Ken Valley says:: Gee CBS, why don't you just come out and say it, that the Obama-backed Muslim Brotherhood will rig this election and take over Egypt? Wanna talk about cronyism? How about the Obama Administration gave this terrorist organization $1.5 billion. Then, these terrorists turned around and contributed to Obama's campaign! If you don't call that Money Laundering, I'm not sure what else to call it! But, the liberal/biased media will keep this news a hush hush, so they can keep their viewers ignorant and under control! Americans need to wake up and seek the truth from other alternate media, away from the mainstream left-wing entities! America is being attacked from within, and our White House is contributing to the attacks!; reply
