State Dept. appointee tied to communists, terrorists
WND ^ | October 03, 2010 | Aaron Klein

A recent State Department appointee is wife to the founder of a radical organization whose leaders include a socialist party founder, communists and a leader of the 1960's anti-American Weatherman terrorist organization.

Barbara Shailor, appointed by the State Department as special representative for international labor affairs in May, also carries her own ties to some of the same radicals.

Prior to her appointment, Shailor was director of the international department of the AFL-CIO, the country's largest union, and served as senior advisor to the union's President John Sweeney on foreign and international policy issues. She is also a member of the Council on Foreign Relations.

Her husband, Bob Borosage, is a longtime progressive activist who co-founded the Apollo Alliance, a far-left group that has been instrumental in helping draft key policies of the Obama administration.

Apollo has been credited by the Obama administration with helping craft portions of the $787-billion "stimulus" bill signed into law.

They are not a positive political party; they are divisive and destructive. That is all they know how to do. That is how they govern using a kind of scorched earth policy.

What was once a great political party is now nothing more than a communist front organization.
