Oh bummer! Under the reformed government health care program the demand for morphine should even increase as the government health care medical advisers advise more elderly be given less costly pain killers than higher cost surgery or devices. Maybe there is some motive bamah doesn't want to pull the troops out of Afghanistan. If we are in Iraq for their oil than maybe we are in Afghanistan fot their poppies.

Interview: Man Who Went Undercover As Muslim Intern Speaks To TPM
Justin Elliott
October 16, 2009

Your mission, should you choose to accept it: Change your name. Grow a beard and learn the ways of Islam. Present yourself at the Council on American Islamic Relations. Acquire an internship. Wear a wire. Take whatever isn't bolted down.

That's the mission Chris Gaubatz accepted last year. And Gaubatz, who sells insurance for a living, told TPMmuckraker in an email interview that he never once felt guilty during the six months as a Muslim intern spy and that, well, some of the CAIR folks were pretty darn nice, despite any terrorist sympathies.

His father co-authored the new book Muslim Mafia based on the allegedly incriminating documents Chris took. Citing the documents, four House Republicans have charged that CAIR dispatched Muslim intern spies to key national security committees, calling for authorities to investigate.

"They were nice people and I got along with them very well which is why I was able to retrieve the information I did," Gaubatz says. "But just because somebody is outwardly friendly doesn't mean they can't be doing something wrong or even harming National Security."

Gaubatz, whose father coordinated the project, says he's unbowed by CAIR's charge that he stole documents.

And asked about his father's statement that Barack Obama is Muslim, Gaubatz responded, "Obama's religious affiliation has nothing to do with my reasoning for gathering information on the organization."
