The Bush Crime Family's Counselary James Baker
The Associated Press reports that James Baker is now involved in a murder cover up. A large U.S. coal company, Drummond Coal, is being sued for hiring assassins to kill 4 union leaders at their huge mine in Columbia South America. James Baker's firm was hired to lobby the State Department to have the law suit dropped on the false premise that this law suit would hurt relations between Columbia and the U.S. Just another example of the total corruption of the Bush Crime Family.

First of, I am certainly not sticking up for Bush, that is not my intention here.
That being said, I can find nothing about any of this on the net. I know your fairly new to the site but usually we supply a link to back what we are saying. Please show a link to the AP source you are using.

Conservatism: Self-centered mean-spiritedness fueled by ignorance and misguided self-importance.

Bigotry is a social disease.

Legalized same-sex marriage almost certainly benefits those same-sex couples who choose to marry, as well as the children being raised in those homes. - David Blankenhorn is president of the New York-based Institute for American Values and the author of "The Future of Marriage."

Still no luck in finding this. Do you know how to copy and paste a link? I am not even saying this is untrue. I just would like some confirmation and read it for myself.

I am a compulsive fact checker and this caught my eye because Drummond is a major employer in my area. (North Alabama) They do not have a reputation for putting human life ahead of profits even here and are regularly in the news because of safety violations and/or tragic mine "accidents."

I found this from the Locust Fork (Alabama) Journal:

The Locust Fork Journal: Drummond Coal Archives

"Drummond lawyers from the firm of Starnes and Atchison in Birmingham and from Baker Botts in Washington, D.C., the firm of long-time Republican fixer James Baker, were back in U.S. Federal Court in November seeking to, in a sense, freeze-wrap in a super seal all documents in the civil murders case."

Thank you very much for posting this. A very interesting article that does confirm Billybob's claim. Thanks.
