Congressional Democrats are tainted.
They can't investigate the UN on this issue - they have a spy for cryin' out loud!

Apparently, there are just some things you don't say in politics. Politicians know it. You don't call your opponent crooked or a liar (directly). There are a lot of reasons. A practical one is that it smacks of desperation.

Watch Kerry's negatives start to climb. By the end of this campaign, everyone in America will have a reason to loathe the guy.

Here are more facts about who benefited from Saddam's bribes in the "oil for food" scam.





The Saddam Oil Vouchers Affair
By: Dr. Nimrod Raphaeli
As Reported at www.Memri.org

http://www.worldthreats.com/middle_east/saddam_vouchers.htm
"On January 25, 2004, the Iraqi independent daily Al-Mada published a list of approximately 270 individuals and entities who were beneficiaries of Saddam Hussein's oil vouchers. [1] The report evoked reactions from many of those included in the list as well as from the Arab media, among them apologists for Saddam's regime. The fact that so many have opted for silence may give credence to the list's authenticity. "


It gives an incredible amount of detail with names and amounts -- it's very long, so I am not posting it, but suggest checking it out -- Saddam's tentacles reached around the world.


Here is just one example:

"France
1. ADDAX 8.3 million
2. Trafigura Patrick Maugein 25 million
3. Michel Grimard 17 million
4. Franco-Iraqi Friendship 15.1 million
5. Ayix 47.2 million
6. Charles Pasqua 12 million
7. Alias Al-Gharzali 14.6 million
8. IOTC (Claude Caspert) 4 million
9. Jean-Bernard Merimee 3 million
10. Jean-Bernard Merimee 8 million
11. de Souza 11 million "

I think a way to look at oil for food is a neo-colonialism, the UN's colonialism of Iraq, extracting wealth with the convenient help of a localo factotum.

Effectively that is true.

As an aside, Kofi is also the guy who presided over the Rwanda debacle before he became Secretary General.

Ex-Congressional Aide (DEMOCRAT) Charged With Spying (worked for Carol Mosely Braun). Oh, and that's spying for the Saddam regime, if you don't have time to click over.

Thanks a lot Bob Dole for imposing Koffi Annan on the world (Dole waged a campaign against Boutro-Ghalli a Coptic Christtian in favor of Muslim Nigerian Annan).

PING you to post 163 -- re. France.

It would be interesting if someone investigated the connection of the named entities and individuals to Chirac.

I bet we would find plenty of links.

It is time for the Leaders of the Senate and the House to Immediately start TELEVISED HEARINGS on the matter.


Either force the testimoy of Kofie and Company under threat of Perjury or loose US Funding and move the UN HQ Out of NYC. Bye Bye Coffee Cakes.

Then someone stick a Mic in from of John F#@#$#$# Kerry and ask him if he REALLY wants to put American Military under that kind of corrupt Command.

Clinton and Annon have always been close buddy's - which means that the buddy will eventually be sacrificed on the Clinton altar. (Wonder if another FOB, Mandela will be added to the list?)


I agree with you it's Billy Clinton to the UN and the Queen anointed at the Convention. She does have to save her party, does she not?

Thank God we have President Bush in office, can you imagine what would have happened if Gore(the clinton stooge)would have been in office? This should put the U.N. an organization that makes the mafia look like boy scouts, out of business. France should be villified, more so then they are, they are in this up to their eyeballs.!!!

I don't know...."Bush lied" has been the democrat mantra for months now, and Ted Kennedy has said much worse things. The AWOL stuff, which is a felony, was worse than this, IMHO.

Good picture -- I think I'll save it and use it, when it's appropriate.

Here's the thing.
If Kofi is guilty, he'll Ron Brown it and out everyone. He'll take the whole damn Security Counsel down with him. He isn't a very nice guy.

But here's my question - we currently have a 9/11 panel playing politics and trying to "get to the bottom" of intelligence. I want these folks to now "get to the bottom" of why our Congress, as well as our intelligence didn't know this RICO (and this is organized crime) was going on.

THIS is what I demand to know.

In addtion, what did Kerry know, and when did he know it? Is he really clueless on the activities of the UN while wanting our entire country to submit to it?

We know what Mr. Bush knew - he and Mr. Blair were smart enough to spy on them.

These are valid questions.

I'm expecting to see Hans Blix's name thrown into this pile before it's over.

One can only hope!

I'd do a big ol' Irish jig for that one!!!

He will be pushed and tested daily and the mic will be on from this "slip" forward. He isn't gonna like how this gets played out.

His sharpe tongue is gonna bite him in the ass so to speak.
