Obama's appreciation for the Muslim Brotherhood has been obvious right from the beginning of his presidency. When he spoke before the Egyptian parliament he insisted that a representative from the Muslim Brotherhood have VIP seating - even though, at the time, the Brotherhood was restricted from participating in official Egyptian business. He has actively pursued members of The Muslim Brotherhood to
serve in his administration in various capacities. He backed them during the so-called Arab Spring. And now, The Washington Beacon is now reporting that a top Muslim Brotherhood lobbyist is meeting with President Obama.
