“If there is any sliver of respect for the American people left in President Obama’s administration, he will immediately fire Sara Hall Ingram.”

ALEXANDRIA, Va. – ForAmerica Chairman L. Brent Bozell III today released a statement regarding the promotion of IRS staffer Sara Hall Ingram, who led the IRS’ Tax Exempt/Government Entities Division during the agency’s targeting of conservative groups, to head the IRS “Affordable Care” Office.

“If there is any sliver of respect for the American people left in President Obama’s administration, he will immediately fire Sara Hall Ingram.  There is no place inside the IRS for such an ideologically driven individual, one of the key individuals in charge of handing out punishment to groups that did not support the President’s far left agenda.

“It is becoming more and more clear that the Obama Administration has politicized the IRS to unprecedented proportions.  Ms. Ingram even received over $100,000 in pay off for work on behalf of this effort. The President and Jack Lew clearly knew about Ms. Ingram and should have fired her immediately.  Now that she has been exposed publicly, there are no more excuses.

“Furthermore, Congress should not provide the funding for any additional hiring of IRS Obamacare agents.  The Obama Administration’s IRS is completely politicized and cannot be trusted to oversee the American people’s personal health records.

“Instead of providing funding, Congress should be holding hearings to investigate this unprecedented level of government corruption, and illegal abuse of government power.”

11 Years After 9/11 – What Went Wrong With American Policy

Last year ACT! For America put out a series of emails describing the purge of any references to radical Islam in federal government counterterrorism materials.

This didn’t happen by accident. It’s the result of a conscious and deliberate policy decision at the highest levels of the Obama administration.

Please view the short video below, put out by our friends at EMET.

We now know that Russian authorities wire tapped a phone call between Tamerlan Tsarnaev and his mother, in which they discussed “jihad.” This phone call was part of the reason the Russians alerted the FBI about Tsarnaev.

Had John Brennan, now our CIA director, listened in on this phone call, he almost certainly would have dismissed any concerns about Tsarnaev.

Why? Because Brennan has stated publicly he believes the notion that “jihad” is connected to terrorism is false. Brennan believes “jihad” is a “holy tenet” of Islam, because he claims it refers only to personal improvement.

Or what our friend Dr. Walid Phares calls “Islamic yoga.”

This administration refuses to acknowledge any jihadist ideology behind Islamic terrorism. The short video below is a must-see in this regard.

We can only speculate what might have happened when the FBI investigated Tamerlan Tsarnaev if our counterterrorism strategy included identifying jihadist ideology as a prime motivator of jihadist attacks.

But since the FBI can’t consider jihadist ideology when it does such investigations, it’s no wonder it dropped its investigation of Tamerlan Tsarnaev.
