Huma Aberdin pictured with Hillary Clinton in 2011

Huma Abedin (b.1976) is the deputy chief of staff to US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in the Obama Administration. She is a longtime confidant to Clinton as an intern in the White House dating back to 1996. Aberdin worked for Clinton's campaign for president in 2008. She is married to former congressman Anthony Weiner.

In July 2012, as part of an inquiry by the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence led to charges of Islamophobia against Michele Bachmann. In a letter, Bachmann stated that Abedin's parents and brother were/are affiliated with the Muslim Brotherhood. As such, Bachmann wanted simple details on how Huma attained high-level security clearance. Aberdin's family connections would be a disqualifying factor in security clearance. Democrat representative Keith Ellison played the race card, avoiding the issue. Republican John McCain publicly lashed out at Bachmann. [1] House majority leader John Boehner did not even read the letter when he made a media statement against Bachmann. The lamestream media piled on to further their liberal vendetta against Bachmann.

Huma Abedin is a part of a pattern with the Obama Administration to work with organizations and people considered by many as having terrorist ties. Huma is not the only concern made know in the letter. Clinton's work on behalf of the Obama Administration to provide assistance to the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt is one factor. Representative Louie Gohmert of Texas, one of four co-signers to Bachmann's letter, grills Janet Napolitano for answers on the Muslim Brotherhood infiltration and Huma Aberdin's clearance. Napolitano denies it all, provides obfuscation and plays the Islamophobia card when questioned on Capitol Hill.
