For The Big Business, Big Bank, And New World Order Establishment by Howard Phillips In his latest effort to consolidate his New World Order, Big Business Establishment credentials, President Bush has named the Chairman of Goldman Sachs to be his Treasury Secretary. While Paulson served as a Bush "pioneer" in the 2004 campaign, raising more than $100,000 for the President's reelection, his wife, Wendy, has contributed heavily to Democrats, including $11,000 to New York Senator Hillary Clinton and her Political Action Committee. Most of the $55,000 contributed by Mr. and Mrs. Paulson that went to Democrats came from Wendy Paulson. Steven Milloy, portfolio manager of the Free Enterprise Action Fund, says "Paulson is extremely weak on property rights. ...He has basically used corporate assets to pursue his personal interest. ...When the conservative base finds out what Paulson really stands for, they're going to be up in arms". According to the Free Enterprise Action Fund, in a shareholders resolution earlier this year, Paulson "looted shareholder assets when Goldman spent $35 million to buy land in Chile to donate to the Wildlife Conservation Society". Mr. Paulson, a fervent environmentalist who has been Chairman of the Nature Conservancy, has actively supported the Kyoto "global warming" Treaty, and backed Bill Bradley for President when the former New Jersey Senator was a candidate in the Y2K campaign. Paulson served, during the Nixon Administration, on the staff of RN's liberal Domestic Council chief, John Ehrlichman, at a time when Ehrlichman did all he could to thwart my efforts to close down the $3 billion "Great Society", through which Federal funds were provided to promote "welfare rights", abortion, homosexual activism, Indian reservation extra-territoriality, AZTLAN, and voting rights for illegal aliens, among other dangerous policies. Of particular concern is Paulson's close relationship with the leaders of Communist China. When Chicom Party Chief Hu Jintao visited the White House recently, Paulson and his wife, Wendy, were invited to participate in a private lunch with the Red Chinese boss. "Speaking of Beijing's top officials," The New York Times reports, "Mr. Paulson told an audience of the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania last year: 'The leaders are very bright, pragmatic, and aware of their problems. They have done a great job at economic reform. In my opinion, that's a better first step because until you have economic stability, political freedom isn't going to make any difference. But I think the Chinese will loosen up on human rights and allow more political freedom.' "Mr. Paulson's frequent trips to China have paid big dividends, helping Goldman snare some of the biggest investment banking deals of the last decade there and giving it the first direct access to Chinese investors of any Western financial institution."
