As Patrick Poole notes, MPAC has deep ties to the Obama administration.
Via The Blaze:
Haris Tarin, the Director of the Muslim Public Affairs Council in Washington DC, cautioned about the potential “consequence” of what people say in public when asked whether the Sikh shooting on Sunday had any relation to Michelle Bachmann’s inquiry into the influence of the Muslim Brotherhood within the U.S. government.
Soon after the shooting, unsubstantiated comments began circulating on Twitter attempting to tie the bloody Sunday rampage at the Sikh temple in Oak Creek, Wisconsin, to those raising questions about the Muslim Brotherhood. It should be noted that Islam and Sikhism share little common ground when if comes to political philosophy or religious history.
