Bremer's past....
Edited on Wed Jan-31-07 08:26 PM by happydreams
Does anybody here know anything about Bremer's past? I'm just curious. Please provide info you may have from your files or memory etc.

On edit: I found some stuff:

Bremer former exec at Kissinger and Associates he worked for Kissinger in 72-74 as well:

"After retiring from the State Department in 1989, Bremer became managing director at Kissinger Associates, the global "consulting" firm run by former Secretary of State and Unindicted War Criminal Henry A. Kissinger.

At the State Department, Bremer served as Kissinger's executive assistant in the 1970's. In plain English, Bremer is Kissinger's Gofer.

One month after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, Bremer was named
chairman and chief executive of Marsh Crisis Consulting company, which
"advises companies on natural disasters, lawsuits and terrorism."

In other words, if you pay the right price to the right Republican controlled offshore

3. I wonder if he knows where the missing $9 billion went

and whether he's made some particularly large real estate investments in the recent past. Paraguay, maybe? Didn't Bremer spend about 11 years in a high level position with Henry Kissinger's private consulting firm? Apparently some of those Kissinger clients are so secret and disturbing that Henry Kissinger turned down the appointment as UN Ambassador that John Bolton eventually accepted because it meant he might have to reveal the identities of his clients.

6. I remember reading, somewhere...
that he was a bush cousin.

I don't know if that is accurate, but I do see a resemblance...
