Drudge Retort: Red Meat for Yellow Dogs
Wednesday, July 02, 2008

Carl H. Lindner Jr. recently hosted a $25,000 a plate dinner for McCain and the RNC in Cincinnati, raising $2 million for the fall campaign. That's only a little more than he paid to the United Self-Defense Forces of Colombia while CEO of Chiquita Banana -- a terrorist group described as an "illegal right-wing anti-guerrilla group tied to many of the country's most notorious civilian massacres."

Why does McCain love bananas so much?

ask his chimp boss

When you said terrorists, I thought you meant actual ones, as in Arab Muslims...

Who gives a fuck about Columbia... if they try coming here, we'll get Joe Horn to deal with them.

Farc are real terrorists.

/can he throw him under the banana bus?

Well at least the guy didn't take sides, he paid whoever seemed to be winning at the time. Must be a lot of profit in bananas.

Doesn't he know FARC hearts BHO?

www.ibdeditorials.com

In a Feb. 28 letter, FARC chieftain Raul Reyes cheerily reported to his inner circle that he met "two gringos" who assured him "the new president of their country will be Obama and that they are interested in your compatriots. Obama will not support 'Plan Colombia' nor will he sign the TLC (Free Trade Agreement)."

Aside from some interesting possibilities about who these "gringos" are a congressional delegation did visit Ecuador and an international leftist "congress" was held in Quito around this time the real question is why anyone secretly consorting with FARC would be able to speak for presidential candidate Obama.

John was in Colombia telling them he loves them and promises a free trade deal that lets therm shoot workers who annoy them.

God I'm sick of Liberal crap. And on to another article on this thing. Regarding currency for the blind. I am totally blind myself. I use something called a screenreader to read what is on screen to me. So to those people who think the blind can't do anything, go screw yourselves. I'm sick of your shit. Blind people are just like everybody else, but we need just a little accomidations. But that's liberals for you. Blind people are just as American as anyone else. I am proud to say that I'm a member of an Air National Guard Auxiliary squadron and live a normal life, thank you.

"When you said terrorists, I thought you meant actual ones, as in Arab Muslim"

Rob, does this mean we will never see you mention Ayers again?

If it makes you feel any better, I'm sick of people like you. You dismiss funding of terrorists as liberal crap? Have something intelligent to say or don't say anything.

Rob - Joe Horn, how is an NFL receiver going to help?

The two suspected burglars, Hernando Riascos Torres, 38, and Diego Ortiz, 30, were unemployed illegal immigrants from Colombia.

anyone ever notice here that a lot of the McCain threads are deflections of something Obama did?

I don't know who Ayers really is or what he did... I've heard he did some terrorist type things a while back and that he and Obama are friends... if that's true, it hardly equates to one man at a dinner making a donation. Every campaign season candidates end up giving money back, but not every campaign season is a candidate friends with an actual terrorist... if he really is... like I said, I didn't pay much attention to the Ayers story.

Man...have you ever picked the wrong site !

"anyone ever notice here that a lot of the McCain threads are deflections of something Obama did?"


How true.

You mean like fucking black chicks?

Sorry, that is so 1999.

How true.


Posted by kerrin57

There was the whole Hagee thing, then if I remember right there was something about McCain's wife, now as Hotsauce points out this thread can be used to deflect away from Ayers...

MP...I though "fucking " FAT "chicks?"
was "just sex".
I am surprised y'all aren't forming a line to vote for Mac.

Rob -- yeah that Joe Horn would kick some butt. I do think it a bit hypocritical of McCain though.

I'm guessing he had no idea of the guys past dealings... I would bet good money at some point a story will break that an Obama fundraiser has a shady past as well...

Rob - I would agree with you 100% They all have skeletons in the closet.

Did McCain return the 2 Million yet?

What does that tell the US Voters about his character that we don't already know?

I wonder what favor he know owes Mr Lindner.

Don't you?

I am totally blind myself.

And stupid too.

I think you might find that may of the programs and assistance for the blind have come from the 'liberal' side of the aisle.

Rube,

Yes, Obama was 8 years old when Ayers did what he did, but keep hating him for something you yourself admit to knowing NOTHING about.

I understand though, It's not like you have ANY WAY of looking up any info on him. If only someday there was a way to look up info on that thing they call the "information superhighway"........someday.

anyone here smell something funny?

Like someone is full of shit?

Wobbie the Pooper Scooper tries to scoop some poop on something he supposedly "didn't pay much attention" to...

yet says "it hardly equates to one man at a dinner making a donation..." like this is what the story was about!

The story was about and I repeat for the more slow among us...The co-host of a recent top-dollar fundraiser for Sen. John McCain oversaw the payment of roughly $1.7 million to a Colombian paramilitary group that is today designated a terrorist organization by the United States.

and

Following a Justice Department indictment last year, Chiquita admitted to illegally funding the paramilitaries and agreed to pay a $25 million fine. Chiquita's payments to the AUC began in 1997 and lasted seven years; roughly half of the funds came after the group was designated a Foreign Terrorist Organization by the U.S. State Department in 2001.

and

Chiquita's funding of violent paramilitaries does not end with the right-wing AUC. The fruit giant "had been making similar payments to the leftist FARC and ELN guerrillas" since 1989, also on Lindner's watch. Those payments ended in 1997 as "control of the company's banana-growing area shifted" to the AUC, according to the Associated Press.

and

Moreover, McCain's chief political adviser, Charlie Black, lobbied for Chiquita on two separate occasions in 2001. According to records, Black was paid $80,000 to work on foreign trade issues.

NOW... consider if Obama had such ties to a TERRORIST ORGANIZATION and how loudly you'd be screaming for his head...

Bush's buddies the saudi royals bankroll terrorists and McSame's buddies bankroll terrorists.

Surprise?

I think you might find that may of the programs and assistance for the blind have come from the 'liberal' side of the aisle.

Yeah, that's why I don't use them.

Do you use text-to-speech software or someone read web pages for you?

What about liberals don't you like?

I'm fascinated that you harbor such hatred for people who fight for your rights to fair employment, access to buildings, new technologies and software. I'm a little hurt by your sentiment, but respect your abilities. Without my glasses I wouldn't be able to function - being blind would be such a frightening world for me.

What do you think of the waterboarding issue? Is it torture or not? Should American military utilize waterboarding? Sight deprivation scares me, but air deprivation is an immediate threat to life. What are your thoughts?

word just out

obama gets sweetheart mortgage deal....

more news later about this great messiah who can do no wrong.....

of course, of course. McCain is a terrorist supporter, child molestor supporter, tax evader, faked his military record, is a traitor, a wife abuser and an ex KKK member.

Yeah that's going to work, real well. Keep that up, you stupid fucking democrats.

Are you scripting National Treasure III? What an amazing post!

I'll help - you do realize he's a member of the Trilateral Commission. Why don't you include Area 51?

Does Kuma mean "Utterly Dickless" in Olmec?
