Guide to right-wing scammers and dirty tricksters (Reminder)
Edited on Fri Feb-11-05 04:33 PM by qanda
All this talk about Gannon, got me thinking about the links and ties Gannon/Guckert has to so many other rightwing players in the game to destroy America. I did some searching and came across an archived item posted by the DUer "starroute". This chart explains how the network is so interconnected that it's impossible to see where it starts or ends.

Hopefully, starroute will come along and update it soon-- it's definitely worthy of a second look.

Here's the link: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=132&topic_id=1154535#top

4. Thanks for responding
I think this chart shows all the connections in a way that words simply cannot.

I've asked for permission from the original poster to post the chart here and hopefully that will give it the attention it deserves.

7. Here's an update of that chart
I'm pleased you remembered it. :-)



There's been a little new information coming out since I did it, but not much. Maybe I'll do a third version soon and add the Gannon connections.

9. Thank you so much.
I've always wondered about something. Scaiffe cannot be the only source of funding for rw amerika. Who are the others? Me thinks this is just the tip of the proverbial iceberg.

10. "Remembered it"?!?....
I call it my VRWC chart, print it up and distribute it at the drop of a hat! It lays it all out there in the clearest possible form. (Truly a work of art!)

11. Holy crap! It really is a vast right wing conspiracy!
Hey--Regnery--isn't that Judith Regan's publishing company? If so, we can add Judith to the diagram. And her former lover, Bernard Kerik!

And in this same vein, let's not forget that Lucianne Goldberg was a republican mole in the McGovern campaign. And of course Lucianne is the proud mother of none other than pudgy chickenhawk Jonah Goldberg.

I see you have Fuckhead--I mean, Buckhead--of freerepublic. Real name Harry McDougald, real job, attorney (Atlanta, I think.)

Regarding the College Republicans, I wonder: in the 90's, Karl Rove led the effort in the state of Alabama, in which they packed the Alabama appeals courts with republicans. This was chronicled in an article in The Atlantic Online. The article was called "Karl Rove In A Corner". One of the techniques used by Rove, according to that article, was to start a whispering campaign, at the state university, that alleged that a democrat judicial candidate (Mark Kennedy) was a child molester. (Totally false allegation.) Wonder if the College Republicans were the campus people involved in that.
