John Kerry's campaign spokesperson said that,... John Kerry actually refused the donation before he decided to take it.

Who is Oscar Wyatt? More than just a oil man, he's an outspoken critic of both Gulf Wars, and a big time Democratic Party Donor...

He coined the slogan: No Blood for Oil.

"Socialism" is the nice way of putting it.

Oscar Wyatt is one of the most despised men in all of Texas. . . and that's by the people in the oil biz.

Funny that the two others implicated Samir Vincent and Shaker Al-Khafaji are also Democratic Party donors!

Oscar Wyatt is perhaps the greatest of all the wildcatters. Like Rockefeller, his genius was home grown and he created a true empire. He is mild by comparison to the bad guys of yesteryear in that business. He's an empire builder. He is as much a piece of Texas as is NASA and the Alamo. I have worked in this business for many a year and know people that know him personally. He commands respect that GW nor J F'n K could never. Think illuminatti.

I heard a quote from an oilman a few years ago that went something like this, "Son, you havent worked in the oilpatch until you've been fired at least once by Oscar Wyatt"

He is a democrat, but a fool he is not. I'm sure this story will disappear any day now, sadly. POOF!

Why has Marc Rich's name not poped up somewhere in this? Given his history of illicit oil deals and trading, How could he not possibly be involved?

<< Certainly you're joking...>>

No, I am not joking.

Both Republicans and Democrats accepted donations from OFF profits and we don't even know if the recipients knew the money was corrupt, though at least one (Jim McDermott, a Democrat) had the wherewithal to give his back (to Al-Khafaji.) I also haven't seen an official source that says Wyatt was giving kickbacks to Sadaam.
