(CNSNews.com) - The Obama administration says that it has talked with members of Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood in order to promote small business.
The Muslim Brotherhood, which was banned in Egypt during the regime of former President Hosni Mubarak, leads the Freedom and Justice Party which, according to the Congressional Research Service, won 235 of the 498 seats (47 percent) in Egypt’s new People’s Assembly, which convened in January. The fundamentalist Islamist Alliance won another 125 seats (or 25 percent of the assembly).
In an online briefing for foreign reporters last week, Undersecretary of State Robert Hormats said that the State Department is trying to promote collaboration between small and medium-sized businesses in the United States and businesses overseas.
In this context, he said he had talked to members of the Muslim Brotherhood about promoting smaller enterprises. He said he would be having similar discussions this week with leaders from Middle Eastern and North African countries.

“Promote small business” is Alinsky-speak for “Shake-down small business.”

In other news, the administration also approached Hamas to help promote eduction in the US and the Taliban to teach our children hygiene.
It doesn’t take a huge corporation to make suicide vests.
Beat me to it....why do I even try??? :O
Clitorectomies, decapitations, amputations... yeah there’s probably an untapped potential there. Find a need and fill it (or more like remove it).
Does he even listen to himself? I mean, this is beyond absurd. The man is insane.
I’ll bet my shirt that’s not all they talked about.
What are they going to manufacture, IED’s or suicide vests?
Great minds and all that rot.... lol
Very creepy, the State Department needs to be cleaned out, enough with their pro-Muslim agenda and spending
Talked with them about small businesses? Words which come to mind regarding this explanation: camouflage, misdirection, cover-up, bald face lie, playing the public for fools, trickery, arrogant deception, an obamanism.
Don’t feel bad, that happens to me too.
Obama is a surreal estate agent...
Laz my old friend one cannot listen to what one does not hear. This is from CNS. Now they’re fine folks, but really, how many readers do they have? A couple thousand maybe?
Even if Rush or Levin pick this up that is nothing compared to what NBCCBSCNNPMSNBC aren’t telling people. If we had a real media in this country Obama’s approval rating would be in negative territory and the Secret Service would be installing a mote around the White House.
So the plain, simple, and ugly truth is that we are WATF, buddy. There’s nothing to do but dig in and wait for what promises to be one hell of a storm to hit. God willing things will be better on the other side.
But there’s going to be some real nasty s*** raining down between now and then.
