Headline "Texas oil tycoon and political donor received dirty money from Saddam" Subheading "Underscores concerns over Bush's Oil Connections" No mention of Democrat Party in story,

You're good. It looks and reads just like something out of the propaganda mill.

Toni Mack, "Saddam’s pal Oscar." Forbes, available online at
http://www.forbes.com:80/forbes/123096/5815072a.htm (January 30, 1996).
This article in Forbes magazine reflects on the seedy side of Oscar
Wyatt and depicts him as an abrasive street fighter and a liability to
Coastal Corp. It traces Oscar Wyatt’s dealings with Libya and Iraq and
the most inopportune times. It goes further to suggest that Coastal
Corp. should split up into natural gas/electric power operations and
refinery operations to increase the companies net worth and perhaps
shake Wyatt out of the helm making it easier for Coastal to find
partners willing to work with them.


This article goes into more further detail concerning Oscar Wyatt’s
dealing with Saddam Hussein and traces other crooked happenings.

Petroleum Information Corporation (PIC), available online at
http://www.oil-data.com:80/pi/tin/010697/inews5.html (February 10,
1996).
This article concerns Coastal’s liquid natural gas import projects with
Pertamina, the Indonesia state oil and gas company.

The Houston Chronicle's article does indeed go into further detail. You'd think if they were going to expend that much effort to research Wyatt's involvement and history, they would have discovered his political leanings as well.

Not to worry, if John gets elected he can pardon the crook just like his buddy Clinton did four years ago.

How about this bombshell. I hear Kerry plans, if elected, to tax all eBay transactions. Figures to raise over 25 billion.

"Official spin"? More like the rantings of a lunatic who's long been off his meds.
