Congressional Representative Keith Ellison (D-MN) addressed the 1st Annual Banquet & Fundraiser of the 'Council on American Islamic Relations' (CAIR) on the 16 June, at the Central Park Ballroom, Woodbury, MN this of course is happening just after CAIR was named as an 'Unindicted Co-Conspirator' in a Hamas Terrorism Financing Case, being prosecuted by the U.S. Atty in Texas next month of 5 Officials of the now defunct 'Holy Land Foundation for Relief & Development'.
On February 20, 2007 Keith Ellison endorsed Barak Obama for President saying, "...he speaks with a unifying spirit."
Congressman Ellison three weeks ago was the Key Note Speaker at the 4th Annual Convention (May 24, 2007) of the Minnesota Chapter of the 'Muslim American Society' which had on it's web-site material discussing waging war against non-muslims and the murdering of Jews. "Ethical Compromiser & Hamas Sympathizer Ellison" has had numerous suspensions of his drivers license for non-payment of fines and had refused to pay $18,000.00 to the IRS in 5 separate years between 1992-2000 and as a result had tax liens placed on his home.
Dennis Kucinich (D-OH), John Conyers (D-MI), Loretta Sanchez (D-CA) have all previously participated at CAIR events. Founded in 1994 CAIR is a spin-off of the Islamic Association of Palestine (IAP), according to former FBI Counter-Terrorism Chief Steve Pomerantz, "...IAP is a front group for Hamas.
In 1995 CAIR Advisory Board Member Siraj Wahhaj was named as an unidicted co-conspirator (by U.S. Atty Mary Jo White) who said, "...CAIR may had been involved in the planning to blow up NYC monuments including the WTC in 1993." Former FBI Counter Terrorism Chief Oliver Revell has called CAIR & IAP, "...a front organization for Hamas that engages in propaganda for Islamic militants."
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said as she took the reigns of the 110th Congress, "We pledge to make this the most honest, ethical and open Congress in history..."
William Jefferson (D-LA) has been indicted in U.S. District Court for Corruption after the FBI found over $90,000.00 in his freezer and two close associates of his have plead guilty in a corruption scheme involving an Internet Company in Nigeria. On January 30, 2005 Congressman Jefferson was video taped by the FBI receiving $100,000.00 in $100 Bills in a leather brief case at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Arlington, VA. Rep. Jefferson told Lori Mody (who was wearing a wire) "...that I must give Nigerian Vice President Atiku Abubakar $500,000.00 as a motivating factor..." to make sure that they obtain contracts for iGate and Mody Company in Nigeria.
Some Congressional Democrats have an alarming pattern of anti-semitism, bigotry, prejudice, corruption, questionable ethics and the support of terrorist groups like CAIR & Hamas, in Nancy Pelosi's, "...most honest and ethical...Congress in history..."
Where are the calls for ethical investigations and removal from the Congress of Democratic Members whose shenanigans undermine the public confidence and trust.
