Thank you for the link mntnman.
Here is the headline of the lined article.
"The American Right achieved its political dominance in Washington over the past quarter century with the help of more than $3 billion spent by Korean cult leader Sun Myung Moon on a daily propaganda organ, the Washington Times, according to a 21-year veteran of the newspaper."
From the article:
"The apparent goal of downplaying Moon's subsidy has been to quiet concerns that Moon was funneling vast sums of illicit money into the United States to influence the American political process in ways favorable to right-wing leaders â;; and possibly criminal cartels â;; around the world.
Though best known as the founder of the Unification Church, Moon, now 86, has long worked with right-wing political forces linked to organized crime and international drug smuggling, including the Japanese yakuza gangs and South American cocaine traffickers."

  As the professional goal-post movers have tried to claim of late, `It`s the relationship`.
  Let`s see them explain the Republican Party`s over 30 year relationship with the Rev Moon!

    Unfortunately they won't try to explain it. They will just ignore it like they did Ron Paul. And the mass of the people won't ever know about it, unless we write articles to the local papers and raise it ovr and over again like we are here.

      That is exactly what needs to happen! We have a duty to our country to spread this knowledge "from sea to shining sea!"
      This is an opportunity to do our patriotic duty in a non-violent way. Our country's survival is at stake!
