The Rand Beers File

[Deathadder]

Hello to all that were kind enough to take the time to help out. I am writing a paper on Rand Beers, and to the point, after a few days of digging up all I can find on the former NSC agent, I found a good Beers, and a really nasty one. If anyone could find the time, please post what you think and/or know of Mr. Beers, and any information and/or links to add onto the big pile of intelligence I have discovered. I have told many of what I found, and they find it hard to believe. Funny what happens when you get a random assignment. Thank you for your time, and keep up the good fight!

1. You might want to google

Beers and NIGHTLINE. He was on shortly after he resigned, and had an intersting interview with Ted Koppel. I would venture to guess the transcript is online.

3. There's a file on Rand Beers over at INSIGHT

which is the publishing arm of the John Birch Society. It isn't too sweet.

It has info on some testimony he gave (to congress) where he later corrected some of it, and it appeared to alter a few of his answers. I'm not certain of ALL the details surrounding it, but it isn't uncommon for people to correct testimony or clarify it after reviewing their records when they are testifying without the benefit of records. JBS makes a big deal of it. I'm not sure that it is.

4. "John Birch Society" - I thought they were a relic of my childhood

Why would anyone take anything from them seriously?

7. Don't forget Charlotte Beers

It's always a "family thing" with these people.. That's one thing you have to give Clinton.. He did not load his administration with "family friends" or even family..

I think that nepotism in government has GOT to stop.. It's dangerous
