GIBBS AND SESTAK RENDER WHITE HOUSE MEMO WORTHLESS

On May 28th, a memo signed by White House Counsel Robert Bauer was released to the press and it said that the position offered to Rep. Joe Sestak (D-PA) was not a paying one. It was one of several options discussed and included a position on a White House Advisory Board. After the release of the memo, Sestak spoke to the press and possibly volunteered too much information - again. When asked by one reporter what the position was, Sestak paused and then said - twice - that he believed it was on the Intelligence Board.

As Byron York discovered, which was reported HERE, that story didn't square with the memo. If, as the memo states, the White House wanted Sestak to remain a congressman, he would have been ineligible for a position on the Intelligence advisory Board.

Now, the Daily Caller is reporting that White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs is on record as saying the position offered to Sestak was NOT on the Intelligence Board. However, Gibbs would not say what position was offered:
The spot offered to Sestak, Gibbs said to reporters at the White House, “didn’t constitute a lot of what you’re hearing.”

But Gibbs refused to clarify what Sestak, who won the May 18 primary and is now the Democratic nominee for Senate, was offered.

Sestak indicated Friday he was offered a spot on the PIAB by former President Bill Clinton, who was acting on behalf of White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel.

“I heard presidential board and I think it was Intel,” Sestak said to reporters, describing his conversation with Clinton.
It would seem we're right back where we were before this memo came out. Sestak's story doesn't square with what the White House is saying.

Last time, it came down to either Sestak was lying or the White House committed a crime. Now we seem to be looking at a scenario in which either Sestak is lying or the White House is lying.

Stay Tuned.

GAZA FLOTILLA GROUP HAS TIES TO BILL AYERS

As video released by Israel continues to vindicate their claims that they were attacked by the thugs on the boats in the flotilla that was attempting to storm the Gaza blockade, we're learning more about the group in that flotilla. Writer Aaron Klein, who reports from Israel and is very close to what's going on there.

Now we learn that the group behind the Flotilla, Free Gaza Movement, has had the help of Bill Ayers, Bernadine Dohrn, and Code Pink's Jodie Evans.

Klein reports:
The flotilla was organized by the Free Gaza Movement, a coalition of leftist human rights activists and pro-Palestinian groups engaged in attempts to break a blockade imposed by Israel on the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip.

Ayers, Dohrn and Evans' Code Pink have led several recent Free Gaza Movement initiatives, including attempted marches into the Gaza Strip. Dorhn was in the Middle East just last month on behalf of the movement.
According to Klein, the trio also pushed for Egypt to allow protesters into Gaza several months ago from Egypt. They then relied on a letter from none other than John Kerry.
The three helped to stir riots after the Egyptian government refused to allow a large number of protesters to enter neighboring Gaza. Eventually, the protesters accepted an Egyptian offer of allowing about 100 marchers into Gaza. Once in the territory, those marchers were reportedly met on the Gaza side by Hamas' former Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh.

At the time of the march, Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., wrote a letter in support of a "humanitarian delegation from Massachusetts" to Gaza. Members of Ayers', Dohrn and Evans' group documented on their blogs how Kerry's letter was used at the U.S. Embassy in Cairo while attempting to pressure Egypt to let their group into Gaza.
It is becoming increasingly obvious that Obama's sympathies are with groups aligned against Israel.
