25. I would have thought that this connection would have caused Evangelicals to shun *
never figured out how this didn't enrage the average xenophobic Republican voter, not to mention their closeness to the Saudis.

29. Reading Russ Baker's Family of Secrets"....
Russ theorizes that Watergate & the break-in of Ellberg's psychiatrists' office was done messily to sabotage the Nixon presidency (in part to his pre-occupation of that "bay of pigs" thing. Says Prescott was pissed that Nixon didn't choose HW for VP slot. I was wondering if you have commented on this and I have missed it.

Thanks :patriot:

60. Several DUers came to this conclusion in 2003 or 2004.
The discussions had to do with the similarities of the times: A president moves toward peace -- JFK with the USSR; Nixon with Red China; and Reagan with the USSR -- and WHAMMO! Next thing you know, the Cold War keeps going.

mod mom, my Friend, I've scoured the archives and my bookmarks to no avail. I promise to continue in order to flesh out the details. Perhaps it was earlier, I can't access the older archives before the big move. Some ideas from then:

'Watergate', Daddy Bush and Kissinger

Along these lines on DU...

Has your opinion of the JFK assassination changed this week?

Poll question: Reagan Assasination attempt. Lone Gunman? Conspiracy? Poppy?

A Short History of Conspiracy Theory


Note 1: The subject is a work in progress. The entries are not perfect, nor are they complete. They do provide a framework for a who's-who and what's-what and how we got here. Started for educational and historical purposes, these threads are meant to serve the public interest. What gives them a special quality are the contributions of DUers. May they also serve some prosecutor in the future.

Note 2: As no individual is totally evil or totally good, not all Bushes are evil or beholden to the BFEE. Nor are all those who gain by its existence members of the immediate or extended Bush family. Nor are the Bushes at the pinnacle of global power -- it is quite likely they serve an even wealthier class. What they all have in common is the use of the powers of the government of the United States for accumulating wealth and power for themselves, their associates and the other affiliated beneficiaries among the world's financial elite and authoritarian regimes. Always, they gain at the expense of the people and nations of the world, including the citizens of the United States and its Constitution.

12. Prescott Sheldon Bush - The guy sure liked the right people.
For starters...

Smedley Butler FTR BBC Coup against FDR

"The coup was aimed at toppling President Franklin D Roosevelt with the help of half-a-million war veterans. The plotters, who were alleged to involve some of the most famous families in America, (owners of Heinz, Birds Eye, Goodtea, Maxwell Hse & George Bush’s Grandfather, Prescott) believed that their country should adopt the policies of Hitler and Mussolini to beat the great depression."

Mike Thomson and the BBC investigated why so little is known about this biggest ever peacetime threat to American democracy.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/history/document/document_20070723.shtml

DuPont and Morgan and the rest were worse than real turds. They were traitors. Just like their heir, George W Bush today.

The Great Dave Emory recently interviewed Jules Archer, now 90 or so, who first published a history on this treason:

41. FDR didn't make many mistakes but when he did they were HUGE.
For one he should have rounded up all the traitors involved in the attempted coup and had them, and their families shot dead.

For another, he should have had Prescott Bush shot for running oil to the Nazi's during ww2 at a time when the Nazi's were torpedoing the shit out of our and our allies ships.

Maybe not;
"By 2008 several current and former assistant U.S. attorneys were known to have engaged in a wide variety of criminal conduct including association with prostitution rings,<3> sexual battery,<4> sexual abuse of children,<5> and failures to make mandatory conflict of interest disclosures."

38.Simon (candidate for Gov. of California). “He is a breath of fresh air.”
Bush sho hated that California Smog for he avoided Simon while in his presence.

“Bush revises view on combat in Iraq”.---May I on USS Desertion he said-- “Combat Operations are over”.. Now—“Actually, Major military operations continue because we still have combat operations going on”. Is this boy of scorched brain or what?

45. TEACH FOR AMERICA PROGRAM ZAPPED BY BUSH. I am pissed off. Big time. In 2000 campaign Bush promised President Wendy Koop to expand it. His aides asked President Wendy Koop to quadruple it. . On July 11,2003 she got a letter “We regret to inform you your application was not selected for funding”. Gone. Zapped totally. Bush is one of sorriest not just worst in history. Read TIME—8-17-03. Joe Klein article headed “WHO KILLED TEACH FOR AMERICA”? Sorry, but I am so furious I have difficulty writing. I do not like to curse but xxxxxxx.

E. 3-13-02—“I don’t know where Bin Laden is. I have no idea and I really don’t care. It’s not that important. It’s not our priority.” Wow!

46. Bush told bob Woodward in his book “Bush War” that “he didn’t feel that sense of urgency” about Al Qaeda prior to 9-11”. Now claims had great sense of urgency.

56. Columbia Journalism Review—Bush vetoed Patients Bill Of Rights as Governor but boasted how he got it passed. Now, flip flop to double straddle. He touted the Texas law as super duper.
When a challenge to the Texas Law went before Supreme Court Bush joined with two HMO’s in opposing the law. Could it be because the HMO’s are Pioneers in his campaign. Doesn’t this man have any honor or integrity?

