The first thing I found about the guy was apparently an inaccurate story he wrote, in glowing terms, about Cuba's leading the way to a digital Carribbean. 8-P

So Dr Ashby finds no contradiction between what he says Kerry did in 1988, and the heavy-handed involvement of George Soros (Godfather of drug legalization movement) in Kerry's election effort?

Talk about shady enterprises.

In June 2002, the firm opened a branch office in Boston. Hagens Berman’s Boston office is at the forefront of litigation challenging the prices of dozens of prescription drugs, claiming manufacturers artificially drove up drug prices through numerous anti-competitive practices.

He must think someone gives a crap. I'm sure Kerry has offered him some type of job with him when he becomes President (GOD HELP US!).

He is talking about the Iran Contra thing I believe. They are touting this on his web site. I doubt that this person was ever a Republican. He has changed his mind on Bush because of something that happened 20 years ago? Hmmmm.

John Kerry is definately a spinning crystal and if you are not careful you can get caught up in that hypnosis... but all words and little action is the reverse of good Leadership. Refer back to all three debates study them, study Kerry's record ... shocking ... There was blatant hypnosis in the debate last night about the AWB story... It went something like this. "I was hunting in Iowa last year with a sheriff from one of the counties there, and he pointed to a house in back of us, and said, "See the house over there? We just did a drug bust a week earlier, and the guy we arrested had an AK-47 lying on the bed right beside him." Well you see this is precisely a case that the AWB did not work but he uses the story to say that the bill should have been re-instituted. The AWB was signed in 1994 and expired in 2004. I am sure even Bill Clinton had his good days... The bottom line is the lessons of 911 are clear all talk and no action is how we got 911 in the first place.

Well, BCCI predates my interest in Politics, However, given the assertion about what was going on there, is it not at least Possible, that BCCI was a Hub for Dirty Money and intel(CIA) info ?

And IF so, what does that say about Kerry ?

If Kerry went after one drug cartel it was only because it was to wipe out the competition from another..

The commies arent involved in drug smuggling?.....ha!

They are in it big time....Danny Ortega..Kerry's buddy along with Fidel Castro the Russians and the Chinese...the muslims have long been into opium...where does all that product go?
to places where there is a market...

Kerry didnt touch the mob of any persuasion not the Chinese or the French or a dozen others
actively spreading their poison around the globe he says he is so fond of protecting...

IMO all Kerry did was secure more market for his bros

And Kerry is a BIG fan of the commies and has openly promoted their agenda

The anti war movement was not about saving our GIs lives to keep them from dying in an unjust war for a corrupt cause..

This was the commie mantra and it was designed by guys like 'the most trusted man in America'
Walter Cronkite and then taken up by lefties like Fonda and Kerry...to undermine Americas military...to get folks to question our govts motives, to destroy the morale of our young men in SE Asia...to to get the middle class and working class to turn on not only the Vietnam war...but ANY WAR...that America fought...

The commies and now the Islamo Facists have that same desire and Kerry and the MSM are all over this as is Hollywood...The anti war crowd is really the anti American crowd.

You wont see them going to our enemies camp and telling them to disarm...or to stop fighting
they know what would happen to them..

When Jane Fonda went to Hanoi did she go there to stop them from fighting?...Hardly she even climbed up on one of their AAA pieces for a little commie Kumbyah..she wasnt too 'anti war' now was she?

Kerry as the great protector of American children by going after drug smugglers...given his record as a communist agent (along with Jimmy Carter) just doesnt wash

IMO

Well somehow I thought I was posting and ended up submitting a complain to the newspaper. My statement remains the same. I will do a search and post if the Net search contradicts my knowledge. BCCI was started by the CIA to launder US funds in the covert war against the Soviets. Noreiga is / was in a Miami jail in US custody. Therefore venue was in Miami, and I never heard of Kerry there. Morgenthau, DA in Manhattan, NY conducted hearings on BCCI when it was out of hand. Seems this is more pulling "facts" from the air by Kerry.

As I recall, the lion's share of the work on BCCI was primarily done by a GOP DA in NY. Kerry was the head of some Senate committee, but his main contribution was to soften the role of Democrat kingmaker Clark Clifford, who was one of the people at the root of the scandal.

I recall that there was lots of money flowing around with BCCI. There were corrupt Democrats and Republicans. There was some connection to the S&L scandal.

If Kerry was willing to attempt to make four months in Vietnam the centerpoint of his campaign, given all of the landmines there, then one has to wonder why he hasn't brought up BCCI. My guess is there's a skeleton or two that might haunt him. Or, he did so little that it never occurred to him, though that hasn't stopped him before.

The following are excerpts with references. My review and personal knowledge, from trusted friends, does not indicate any KERRY active, positive involvement other than as a Politician grabbing the spotlight. He did so in his Senate capacity, he uncovered squat. He is mentioned as he was on the Foreign Relations Committee in the Senate. The dates of his alleged involvement are long after the initial BCCI investigation and Noriega’s arrest.

http://www.orlingrabbe.com/part10.htm
"Kamal Adham, who was the CIA's principal liason for the entire Middle East from the mid-1960's through 1979, was the lead frontman for BCCI in its takeover of First American, was an important nominee shareholder in BCCI, and remains one of the key players in the entire BCCI affair" (Senator John Kerry and Senator Hank Brown, The BCCI Affair: a Report to the Committee on Foreign Relations, United States Senate, December 1992).

This guy is nothing more than a political opportunist (like Kerry, huh?!) who is sucking up to Kerry in the hopes (God forbid) that Kerry will become president and he will be offered a job in his administration. A "doctor" (elitist professorial "know-it-all")from SEATTLE (said like the old advertisement for salsa - "NEW YORK CITY?!")? This guy is as much a REPUBLICAN as John McCain and Lincoln Chafee. What a JOKE. Problem is, since the election APPEARS to be close, many opportunist PUKES/MAGGOTS, thinking and hoping that Kerry might win, will be sucking up and jumping on board here at the last minute. They can call themselves anything they want - but they are nothing more than scumbag liberal demonRATS.
