Interestingly enough, I'd just read this Arianna Huffington article. It has some interesting stuff about Pearle, even though I imagine many here won't like some of the other slants she has on things:

Quote:

Having your soufflé and eating it too
Richard Perle leads pack of public officials cashing in while still in office
For years now, political reformers have been railing against the unseemly -- and rampant -- practice of former government officials pouring through Washington's golden revolving door only to return a short time later as well-paid lobbyists, auctioning off their access and influence.

Well, compared to the latest trend, turns out those were the good old days. Today's new breed of public servants prefers to cash in while still stalking the halls of power and deeply involved in the highest levels of creating public policy.

Talk about eating your cake and having it too.

On second thought, better make that "eating your soufflé," because Richard Perle -- a close advisor to Don Rumsfeld whose side obsession has been to open a chain of soufflé restaurants -- has taken this double-dipping scam to a whole new level.

As chairman of the Pentagon's influential Defense Policy Board -- a position that is unpaid but still subject to government ethics rules -- Perle has been the frothing pit bull of the Bush administration's dogs of war. At the same time, he is the managing partner of Trireme Partners, a firm that specializes in homeland security and defense, and serves on the Board of Directors of Autonomy, a software company whose clients include the Defense and Homeland Security Departments.

Perle's latest deal finds him on the payroll of Global Crossing. The bankrupt telecommunications company is struggling to win government approval for its proposed sale to Asian investors. The Defense Department and the FBI are both opposed to the $250 million deal since it would place Global's fiber optic network -- which is used by the U.S. government -- under the control of Hutchison Whampoa, a Hong Kong firm with close ties to those freedom loving folks in Beijing.

Enter Richard Perle. Global is hoping he can convince his good buddies in the Defense Department to put their national security concerns aside and let the dicey deal go through. And Perle is clearly confident that he can deliver: In a highly unusual arrangement for a Washington gun-for-hire, he's agreed to make $600,000 of his $725,000 fee contingent on his bringing home the bacon.

I guess he figures: Hey, I convinced the president to toss aside 200 years of historical precedent and launch a preemptive war despite the trepidation of the majority of the world, how hard can it be to persuade a few government bureaucrats -- including my old pal Rummy -- to look the other way while I do an end-run around the public interest and bank a quick 725 grand? After all, you know what they say about casting Perles before swine.

This sleazy state of affairs has caught the eye -- and turned the stomach -- of Rep. John Conyers, the ranking Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, who has called on the Defense Department to investigate whether Perle's business dealings constitute a conflict of interest.

During his years in the Reagan administration, Perle was dubbed the Prince of Darkness because of his hard-line stance on national security issues. But I suppose when you toss nearly three-quarters of a million dollars into the mix, the gloomy Prince is more than happy to click on his halogen nightlight and refashion his hard-line into a squiggle.

Adding insult to injury is the fact that Perle's windfall is coming from the coffers of a disgraced company that was among the worst of the corporate crooks. He's lining his pockets at the expense of the 10,000 laid-off Global employees who saw $32 million in severance pay wiped out -- and the shareholders who lost $57 billion in equity -- when the company declared bankruptcy.

The hubris is unfathomable. In legal documents drafted in connection with the proposed Global sale, Perle couldn't have been clearer about what the telecom company would be buying with its fat fee. "As chairman of the Defense Policy Board," declared Perle in an affidavit, "I have a unique perspective on and intimate knowledge of the national defense and security issues" likely to be raised by the governmental review of the sale. Knowledge, he pointedly pointed out, "that is not and could not be available" to the other lobbyists trying to get the deal approved.

In other words: "I've got Rumsfeld's ear and access to all sorts of super-top secret information that none of these other jokers on your payroll do. I know more. I can do more. So I'm worth more." And he had the unmitigated chutzpah to put this all in writing. And sign it. I guess this is what the Bush administration means by "transparency." And, to Perle's credit, the whole thing is pretty transparent.

But, of course, when reporters began sniffing around the deal, Perle's power plumage shriveled up faster than George in the "shrinkage" episode of Seinfeld.

