I just read on another thread that C-SPAN is NOT covering these hearings in the House; not even filming them.

I just read on another thread that C-SPAN is NOT covering these hearings in the House; not even filming them.

I liked C-Span in the early 1990's, but they went bad during the Clinton corruption.

Just for the "H" of it, here are some links windchime had on another post:

OIL was -> Re: Why George Soros went wrong  by Daniel Watkins    21 August 2000 10:53 UTC

Excerpt from August 21, 2000:

i DO believe GS has been talking about this to their private client group and the partners, their denial notwithstanding. the big Q in my mind is this, fwiw: the oil companies do not want to become an issue, again, in the campaign if they can help it. i suspect they will do everything they can to keep prices at the pump tame until after early november and, of course, that will be just fine with the democrats who want to keep the failed energy policy of clinton/gore quiet until after the voting. so, the Q: will they be able to do it ? 

on one hand you have rubin's GS, who has a stake in a public "no problem" posture. on the other hand, they know better and are so informing their big customers.

GS = George Soros        rubin's GS = Robert Rubin - Citibank

I don't know if this is the same list but the journalist names that appeared in the list under unvestigation by the UN were mostly middle eastern guys working at al Jazeera. One guy was livng and working in Spain. There were no Americans journalists or Americans for that matter except for two middle eastern naturalized citizens.

""And if someone is found guilty they ought to hang," Armitage said."


Interesting words from the second in command at the State Department, now that the "evidence" is being uncovered from Iraq. Our own State Department knew very well what was going on with the UN "Oil for rotten Food" program and they did nothing.

I think this is going to be very interesting- apparently the guilty parties kept extensive evidence and documentation to assure their cut of the spoils, and such is now returning to plague them. To the tumbrels & guillotine, every man-jack of 'em!

Iraq oil-for-food kickbacks 'higher than suspected'
telegraph.co.uk ^ | 02/05/2004 | Philip Sherwell
"...far higher than the 10 per cent rake-off previously assumed to be the norm. "
So as far as the UN is concerned, skimming 10% is "the norm"? Consider how much 10% of the billions that pass through their hands would amount to.
