Rob Allyn is a "longtime Bush family adviser"; Foreign Agents Registration Act?

Rob Allyn heads the Texas company Allyn & Company which will be trying to burnish Mexico's image and thereby support their attempts to send us their unwanted citizens.

It shouldn't be any surprise that Allyn has links to Our Leader. In fact, he's described here as a "longtime Bush family adviser".

For instance:

the Allyn Co. also worked during the 2000 Republican primaries in the U.S. According to an April 6, 2000, article in the Dallas Observer, Rob Allyn was a key player in the George W. Bush campaign to discredit his rival for the 2000 Republican presidential nomination Senator John McCain. Millionaire Bush supporter Sam Wyly funded Republicans for Clean Air to attack McCain in key states during the 2000 primary campaign. Rob Allyn was paid $46,000 to help create the ads.

So, he's representing Mexico's interests, and he also has deep links to the Bushes. In fact, the following quote makes me wonder whether he's currently getting any money from Our Leader or others associated with him:

Mr. Allyn said [Bush's "temporary" worker scheme] would be a step toward making immigration "safe and legal and orderly and controlled." Immigrants are a valuable source of labor to the U.S., he added.

Allyn also worked for Haitian presidential candidate Dumarsais "Dumas" Simeus, who owns a business in Texas and was a member of Jeb Bush's "Haiti Task Force."

Apropos of something or nothing, Allyn also lead the PR campaign to get Arlington a stadium for the Cowboys.

There's also audio of an interview KFI's John & Ken did with him here, although at post time the audio link doesn't work.

I'm not sure, but I think that Allyn or his company will have to register as a Foreign Agent. There's a FAQ on that here:

The purpose of FARA is to insure that the American public and its law makers know the source of information (propaganda) intended to sway public opinion, policy, and laws. In 1938, the FARA was Congress' response to the large number of German propaganda agents in the pre-WWII U.S... ...An agent of a Foreign principal is any individual or organization which acts at the order, request, or under the direction or control of a foreign principal, or whose activities are directed by a foreign principal who: ... 2. acts in a public relations capacity for a foreign principal...

It's certainly a worrying development that a sitting president is so closely linked to someone who might have to register as a Foreign Agent.

UPDATE: From 2004 came "Foreign Lobbyist Database Could Vanish: Justice Department claims merely copying its foreign agents database could destroy it". That claim was contained in an answer to a FOIA request, and I find that almost impossible to believe. The only possible way I can conceive of that being true is if the records are stored on a fragile medium, such as tapes or something ancient like ferrite core memory. The latter hasn't been used since I would imagine the early 70s or earlier. And, in any case, if they don't have a backup (or three), we're all in big trouble. Even if this data is stored in some ancient system, there has to be a fairly simple way to transfer all the data to a modern hard disk. Then, a simple program can be written to put that into a database. It might not be as easily searched or manipulated, but it would be usable. Obviously, either the government or the contractor who's migrating the system is blowing smoke. See also "Call for GAO Investigation Follows Center Report" and this.

Oh yes merry x mas, i hope this time next year we will not be ruled by mexico and its drug dealers.
sadly we will see 20 million more mexicans and south so called americans and name it inside this nation for the reasons of dismantling it for evil.

death to the enemies of freedom and death to all who stand against the bill of rights, ask how long before you see the insides of a camp system made for reeducation, if you know what i mean?

Mrs.Claus is right and gary is right we all know this has been going on for years, and the only way its going to hit home is when the money disappears into the hands of the mexican oligarchies and who want all non hispanices dead
or max into the mexican or south american enslaved inhabits, if people here don't get what is happening just wait when the system starts to take away rights and move to make what la vozde aztlan calls the removal..see Aztlan and understand what allyn and bush and most of this non government has for you in the future.

Arms can make you free AND IF YOU WANT THE THIRD WORLD JUST KEEP ON THIS EVIL ROAD.

Allyn probably isn't getting any money directly from Bush or the RNC. There's no need - the Mexican government has plenty of money to spend on this sort of thing. What I find astounding is that no one from either party has stood up and said "this is wrong." Imagine if the Soviet Union had openly contracted with an American PR firm back in the days of the Cold War. This is not that different; I think an excellent case could be made that the Mexican government is an antagonistic regime. They are certainly in a position to cause us more harm than Hugo Chavez a/k/a Tropical Trotsky, who Bush tried to remove from power some years ago, without success.

Audio is back up Mr. Lonewacko

I would say that, in addition to forcing Allyn to register as a 'foreign agent', it might behoove use to also force George to register as a 'foreign agent'!

All the pieces are falling into place now. But the American public is not buying it!