57.Remove troops from Korea. A proposal by Cheney. Bush on 3-13-02 “There is no question we have obligations around the world, which we will keep.

Ho! Hum! Just another day in Bush Waffle House.

64. Speech in LA—Belliaco—Peter Fredson—4-24-06
Bush—“I know people here are suffering at the gas pump. I feel your pain. I Pledge to the people here f I find any price gouging it will be dealt with firmly

He did not note the simple obvious. Exxon demand is down but PROFITS are at all time high for any corporation.

65. National Anthem in Spanish—Bush says it is wrong. In 2001 Campaign he had singers sing it in Spanish and applauded them.
“When I make up my mind it stays made up.”

66. “A leader never Admits mistakes”
Press conference with Blair in 6-06 Is he normal?
“I regret saying “Bring Em On” and “Get OBL Dead Or Alive”

69.Bush Press Conference on Lebanon crisis—8-06-Chris Elliott seaboard on line
”I’m not prejudiced. As a matter of fact Dick Cheney’s daughter is Lebanese. I think a marriage should be between a man and a woman not a woman and a man.” So clear George! Snort! Snort!
70. Interview by Couric with Bush on 9-7-06 and Bush said-“One of the hardest parts of my job is to connect Iraq with the war on terrorism”. Lordie! Is he sane? The only connection was his manufactured one to sell the Iraq slaughterama. Records show only 2% of those captured or killed in Iraq were non-residents of Iraq. 98% Freedom Fighters and/or Civil Warriors.
71. “The buldge on my back in Kerry Debate was ill-fitting suit”. Not so Said NASA Photo expert. A Box.
No so said ItalianTailor who made the suit. “It fit perfectly”.
72. Told Wolf Blitzer on 9-20-06 I would “absolutely send troops into Pakistan to find OBL.” Week ago said he would not without Pakistan permission since it is a sovereign nation. Trust me. I say what I mean and mean what I say. Sometimes.
73.Bartcop-9-28-06 Bush said in the interview ”If the terrorists weren’t in Iraq, they would find some other excuse, because they have ambitions”. This an adult speaking? Fourth grader!

#73 is almost beyond comprehension.

73. Unbelievable-Unreal—He said it—Interview with G. Stephanopoulos week 10-22-06—“James Baker plan is to develop a strategy between-- “STAY THE COURSE”-- and “cut and run”? Bush Reply—“We’ve never been about “STAY THE COURSE”.
Tell me he is sober! Please. ---“STAY THE COURSE” --has been his frequent chant.-- 5-5-04—But we will STAY THE COURSE 4-16-04—That’s why we’re going to “STAY THE COURSE”—4-13-04—“and my message today to those in Iraq “WE’LL STAY THE COURSE”
--8-4-05—“WE WILL STAY THE COURSE”. We will complete the job in Iraq”—8-30-06—“WE WILL STAY THE COURSE”—
details at think progress.org It is hard to accept he is not mentally deranged.
74. WE DON’T TORTURE—why are our soldiers being convicted of it. Bush has been six years of mental torture to the people.
75. 11-13-06 “People who hate us. They hate the idea that somebody can go buy a home”” They will need to buy many to replace the ones we destroyed. Needlessly. Do you believe that is the reason./Or—is it that four members of 101st raped a 14 year old girl, burned her body, and killed parents and 6 year old sister? Or, destroyed Fallujah home to 250,000?Or, killed 550,000 innocent persons. Or or or or This Recovering Drunk is brain scorched frat boy.
76. 11-06-06—Tony Snow-“The president says we are winning the war”. This after Robert Gates testimony in the Senate “we are losing the war in Iraq”. Iraq Survey Group testimony--”We are losing the war in Iraq”.
Bush said to his Biographer in 1999--“A Leader does not admit mistakes”. He just takes another shot of Jack and smiles.
77. 12-20-06—Press conference-“We are not winning or losing in Iraq”. Last week in press conference-“We are absolutely wining”. ”I say what I Mean and Mean what I say”. “Trust me”.
78. 12-06—“I think it’s been a very difficult year in Iraq.
It’s my job to listen to a lot of opinions and come up with a strategy that says “we have a plan”.
Same person who said many times “The Democrats do not have a plan for Iraq”. He never read Reid 528 Page plan which Senate Repubs would not allow on the floor for a vote.
79. Bush wrote 10-14-03 memo to Rev. Troy Perry on 35th anniversary of his church. Prior to this letter Bush had proclaimed “marriage is a sacred institution defending traditional family of man and woman.
Perry had promoted Gay Marriage many times on national press. His church members were astonished that Bush would write such a memo. Even World Net Daily castigated Bush on it. 2003WorldNetDaily.com memo 11-12-03
‘I will do anything to win” credo of Bush Family.
80. April 2003—Iran wrote White House offerring discussionCheney sid “We do not negotiate with terrorists we destroy them?

