ANYBODY HERE LOOK FAMILIAR? (Obama knew the Salahi's in 2005)
True Conservatives On Twitter ^ | January 5, 2010 | ConservativeGal

ANYBODY HERE LOOK FAMILIAR?Posted by ConservativeGal on January 5, 2010 at 8:30am View ConservativeGal's blog .I knew there had to be a “Paul Harvey” version to this story. See the white guy in the white suit? Now see the blond in the white dress? See the guy in the middle…hmmm-m-m. This picture was taken June 9, 2005. It seems Obama has known these two phonies for awhile, at least from the time he was a Senator. They’re getting all the press now as being “party crashers” and the secret service is taking the fall. Funny how this hasn't come out in the press, don'tcha think?

No wonder the couple who crashed Obama’s State dinner keep insisting they were invited guests. They know Barry from way back when he was still an Illinois Senator. Is Obama trying to throw the Secret Service under the bus?

Tareq and Michaele Salahi snapped the pic above with Obama at a “Rock The Vote” event on June 9, 2005 (also attended by John McCain…with whom the Salahi’s also took a pic). McCain won an award for his work on campaign finance reform. Obama won an award for “forming a multiracial coalition in winning his seat.”

Michaele Salahi is getting quite a ribbing in the press for lying about being a Redskins cheerleader, but Tareq is the more interesting of the two to me. He has ties to Palestinian terrorists. Tareq is a board member of the ATFP- American Task Force on Palestine , which has quickly scrubbed it’s site of the fact. Thank the Lord for Google cache.

And just who are the ATFP? The ATFP has ties to Chicago, ties to Muslim radicals, ties to Hamas, and ties to Saudi Wahhabists. It is arguably the American wing oF Hamas. The group’s co-founder is Rashid Khalidi, the guy purported to have helped finance Obama’s Harvard education and who was also instrumental in getting Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to speak at Columbia University. During the Beruit war, Khalidi was a PLO spokesperson. After the war, he came back to teach at the University of Chicago. He is a virulent critic of Israel, and [was] a strong supporter of Fatah terrorist Yassar Arafat. Obama has referred to Khalidi as someone who challenges his “own biases.”

Why do the same dubious tentacles seem to continually surround Obama?

The fact that the ATFP is scrubbing information on Salahi from their website suggests possible damage control coordination between the ATFP and the White House. If the ATFP was acting independently, there would be no reason to scrub Salahi’s name from their site.. It looks like Salahi was an invited guest to the dinner, that he was “outed,” and the administration had to come up with a rational excuse for his presence. Now the Salahis want to sell their story…they’re a little broke these days, but they still live VERY high on the hog.

The Secret Service has already apologized for the incident, but they may clear their names if the Salahis start singing... If someone with ties to the American wing of Hamas can get face to face with the President without the Secret Service realizing it…that is a major security lapse. However, if Obama’s people knowingly allowed Salahi in and are now throwing the Secret Service under the bus to cover themselves, that would be a major scandal. Some in Congress are calling for an investigation.

>>> "Does anyone recall the Live Thread about this particular State dinner? Maybe provide a link?" <<<<

I didn't follow any 'live' thread about the dinner, not that I remember, but I do recall that in the aftermath, freeper kristinn started several long informative messagethreads about the Salahis -- and it was on one of those threads where I first saw all the EARLY photos of Obama with this couple.

I read MANY threads last November about this. Here are 2 examples:

In light of that, and of Salahi's pro-Palestinian leanings, who is to say ... Tareq Salahi and wife, Michaele Salahi crashed the White House Dinner. .... This guy is on the Board of The American Task Force on Palestine. ...

I think hussein’s goal is to keep making the SS look bad so that he can replace them with his OWN security people. You know, the Nation of Islam bodyguards that protect Farackhan.

I don't believe they crashed the party at all. I have a feeling (can't prove it 'cause there are some who don't believe in a *woman's intuition*) it was a set up to show the Secret Service as incompetent.

After a few more *incidents* BO will introduce his Civilian Security Force and announce that they will take over. I remember him saying that they would be trained and outfitted as much as our military.

I pray that I am totally off base but I'm not going to deny how I feel.

Yes, indeedy. It was posted and discussed on FR back during the dinner but the msm air one word about them knowing each other? Nooooo.

I did notice last night there was a quick blurb on FOX whether Rogers (with the pic of her ugly dishwater rag outfit) should answer to it or not.

I also haven’t see much on msm about the incident shortly after the dinner when the Georgia couple who arrived for the WH tour got put in the wrong line and ended up attending a Veterans’ breakfast:

“the couple was able to get into the White House event without being on the guest list was called “dumb luck” by the Dardens. The White House is calling it a “nice gesture”.”

Sounds like yet another breach of security in a matter of days (that we know of) to me but then who asked me.

“I don’t believe they crashed the party at all.”

Will bet money on your assessment.

The ballerina et al are all over this, fabricate a breakdown in the intelligence and security agencies, experience an increase in the efforts of anti-American forces, cite the inability to use Armed Forces on the streets of America and present the CNSF as the single best way to preserve national security.

Purported email transcripts exchanged with Michele Jones, Special Assistant (watcher) to Secretary Gates, specify their names were on the guest list:
“We ended up going to the gate to check in at 6:30 p.m. to just check, in case it got approved, since we didn’t know, and our name was indeed on the list!

Wednesday, Nov. 25, 1:38 p.m. From Michele Jones to Tareq Salahi
Tareq:
“You are most welcome! I here (sic) the smile in your e-mail and am delighted that you and Michaele had a wonderful time. :-)”

It might have been like Clinton's "travelgate" - Obama wanted someone out... I'd like to know who that person was...

Yes, it has been posted a number of times. I’ve posted the two pictures [one at top and one at White House] side by side several times after it happened.

This photo has gone viral, at least on FReeRepublic many times since the dinner.

It does amaze me that the pundits act like they know nothing about this picture and/or the connection between Obama and the Salahis.

I know I, a mere mortal, had seen the photo and heard about the Palestinian connection about two days after the Salahis "gate crashed" the party. Funny how "journalists" can't seem to dig deep enough. It's too easy for them to be spoonfed the words they are to use in their "reports".

Truly amazing that these photos have been all over the internet and not one MSM reporter has asked the question “Obama was photographed with the Salahis during his campaign, why would it be strange that they be at the State Dinner”.
Perhaps the question has been asked and never reported- but why blame the Secret Service? Oh, its Obama, can’t take blame, transfer to someone else!
We are in so much trouble.

The MSM has sided with and protected Obama at every turn it seems. There are cracks starting in some of the media, witness Cafferty the other day on CNN.

Can’t think of the woman who is in charge of the guest list, etc, but her head should roll.

Obama clearly was very friendly with these people.
