1. you forgot to mention his party affiliation
Mark Deli Siljander, a Michigan Republican when he was in the House, 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.

2. "Former R. Congressman...."
The "R" is the party. He was a Reagan appointee for something too.

4. He's not only soft on terrorism, but helping to fund it!
That would make for a good slogan: Republicans. Not only soft on terror, but helping to fund it as well!

6. Reagan appointed him to a one-year term in the UN. What made this man betray his country