First he tried the classic Bush administration Plan A -- the simple, 180 degree lie. He just told reporters that he never signed the statement. That didn't work, so onto Plan B -- claiming ignorance, admitting that he had signed it but insisting he hadn't read it. Finally, no doubt realizing this all sounded a bit too much like "the dog ate my affidavit," Perle declared that none of it mattered anyway, since his position on the DPB actually, now that you mention it, had "nothing to do" with the Global deal -- so how could he possibly be using his public office for private gain?

So when there's money to be had, Perle's position at the Defense Policy Board affords him "a unique perspective" on advising Global Crossing, but when ethical questions are raised, his Defense Policy Board post has "nothing to do" with his work for the telecom company.

And this is the guy our president is putting his trust in when it comes to waging war on Iraq?

Perle's abuse of the public interest is in a class by itself, but he is far from the only one in Washington shaping public policy from the inside while skirting the ethics rules designed to keep people from cashing in on their positions of power.

Among the most prominent of the double-dippers are Karen Hughes, who continues to serve as one of the president's most trusted advisers while pulling in $15,000 a month as a "consultant" to the Republican National Committee; RNC Chairman Marc Racicot, a double-dip pioneer, who famously decided to forgo tradition after being elected party chairman in 2002 and hang on to his day job as a high-powered corporate lobbyist for companies such as Enron; and Haley Barbour, the former head of the RNC, who has unabashedly decided to continue working as a lobbyist for clients such as Citigroup, DaimlerChrysler, Lockheed Martin, and Nestle at the same time he is running for Governor of Mississippi.

It seems that after failing in their attempts to privatize social security, Republicans have decided to privatize public service.

Perle became embroiled in a recent controversy stemming from a New Yorker magazine article that said he had lunch in January with controversial Saudi-born businessman Adnan Khashoggi and a Saudi industrialist.

The industrialist, Harb Saleh Zuhair, was interested in investing in a venture capital firm, Trireme Partners, of which Perle is a managing partner. Nothing ever came of the lunch in Marseilles; no investment was made. But the New Yorker story, written by Seymour M. Hersh, suggested that Perle, a longtime critic of the Saudi regime, was inappropriately mixing business and politics.

Perle called the report preposterous and ''monstrous.''

Perle, 61, was so strongly opposed to nuclear arms control agreements with the former Soviet Union during his days in the Reagan administration that he became known as ''the Prince of Darkness.''

Quote:

March 27, 2003 *|* WASHINGTON (AP) -- Richard Perle, a former Reagan administration Pentagon official, resigned Thursday as chairman of the Defense Policy Board that is a key advisory arm for Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld.

In a brief written statement, Rumsfeld thanked Perle for his service and made no mention of why Perle resigned. He said he had asked Perle to remain as a member of the board.


"He has been an excellent chairman and has led the Defense Policy Board during an important time in our history," Rumsfeld said. "I should add that I have known Richard Perle for many years and know him to be a man of integrity and honor."

Perle was an assistant secretary of defense during the Reagan administration. He took the advisory board chairman's post early in Rumsfeld's tenure.

Which is the exact reason he was asked to resign. The administration doesn't want to deal with his baggage anymore.

WilliamTheIrish 03-27-2003 06:09 PM

.......... Perle has been the subject of much criticism. Most of it well deserved.
It's nice of Miss A. to point out Perle's cashing in on Global Crossing. Didn't MacAuliffe (DNC Chairman make incredible money off Global Crossing also?) Don't think he resigned. Then again he's not in the same position as Perle.
Anyway I would appreciate more articles like this that point out people who move from public service to public dole.
It's like having insider trading info. It's also BS

just curious, do you think this means that Rummy and Dick(less) didn't know anything about the actions he had taken? Isn't that a bit silly? That's akin, to me, to Reagan claiming he could not recall....

As to head out of the sand, get real all the best people in government at this level go back and forth whether they are liberal or conservative are you so blind you have missed that. It has only been going on since at least the days of FDR. Course liberals make a habit of being outraged by the ordinary and common and have no problem with terror sponsored by people like Saddam as long as they can hug their trees, beat their chest about PC violations and cower in the corner if War is suggested.

I suggest you pull your head out of your Azz and try the sand it will provide you a better life.

The St. Petersburg Times published this editorial yesterday:

http://www.sptimes.com/2003/03/26/Op...generals.shtml

A Times Editorial


Ignoring the generals
Civilian ideologues in the Bush administration made optimistic assumptions about the war in Iraq that may have endangered our troops on the ground.

