The White House invited an ACLU attorney, who has built a career over the past six years of litigating against the United States in support of terrorists, to an official White House dinner last night to celebrate Ramadan with President Obama.
Jameel Jaffer, who runs the ACLU's "national security project," has filed lawsuits challenging the FBI's "national security letter" authority, the constitutionality of warrantless wiretaps, and has been a leader in pushing for the shut down of Guantánamo Bay, and providing legal rights to terrorists held by the United States overseas in such countries as Iraq and Afghanistan. His efforts enabled the leaking of "torture photos" out of Iraq and Afghanistan, and some sources inside the Central Intelligence Agency believe he was one of the lawyers who provided legal advice to the Department of Justice to pursue an investigation into enhanced interrogation techniques used by the CIA.
Jaffer, a Canadian citizen, was vetted for the dinner by White House staff. His invitation was approved by the White House Counsel's Office, as well as the Office of Political Affairs.
Jaffer also was a lead attorney attempting to have the 2004 visa ban lifted for Tariq Ramadan...
Intelligence agencies suspect that Mr. Ramadan (along with his brother Hani) coordinated a meeting at the Hôtel Penta in Geneva for Ayman al-Zawahiri, deputy head of Al-Qaeda, and Omar Abdel Rahman, the blind sheikh, now in a Minnesota prison...

Yeah and the people complaining about Obama being bad choice before the election were a bunch of fruit loops.....
Looks like the media described “fruit loops” were more right than ever.
I’d like to know if pork has been served at The White House since 0bama rode his camel into town.
How does a non-muslim “celebrate” Ramadan? A non-muslim doesn’t. More proof Obama is a muslim at heart.
Birds Of A Feather ...
Unfortunately, we know where the president’s heart is, and it’s not with Christians and Jews.
This POS is getting scarier everyday.
Can’t say it often enough: Elections Have Consequences.
That's what the Washington Post, the rest of the Liberal Media and the black power groups were hinding before the election.
Oh, but Obama has time to call cops stupid for doing their duty in questioning a homeowner during a suspected break-in.
The ought to be on the ABC, CBS, NBC, CNN, MSNBC news - but they are already conforming to the potential FCC dictates of zero’s Chavez loving czar.
Unfortunately, relatively few will see it at the American Spctator.
This pisses me off sooooo much...am sending it in email with a note....HOPE all you Obama voters are happy making your children and grandchildren INFIDELS....ELECTIONS have CONSEQUENCES.
Barack Obama charged the CEOs for the meals they were served. Did the PLO figure get a comped meal or did he have to pay TOO?
Why couldn’t the president just celebrate the Holiday Season? I mean, Ramadan AND Labor Day are right along side each other.
Sarah was right: Look who Obama likes to pal around with.
Is Jameel from an ethnic Muslim family, or is he from a Black Muslim group (I know he’s Canadian, but they have them in Canada, too)?
Unfortunately, relatively few will see it at the American Spctator.
Which is why we should be posting it everywhere we can.
