Kerry did nothing in the Senate except investigate BCCI...
and discovered that they had funded a little known oil company, Harken Energy, to the tune of $25 million dollars. What's the big deal? They were also the bank that funded Osma bin Laden and the roots of terrorism. The Bush family was connected with these operations for years. Many big name Democrats and Republicans were connected in this country but John Kerry investigated them anyway. He ran his boat smack dab into their illegal and fraudulent operations and one of the people doing business with them at that time was none other than George W Bush. Yes, that George W Bush.

1. Can Bush-Cheney ever be counted on to truly engage in the war
Edited on Sat Aug-21-04 11:27 AM by Old and In the Way
on terror? I think this proves the answer is no. They are compromised and who knows how this may be effecting our national security.

Could the Bush family be blackmailed, given their association with Saudi financial interests? Remember how Bush/Cheney dismantled the Clinton efforts to go after UBL? They took attack subs off station and pulled the recon drones out of the hunt to get UBL....one of their 1st actions after taking office. The word Al Qeda was mentioned publicly only once before 9/11 by this administration. Why? They were way too busy planning the Operation Iraqi Liberation (OIL). Who again attacked us on 9/11?

Another thread yesterday on the same topic:

3. BCCI is why we need Kerry. Not Kucinich, not Dean,
and certainly not Nader. Kerry. He's the only one with the guts to take on the Bush family in this thing, the first to start trying to defund terrorism (before the rest of the govenment knew it existed), and the first to expose the money laundering that was running all through corporate America and agencies in the US government. He also did an end run around Congress when they tried to shut him down and gave his info out where it would do the most good.

We need this guy.