© St. Petersburg Times
published March 26, 2003


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Richard Perle is the guru of the civilian ideologues who are the architects of the Bush administration's Iraqi war plans. In the months leading up to war, Perle and his allies in the administration pressed for military action by painting a vividly optimistic scenario. Vice President Dick Cheney, a longtime associate of Perle, said American soldiers would be "greeted as liberators" by the people of Iraq. And Perle said most of Saddam Hussein's troops would surrender rather than fight, while Iraqi opponents of Hussein would lead an armed uprising to topple his regime with little or no help from U.S. forces.

Perle, who serves as chairman of the Pentagon's advisory Defense Policy Board, envisioned before the war that U.S. forces would make "a much more modest effort" than in the 1991 Gulf War, needed only to "assist Iraqis in freeing their country." At times, Perle predicted that no U.S. ground forces would be required. At most, he said, only about 40,000 U.S. ground troops would be needed.

Our political and military leaders say the early days of the ground war are going according to plan, but events clearly are not playing out as Perle and his civilian proteges predicted. U.S. forces have met stiff resistance in their advance toward Baghdad, and the civilian reaction to our troops' presence has been mixed at best. Meanwhile, the anticipated anti-Saddam insurgency within Iraq has not yet materialized on a significant scale.

As a result, our ground forces have been left more vulnerable than necessary. Several of the military commanders of the first Gulf War say the current U.S. invasion force of a single heavy division is too small. "In my judgment," said retired Gen. Barry McCaffrey, who commanded the 24th Mechanized Infantry Division during the 1991 war, "there should have been a minimum of two heavy divisions and an armored cavalry regiment on the ground."

Other veteran Gulf War commanders agree with McCaffrey, and their views are not mere second-guessing. Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf, who commanded U.S. forces in the 1991 war, said months ago that he was "somewhat nervous at some of the pronouncements (Defense Secretary Donald) Rumsfeld has made." Schwarzkopf said he feared that Rumsfeld and his civilian advisers had "disregard(ed) the Army" in establishing their quick-strike plans.

A cornerstone of American democracy is our tradition of civilian control over our armed forces. President Bush and other members of his administration, with the advice and consent of congressional leaders, are ultimately responsible for determining when and how our military forces will be deployed. That is as it should be.

However, the lives of American soldiers are put at risk if our battlefield plans are based on the political assumptions of civilian ideologues instead of the expertise of our military leaders. Some of those ideologues within and outside the White House painted a scenario of an easy military victory in Iraq because it fit their broader political goals. Our military planning needs to be based on more clear-eyed calculations.

All Americans hope that the war in Iraq can be concluded as quickly and successfully as possible, minimizing casualties among American troops and Iraqi civilians. If some of the assumptions on which our military plans were based have turned out to be flawed, our government should waste no time in changing plans accordingly and bolstering our forces in ways that can hasten military victory and serve our long-term security interests.

Your little insults and innuendoes show me that you have problem with my strength, and your weakness. You have me licking my chops like a hungry Lion as he eyeballs his prey.

:rolleyes: Really, I learned when I was 11 that those who talk like you just did in that post usually suffer from severe insecurities and a need to believe themselves something they will never be, unlike others I have no reason to trade barbs or try to belittle you. If you felt slighted by my last post perhaps you need to reflect on what is missing in your psyche that would turn what should be fairly obvious that you are not well perceived into some sort of statement of belittlement. If I were to desire to belittle you then I would not be nearly so subtle or indirect. Frankly I have the financial resources and law enforcement connections to not have to worry about your attempts at creating drama for your personal amusement. However, that sort of thing is not of interest to me and frankly is a waste of time and resources that are better saved and used for creating good for those I know and care about.

Have a nice life JD and hopefully in the future you will find some way to find the missing ingredient in your life that leaves you inclined towards being vindicative and meglomaniacal. May peace of mind some day find you and may that make your life better.

