Then again, the Times' decision to mention the existence the Oil for Food bribe list only an entire month after it was made public in Iraq is even more mysterious. Nah... they were just tuckered out by blaming US sanctions for killing 100,000 Iraqi children a year.

"Sachs' article breaks the Times' silence about how Saddam's regime used oil vouchers to bribe...goodwill ambassadors abroad""too briefly, Sachs mentions a list...of 267 companies and individuals who allegedly received...oil vouchers...politicians...Russian companies and officials...French Interior Minister--and--George Galloway, the antiwar British pol who was one of the Saddam's key mouthpieces
The Times article...neglects to mention Galloway or...the actual head of the U.N. Oil for Food program.
The "paper of record's" decision to keep silent...presumably had...to do with the paper's...support of the United Nations as an alternative to the Coalition...in Iraq."
And these people are worrying about whether Oprah paid Queer Eye to renovate somebody's apartment???
"The corruption and misuse of the Oil for Food program has long been an open secret"...
...and the complicity of the
New York Times and other news outlets in keeping this secret is part of the corruption.

The Times won't cover the oil vouchers story nor report on what others uncover! Neither will the neocommunists in broadcasting, the usual lefties ABCCBSNBCCNN, say any more about this story than is ABSOLUTELY necessary! Why? Because, it will lead to Willie and the filth and corruption of his White House sewer dwellers!!
My bet is that the mountains of Iraqi oil cash hidden in Switzerland were the direct motive for Foster's murder, Suzie's time in jail and several other inexplicable actions by the Arkies.
The continuing mystery today, however, is the fact that no one in our government seems to be screaming for an investigation! The dumb Republicans allow the crap weasels to demand an investigation of Senate memos, W's pre-9/11 briefings and then attack the findings when the results are what everyone knew at the start.
We must have a major investigation of who got the oil vouchers and where the cash is today.. I don't care whether the president of Indonesia is allowed to accept gifts or what he did with his cash, I want to know whether any Americans got vouchers, what they did in return and whether they paid the necessary taxes on their gifts. LET'S HEAR SOME SCREAMING FROM OUR SIDE!!!

This leads to such an obvious question;
What did the Clintons know and when did they know it?
To: sopwith
Fox & Friends Brian Kilmeade asked Kerry this question: Seeing as France, Germany and Russia were getting kickbacks in the U.N.'s Oil for Food program, did he (Kerry) now believe that they would have ever come around to support the war. Kerry's reply was "yes." Of course he didn't elaborate as to why he believed that or what he would have done to get their cooperation. I'd love one of the journalists to ask him this same question during an upcoming debate and make him go into detail on it.
