Four congressmen are asking for an investigation into the Council on American Islamic Relations after discovering an internal memo noting the group's strategy.
Four House Republicans on Wednesday accused the nation's largest Muslim advocacy group of trying to "infiltrate" Capitol Hill by placing interns in the offices of lawmakers who handle national security issues.
The four lawmakers, members of the anti-terror caucus, asked for an investigation into the Council on American Islamic Relations after discovering an internal memo noting the group's strategy. They also highlighted a new book by Paul Sperry titled "Muslim Mafia," scheduled for release on Thursday, which claims the group has been actively infiltrating Congress.
Reps. Sue Myrick of North Carolina, Trent Franks of Arizona, Paul Broun of Georgia and John Shadegg of Arizona asked the Internal Revenue Service to determine whether CAIR deserves its nonprofit status. They also are asking their colleagues to review a summary of findings that led the Justice Department to name CAIR as a co-conspirator in a terrorism case.

Remember Al-Qaida threatened that the U.S. would be destroyed from within.
Kind of sucks that they made it all the way to the presidency.
I think they're getting CAIR and AIPAC mixed up. Congress should investigate AIPAC before they investigate CAIR.
Give me a break. Pure bunk.
OMG!!! Anonymous 10:10 you are my hero of the day for being so well informed! God Bless ya!!!
CAIR? VS AIPAC?
For those of you who do not know, AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee) has been doing exactly what CAIR is trying to do for the last 4 decades! This is why we give billions in military weapons aid and billions in grants(taxpayer money that does not have to be re-paid) to Israel every year. Israel turns around and uses the money & weapons to kill Palestinians. Every wonder why they hate us? WAKE UP!!! They figured out where Israel gets the FREE bombs & FREE ammo that is killing them along time ago yet we can't even figure out why they hate us!
Even Fox News call AIPAC "a de facto agent of a foreign government & the most powerfull lobby affecting America's Congress & foreign policy!"
The people at CAIR are Idiots for not realizing how to play the lobby game sooner! There are only modeling their strategy after AIPAC's.
In my opinion, not only is this stategy wrong but it is reckless for congress to not take action! CAIR should be the last of our worrys if we were truely offended about this strategy! Work on people like AIPAC who have already "infiltraed" congress rather than the people who are still trying to figure it out!
Or are we just going after CAIR because they represent MUSLIMS?
As an American this makes my blood boil, of course congress is doing the right thing by calling for an investigation, I rather have the taxes I pay go toward this investigation for the next 50 years to kill every lobby in DC but I guarantee you one thing, they will NEVER touch AIPAC!!!
CAIR(Muslims) VS AIPAC(Jews)
Face it folks, We have the muslims by the balls and Israel has us by the balls!!!
I gonna go finish my breakfast now :)
Cair has known ties to terrorist so this would not shock me a bit.
What does it matter? We already have a muslim (and communist) as president.
If Muslims wanted to destroy the legislative process they can do it the way everybody else does:
hire lobbyists.
Yeah, an intern could spy. On the coffee machine and the office supplies store. Not to mention the tourist part of the Capitol building (you give lots and lots of tours as an intern). But official information? Jesus Christ, you idiots.