"The missing ingredient in my life"? Do you all copy eachother's material? If I had a dollar for every time I heard that one, I would have quite a bulge in my pocket right now. As far as law enforvcement goes, I know the letter of the law quite well. Do you honestly think I would waste my time finding & calling someone over a minor spat over the internet? Note the word "minor". It would have to be something done much much worse than this. Obviously what you've heard about what was done to me by others has been downplayed to the point where people believe I'll go off at the sound of a pin dropping. But if I did choose to do anything, you wouldn't be able to do a darned thing about it & I think you know that.

So why don't you tell me about your financial resources? It's funny, but I happen to have a few schillings myself. But I like to better call it the great motivator. There's no end to the lengths you can go when you have financial independence. Just remember, if you need to become aggressive, feel free. Everything you said about something missing in my psyche is exactly what I said to you in my last post. You need to take shots at me in order to cloak your weakness & build up your own weak self esteem. Like you said, it's not really worth it. I'm up against "Logical". I should know better. Let's not forget, this is just my opinion.

Spaniard,

"The missing ingredient in my life"? Do you all copy eachother's material? If I had a dollar for every time I heard that one, I would have quite a bulge in my pocket right now.

I guess if you weren't either an impotent man or a man of small stature you could have a large bulge in your pants without the money! This will be the only barb I offer you unless you beg for more like the whiney little masochistic man biatch I suspect you really are.

Have a nice night.

Dude, don't be a tard.

Posting under multiple handles is lame and unnecessary. Have the nads to use a handle and stick with it. Be the Pres, for better or worse.

I'm not even going to bother with your post. This time....

Brad, why do you suppose he hangs around here when it is clear that pretty much everyone either detests him or suffers his presence with impatience like the little freaking chihuahua nipping at their heels. He seems to want to be kicked or something.

Chiefs Pantalones 03-28-2003 02:04 AM

I think the reason he's posting under a different name (correct me if I'm wrong) is because he got banned under his original name a couple of days ago. I was skimming the BB and I think I came across that, although I'm not totally sure. Just throwin' stuff out.

You are probably correct, he does not seem to have the intellect to realize he is unwanted. Matter of fact it appears he has very little intellect at all.

Is it just me or does he remind others of the brown toothed redneck in deliverance who tries to hide the insecurity in his own masculinity by trying to find someone weak (Ned Beatty type) praying he can make them squeal like a pig. If he would ever satisfy that woman of his he might grow out of this sad pathetic existence. Obviously he does not know how to curl her toes.;) :LOL: ROFL

My I seemed to have had no trouble getting to your inner sanctum, Logical. I think it's quite precious how you need to insult ones family members when things don't go your way, or someone disagrees with you. I also enjoy the fact that you need your friends to hold your little hand.

Please continue your dance for me, Logical.

jd hasn't changed one bit...

you talk about us having no new material??? how many times have I seen 'dance for me, puppet' spoken by you??? or when was the last time I heard the phrase "needs your friends to hold your hand"... oh, that's right, last time you engaged me in 'battle', bro... yeah, about half a week ago, thereabouts...

seriously, the smack you throw is majorly weak... we know you're rich beyond your wildest dreams, we know that your wife is happy, we know that your dog is very VERY happy too, and that you're a beloved man by everyone who knows you... but whoever brought out the fact that you're a megelomaniac, that probably isn't too far off

wait, I'm just about ready to dance... yep, I'm dancing... dancing in the flames... (TIC)

your mighty generals haven't led you into war... oh shit, that's right... your mighty generals are too busy leaving your board because of 'YOUR' bungling ways (note: correct use of your)

oh, your (another correct use of 'your') mighty arsenal, my friend... where's that mighty arsenal??? oh, I remember... it's firmly entrenched up your ass

shall I go on??? how about your tax lawyer??? wait, didn't we all have a huge surprise coming last summer??? oh yeah... that never materialized... and what of all the retribution for everything anyone has ever done to you???

hmmm... so far the only 'punishment' we're getting is having to deal with your lame ass

I wonder if statements like these contributed to Pearle's resignation?

Richard Perle, recently resigned chairman of the Defense Policy Board, in a PBS interview July 11, 2002:

"Saddam is much weaker than we think he is. He's weaker militarily. We know he's got about a third of what he had in 1991."

"But it's a house of cards. He rules by fear because he knows there is no underlying support. Support for Saddam, including within his military organization, will collapse at the first whiff of gunpowder. "
