A South Korean man who met with John Kerry's fund-raisers to discuss creating a new political group for Korean-Americans was an intelligence agent for his country, raising concerns among some U.S. officials that either he or his government may have tried to influence this fall's election.

South Korean officials and U.S. officials told The Associated Press that Chung Byung-Man, a consular officer in Los Angeles, actually worked for South Korea's National Intelligence Service.

The AP first reported this spring that Yi and other Kerry fund-raisers and donors had met with Chung, but at the time Chung was only identified as a diplomat. Yi resigned from the Kerry campaign after the story, and Kerry returned $4,000 in donations he had solicited because of concerns about their origins.

AP was alerted to the meetings and Chung's identity as an intelligence agent by Democratic donors and fund-raisers who said they were uncomfortable with the activities.

And the media continues to grind their ax against Kerry.

And that Moon has gifted NKorea with submarines?

And that Moon hosted Bush's inaugural breajfast?

That Moon now owns almost HALF this nation's fishing industry?

That Moon promotes Bush agenda in all of his news outlets?

That number one Moonie, Bill Gertz, is the set up man for the Bush military and intel agenda, spreading disinfo to further that agenda?

ORIGINAL CAPTION STORY FOR THE PHOTO ABOVE:


IT WAS ONE OF THE COOLEST MOments of his life. Abdullah Al-Arian was finally old enough to vote for president, and George W. Bush, on a campaign hop through Tampa, Fla., had singled him out in the crowd. Bush called the college student "Big Dude" and posed for pictures with his Arab-American family-an ethnic group politicians have long ignored. AlArian had registered Democratic, but he was so encouraged by Bush's outreach to the Arab community that he voted for him and took a job this summer as a congressional intern. But his optimism faded his first week in Washington, D.C. During a meeting with Muslim leaders on the president's faith-based initiative last month, Al-- Arian was ejected from a White House annex by a security guard, on an erroneous tip that the student had terrorist connections. "I thought with this election we were finally gaining ground" says Al-Arian, 20, a polisci major at Duke. "The next thing I know, I'm being profiled by the Secret Service." ---> More

11. Let's not forget Taiwangate

TAIWAN-GATE: Do We Have Bush-Appointed Foreign Agents
Influencing our Foreign Policy?

In an ever-widening scandal involving a Taiwan government secret "slush fund," the purpose of which was to covertly influence other countries' (including the United States and Japan) politics, leaked Taiwan government documents name two Bush appointees as receiving money from this "slush fund" for services including convincing Bush to agree to $4billion worth of sophisticated arms sales to Taiwan.

Carl Ford, appointed by GWBush to assistant secretary of defense for intelligence and research, and James Kelly, appointed by GWBush to assistant secretary of state for East Asia, are the American officials named as being "paid off" to covertly influence U.S. politics. Their efforts included accepting millions from this secret slush-fund, and it appears that this money may have been, at least in part, funneled by contributions made by Carl Ford (while working for a Washington PR firm, Cassidy and Associates) to the GWBush presidential campaign and the Republican National Committee.
