Ex-Lawmaker Charged in Terror Conspiracy

Mark Deli Siljander has a lot of splainin' to do:
"A former congressman and delegate to the United Nations was indicted Wednesday as part of a terrorist fundraising ring that allegedly sent more than $130,000 to an al-Qaida and Taliban supporter who has threatened U.S. and international troops in Afghanistan.

The former Republican congressman from Michigan, Mark Deli Siljander, was charged with money laundering, conspiracy and obstructing justice for allegedly lying about lobbying senators on behalf of an Islamic charity that authorities said was secretly sending funds to terrorists."
IF the indictment turns into conviction, Mark Siljander should be shot for treason.
He is the douchebag on the right:
