted. So if the US government spends $23 M dollars to change the constitution to allow abortions, a hugely disproportionate effect can occur. Lots and lots of black children can be aborted that might otherwise be around later producing carbon dioxide, using scarce resources and otherwise threatening the delicate environmental balance. Obama is leveraging taxpayer dollars to achieve the goal of Margaret Sanger’s Planned Parenthood organization to reduce the number of undesirable breeders and useless mouths. Neat, huh? Great guy, that President Obama!
Just fire up the IMPEACHMENT PROGRAM and let the chips fall where they may—it is time some republicans stood up and did what needs to be done—You can bet your bippy the demorats would do it to a repub president if the situation were reversed.
Yes, your are right.....It is part of their major agenda.
...the Siljander Amendment...
Interesting.
I wonder if this Siljander is the former Republican Congressman from
Michigan that recently was convicted on two charges regarding his
involvement with an “Islamic Charity” here in Columbia, MO.

Tip of the iceberg. What about this?
This is what Obama is doing with American taxpayer’s money while they lose their jobs and homes:
BILLIONS for jihad:
Obama’s 2009 Supplemental Appropriations for Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Pandemic Flu was revised and “passed by the full committee.” Not sure what the next step is, but based on the summary, it gives billions http://creepingsharia.wordpress.com/2009/05/13/obamas-supplemental-bill-passes-gives-billions-to-enemies/
of U.S. taxpayer dollars to countries and entities that support Sharia law and/or harbor, hide and support those who want to destroy the U.S. and our allies.

Mixed emotions.
Good work VOA,
Mark Deli Siljander (born June 11, 1951) is a former Republican U.S. Representative and deputy United Nations ambassador from the state of Michigan who was convicted of obstruction of justice and acting as an unregistered foreign agent related to his work for an Islamic charity with ties to international terrorism. Siljander pleaded guilty to the charges in Federal court on July 7, 2010.
Siljander pleaded guilty last week!
What a strong faith he had. /sarc
The undocumented Muslim doesn’t want his Kenyan brothers and sisters to be ‘punished with babies’.
“
Good work VOA,
“
You are too kind.
I had a bit of an advantage as my parents in Columbia, MO witnessed a
swarm of FBI agents raiding the house of one of the leaders of that
“Islamic Charity”.
Siljander sounds like a soul that REALLY lost his way.
For the forum, here’s a “Discover The Networks” (via David Horowitz)
summary about the Islamic Charity.