81.No waffle just stupid --cnn showed (7-19-07)Bush speaking about an amputee he had met.
He said “He is a good man. we are going to get him new legs”.
82. Wait one moment—Bush signed an Executive Order on 7-20-07 Outlawing Torture. Last month he told a group of High School students in the White House “We do not torture”. How many times has he and Tony Snow said it. Why outlaw a vacuum?
He was lying then or now. You chose.
83. 7-23-07—Bush has spent five years disclaiming any correlation between Vietnam and Iraq. Speech to VFW on 7-22-07 was entirely about the correlation of Vietnam to Iraq. Disgusting to take this blarney blabber from a loon.
clarence swinney
84. How much more can I stomach---
8-8-07 Bush to Neil Cavuto—“No, I’m not a federal bailout guy—Let the Market work”.
8-31-07—Bush in speech—“we will help home owners who can’t pay their loans”.
85.Alki again? NY Times 9-4-07—Book-‘Dead Certain” author interviewed Bush who said he knew nothing on Bremer decision to fire Saddam’s army. Bremer wrote NY Times saying he personally told Bush and got a letter thanking him and praising him as a great leader. Bremer said many defense officials were told of the decision ahead of time.
Bush is a Recovering Drunk (by admission) so you can understand his faulty memory.
86. 9-6-07 Sydney Morning Herald—phillip cooley—Deputy Prime Minister asked Bush what he saw in Iraq—Bush replied –“We’re kicking ass”—and killing hundreds of thousands and maiming tens of thousands for life—same loon who said this—He was asked what he and Dad talked about when alone. His reply “pussy”. Is he sane? Dead or alive—Bring em on
87.LOON?—In Australia for the APEC summit he made these two very very stupid remarks according to AP 9-5-07 –
To Australian PM--”Thank you for being such a fine host for this OPEC summit”—“Thank you PM Howard for visiting “AUSTRIAN” troops in Iraq last year”. TELL ME HE IS NOT STUPIIID.
88. 2-14-07—Reuters—Bush certain “Iran” was providing weapons to fighters in Iraq. Two hours later he said he had no knowledge Iran officials were part of the arms deal. He is smart? Ho hum.
89. Just dumb remarks—“you know, one of the hardest parts of my job is to connect Iraq to the war on terror”--
“if the Iranians were to have a nuclear weapon, they could proliferate”—“those who enter the country illegally violate the law”—‘It is a time of sorrow when we lose a loss of life”--
—“I believe that—young cows ought to be allowed to go across the border”—“the illiteracy level of our children are appalling”—
“Is our children learning”
He graduated from two colleges?
90.
Director of national intelligence mike mconnell told the senate so called patriot act helped thwart an alleged terror plot in germany.
Gov official told NYT he was wrong. It was under old FISA act.
McConnell said he was wrong. Lied or mistaken?
91. Alcohol Mind At Work—9-19-07—Press Conference-“I think I got a B in Economics 101.”
Grade records show two courses and grades of 71 and 72. This punk is unreal.
92. Same press conference. “I got an A for keeping taxes low and being fiscally responsible with the people’s money.” He is insane. Totally Nuts. Spend & Borrow is let kids pay tomorrow. Sixty per cent increase in spending on borrowed money is not responsible. DRINKING AGAIN?
93. On Iraq war 9-20-07—“President Saddam Hussein brutality had made it impossible for a unifying leader to emerge and stop the sectarian violence that engulfed the Middle East Nation. I heard somebody say “where’s Mandela”. Mandela’s dead because Saddam Hussein killed all the Mandellas.” Nelson Mandella is alive in South Africa. Yes! He is on Jack again.
94. 9-24-07-Bush was asked if he is an asset or liability for Republicans in next year’s election. His reply “strong asset”.
He has not read the many articles in major papers that the candidates are running frorn his horrible record.
Oh! I forgot. He does not read papers or watch TV. What a punchy!
95. 9-25-07 Bush with group of kids in White House on NCLB—He said--“childrens do learn”. Wow! Normal mind?
96. The LOON told a Harvard Professor—“People are poor because they are lazy”
97. Beyond comprehension. On SCHIP veto Bush said these immortal words of inaneness—“No one goes without Health Care in America. After all, you go to an emergency room.” I ask Americans in seriousness-IS THIS LOON SANE?
98.10-18-07 A reporter asked Bush why he vetoed the schip bill. His reply “To ensure that I am relevant”.
President smartass recovering dry alcoholic puke punk
99. Middle East Hero-In campaign Bush told how he would solve middle east conflict.
He said “I will ride herd” on recalcitrant leaders by picking up the telephone whenever necessary and help produce an agreement”.
Typical bravado moogumboo by a recovering dry drunk.
Jennifer wrote that Bush “has been more a sporadic speaker than engaged enforcer over 7 years of turmoil” The Nov 2007 Annapolis meeting is his last stop effort.

53. ya know, if it all wasn't so sad, it would almost be funny
but as a nation, the citizens are asleep and don't care a thing about their rights or their duties.

Good luck to all you guys that give a damn, it's an up hill crapball pushing event you face.
