Analyst's note: Absolutely must read. This SEIU organization also has significant and on-going connections with Mr. Obama through one Andy Stern -- also under FBI investigation. Dig a little deeper people -- we will not be surprised to find connections with the Muslim Brotherhood.
One might think it would be big news that a Chief Steward (Joseph Iosbaker) for a Local chapter of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) is being investigated by the FBI for possible connection to overseas terror networks. Apparently, though, several Chicago news outlets didn’t see a reason to add this little fact to their stories. And even if it wasn’t big news that the FBI is investigating a union member, one would think that his profession would at least make an appearance somewhere in properly formulated coverage of the story… right?
[....] It is interesting to note that this fact escaped most of Chicago’s TV coverage. Michelle Gallardo of ABC 7 TV seems to have forgotten to mention the union connection, CBS channel 2 also missed this fact, WGN TV channel 9 also forgot to mention the SEIU, and Channel 5 NBC also missed it, all accidentally I’m sure.
But it isn’t just TV that missed this fact. The Associated Press also seems to be blind to the fact that Iosbaker is a union operative.
[....] UPDATE: Former SEIU President Andy Stern, and other Purple Army officials, are also under FBI investigation.
Another interest item is the first comment to this news item which reads as follows:
Whitewashed from you posting is the fact Joe Iosbaker is a clerical worker at the University of IL , which was just in the news for demeriting Bill Ayers. Joe is not just a clerical worker he has access to retirement pension accounts and is running to be elected trustee. We must wonder if any of these funds have been diverted to Islamic charities. .. http://joeforsurs.com/index.html
