President Obama's new Muslim envoy Rashad Hussain admitted Friday to once defending a man who later pleaded guilty to conspiring to aid a terrorist group -- an admission that contradicts earlier claims from the White House that the quotes had been mistakenly attributed to Hussain.

These people are so not trying for a 2nd term.
Another attorney and friend of Obama’s caught in a lie.
Every one of these issues needs to be catalogued by Republicans and replayed over and over and over again both in the 2010 midterms and in 2012.
How Clintonian of them.
‘Every one of these issues needs to be catalogued by Republicans and replayed over and over and over again both in the 2010 midterms and in 2012 ‘
I agree
“Every one of these issues needs to be catalogued by Republicans and replayed over and over and over again both in the 2010 midterms and in 2012.”
Nice thought, but I remain unconvinced that the GOP could FIGHT their way out of a wet paper sack with a big hole in it, LOL!
Impeach Barack Obama
...material like this in the hands of someone like Lee Arwater would be gold....sad that today’s GOP won’t have the guts to use it.
typical chicago politician. all the appointees end up in jail. The second term lately for any Illinois politician is generally a prison sentence
Now there is a true patriot who deserves a monument. Lee Atwater, if only we could clone him and create an army of patriots.
...an admission that contradicts earlier claims from the White House that the quotes had been mistakenly attributed to Hussain.I'm sure the New York Slimes and the other party organs around the country will paste up op-eds condemning the racism that caused this treasonous POS to lie about this in the first place. Thanks nuconvert.
It's both. However, in every 0kaka appointment, the latter explains the in-your-face actions of the Child-in-Chief.
What would anyone expect from a communist community organizer from a dysfunctional family? 0b0z0 behaves as expected from one who's uneducated with a huge chip on the shoulder and an incompetent that accomplished nothing in his life. This will be proven right when his school records or lack thereof becomes public.
0kaka's immaturity is showing the thin-skinned child who will not accept any loss against the American people’s wishes. He doesn't know that it's a fight he'll certainly lose.
The boys of South Park could do a better job than Barry and his hand picked idiots.
no guts,..or nuts.
here is a guy that defended someone that promotes jihad, and he gets nominated for a islamic outreach group approved by the president.
this administration is absolutely clueless. Israelis should be in a uproar.
Obama’s new Muslim envoy Rashad Hussain’s and actions is another example of my 2009 and 2010 tagline.
