The left is rushing to blame Bush for the Benghazi attack, now that the State Department is moving to name a former Gitmo detainee released by Bush as a key figure in the attack.
But Gitmo detainees were released as part of a pressure and lawfare campaign by the radical pro-terrorist left. Including Obama’s backers.
The left-wing organization that helped spring Qumu was the Center for Constitutional Rights. Last April, the group issued an indignant press release painting Qumu as a harmless victim and blasting those concerned about his unrepentant jihadi ways.
And who was running CCR at the time? An Obama backer.
Now the person that headed up the CCR when Qumu was released was none other than Michael Ratner, who not only endorsed Barack Obama in 2008, but also contributed $2,300 to his campaign as well.
Mr Ratner has aided several detainees at Guantanamo Bay, according to the Huffington Post and several have been freed.
Attorney General Eric Holder, who is also linked to CCR, has brought in a raft of terrorist lawyers into the Justice Department, including in the No. 3 position and described them as “patriots”.
In Benghazi, some of Obama and Holder’s patriots helped cause the deaths of four Americans.
LOS ANGELES, Sep. 11 -- Ironically, in an attempt to appeal to the growing number of Arab-American and Muslim voters, exactly eleven months ago George W. Bush called for weakening airport security procedures aimed at deterring hijackers.
On Oct. 11, 2000, during the second presidential debate, the Republican candidate attacked two anti-terrorist policies that had long irritated Arab citizens of the U.S.
At present [i.e., the evening of 9/11], of course, there is no definite evidence that Arabs or Muslims were involved in today's terrorist assaults. Many incorrectly assumed after the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing that Middle Easterners were involved. Nor is there direct evidence that Bush's attack on airline safety procedures made the four simultaneous hijackings easier to pull off.
Bush said during the nationally televised debate, "Arab-Americans are racially profiled in what's called secret evidence. People are stopped, and we got to do something about that." Then-Governor Bush went on, "My friend, Sen. Spence Abraham [the Arab-American Republic Senator from Michigan], is pushing a law to make sure that, you know, Arab-Americans are treated with respect. So racial profiling isn't just an issue at the local police forces. It's an issue throughout our society. And as we become a diverse society, we're going to have to deal with it more and more."
Bottom line here is that Bush’s Religion of Peace rhetoric isn’t a pose. The irony is that Muslims hate his guts.
Michael Ratner, Ellen’s brother.
I’ll be darned, I knew that name rang a bell. Wow, talk about evil spawn from hell!
Right.
“evil spawn from hell!” -— Well put.
Well, he did see to it that a whole bunch of them got their 72 virgins, so what are they so sore about?
Besides, the fact that they hate Bush's guts is no big deal, they hate everybody's guts.
Although I wouldn't be surprised if some of them have the hots for Obama and his crowd.

>> The left is rushing to blame Bush for the Benghazi attack
But the Left says Benghazi is an insignificant event?
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
BTTT
Oh, I see, W gave the Stand Down order, not Valerie Jarrett.
Gotcha
Well, the Left compared Benghazi to the array of relatively minor embassy incidents that occurred during Dubya’s reign arguing Benghazi was equally insignificant.
I was addressing the OP, not you, sorry, Sir.
The Bush Klan, Clintons and Obama are committed Isalmophiles. How any civilized Christians could possibly like these wife-beating, mutilating, murdering theocratic maniacs is beyond me. There is only one explanation - Muslim oil money. And we have a word for people who will do anything for money - prostitute.
Ratner is an avowed “marxist” according J. Michael Waller in an issue of the old Council for Inter-American Security “West Watch” newsletter in the late 1980’s.
He was the most hardcore marxist leader of the National Lawyers Guild, the CPUSA’s major “legal bulwark” in their fight against the US internal security system.
He was also a leader of the CCR, created by the CPUSA through NLG members including William Kunstler and Arthur Kinoy.
Documentation on the NLG and CCR appeared in the Congressional Records of the 1970s, put in there in the “Extension of Remarks” by the late Rep. Larry MacDonald (D-Ga).
Ratner is the Bill Ayers of the communist legal world - literally psychopathic in his marxist fanaticism. He also teaches at, or did, the John Jay College (Criminal Studies) and NYU.
He shows up in the book “The Real Secret War: Sandinista Political Warfare and its Effects on Congress”, by L. Francis Bouchey, J. Michael Waller and Steve Baldwin, Council for Inter-American Security, 1987.
He is reportedly the brother of the Ratner who was a key Obama bundler and fundraiser (real estate, New Jersey).
He is intelligent and extremely dangerous to America’s security.
A lot of the Ratners are related to Michael Ratner, some being hardcore reds themselves.
Go to www.keywiki.org (search under Michael Ratner), and www.DiscoverTheNetwork.org, search under his name and CCR.
You’ll find all the information you need but more will be added to these sites over time.
Well, the key thing to keep in mind about the Bush’s is that they are in thick with the House of Saud, with Prince Bandar virtually making their Middle East policy. Any loosening of restrictions against Arabs in general and Muslims in particular during Bush 43’s run is entirely at Bandar’s behest.
” And we have a word for people who will do anything for money - prostitute.”
” And we have a word for politicians who will do anything for money including aiding our enemies (and Islam IS our enemy) - “TRAITORS”.
