Why do people say such TERRIBLE things about the Bush Family?

Edited on Sat Sep-04-04 11:28 AM by Minstrel Boy

Perhaps because they've done terrible things.

About Kitty Kelley's forthcoming book, and her allegations of Poppy's pedophilia....

Have you ever heard of the Franklin Credit Union Scandal? Despite the salacious stories of sex and violence in high places, it was disappeared more efficiently than any scandal in American history. Why was that?

In the 1980s, a man named Lawrence King launched a credit union in Omaha. He became one of the most prominent black Republicans in America. He sang the national anthem at two Republican National Conventions. He was a friend of powerful state and national figures, including billionaire Warren Buffett and then-Vice President George Herbert Walker Bush.

King was also an abusive pedophile, who ran an adolescent sex ring out of his office that enjoyed the protection of US security and intelligence apparatus, which exploited the children to ensnare certain figures for blackmail, and reward others.

King is serving time, and recently lost a million dollar lawsuit by one of his former child hookers who took the midnight tour of the White House, organized through the VP's office.

Did it happen? Goddamn right it did. But Poppy mixed up in a child sex ring? It's too outrageous to process. So the screen slides across the mind, and it's as though it never happened.

Nebraska State legislature retained investigator Gary Caradori to delve into allegations of a paedophile ring run out of the Franklin Credit Union, which implicated not only some of the most powerful figures in the state, but high officials in Washington as well.

Caradori and his 12-year old son were flying home in Caradori's private plane, after a trip to Chicago for his boy to see the 1990 allstar game, and for Gary to do a little investigating.

He'd been gathering testimony and evidence of a child prostitution ring which implicated senior Republicans in the state and in DC, and operated with the knowledge of VP Bush (a number of the teens placed Bush at sex parties) and the protection of intelligence agencies (call boys being used to ensnare VIPS for the purposes of blackmail), all tied to a credit union which was laundering money for Iran/Contra, and had been founded by an abusive paedophile who'd sang the national anthem at the GOP national conventions in 1984 and 1988.

Caradori called the committee chief, Senator Loran Schmit, from Chicago to say he had the smoking gun. "We've got them! There's no way they can get out of it now!" Returning with evidence, his small plane broke up midair. A farmer witnessed a flash of light and heard an explosion. That made the early news, but subsequent reports said the plane exploded on impact. The wreckage was examined at a military base and ruled an accident. His briefcase was never recovered.

Senator Schmit told reporters later that day in the Nebaska statehouse, "There were a lot of people in this state who wanted to see Gary dead. They got their wish."

Former CIA Director William Colby was secretly hired by the Nebraska legislature's committee to look into the investigator's death. Colby warned his friend, author, lawyer and former State Senator John DeCamp to stay away, or he could end up dead as well, because "sometimes there are forces and events too big, too powerful."

Here's a transcription from DeCamp's The Franklin Cover-Up, page 176:

"Nelly first brought up (GHW) Bush in 1986, when she told Julie Walters about the sex parties she was flown to in Washington and Chicago. She saw Bush at two of these parties, she said, one in each city.

"Nelly also told Walters that one frequent party-goer with King was a boy named 'Brent,' the one who was 'flown to another city somewhere' after a falling out with King. Walters did not have the time to cross-check this information with the life of Brandt Thomas, the Boys Town resident who had moved in with Larry King. Franklin credit union files contained a letter signed by King, in his capacity as Youth Affairs Committee advisor for the National Black Republican Council, listing Thomas as one of two national contact people for NBRC campus chapters.

"Three years later, with an investigation of abuse by King and the Webbs finally underway, Nelly was interviewed again. Speaking to Franklin committee detective Jerry Lowe, she repeated her account of the Chicago party, and said that Bush and the two men he arrived with appeared to have left the affair with a young black man she called 'Bandit.'...

"Bush's name surfaced again in Lowe's May 1989 review of reports by Thomas Vlahoulis from the state attorney general's office: "both Kimberly and Nelly brought up the name of George Bush and indicated that they had both met him." There is a psychologist in Omaha who used to work for the CIA. In response to a direct question by an Omaha psychiatrist regarding George Bush's private life, this psychologist reported hearing rumors when Bush was head of the CIA, that correspond directly with the inferences made by Nelly Webb, and commented to the psychiatrist, 'But how do you investigate your boss?'"

From the "Omaha" chapter of Webster Tarpley's unauthorized (no kidding) autobiography of Poppy:

"Sound crazy? Not to Steve Bowman, an Omaha businessman who is compiling a book about the Franklin money and sex scandal. 'We do have some credible witnesses who say that "Yes, George Bush does have a problem."... Child abuse has become one of the epidemics of the 1990s,' Bowman told GQ....

"Mrs. Julie Walters, now a housewife in the Midwest, confirmed that in 1986 she had interviewed the alleged child prostitute, Lisa, who told her about Mr. Bush. Lisa and her sister Tracey were temporarily living at the time in the home of Kathleen Sorenson, another foster parent. Mrs. Walters explained that at first she was very surprised. But Lisa, who came from a very underprivileged background with no knowledge of political affairs, gave minute details of her attendance at political meetings around the country."

From Julie Walters' 50-page handwritten report:

"3/25/86. Met with Kathleen and Lisa for about 2 hours in Blair questioning Lisa for more details about sexual abuse.... Lisa admitted to being used as a prostitute by Larry King when she was on trips with his family. She started going on trips when she was in 10th grade. Besides herself and Larry there was also Mrs. King, their son, Prince, and 2-3 other couples. They traveled in Larry's private plane, Lisa said that at these trip parties, which Larry hosted, she sat naked 'looking pretty and innocent' and guests could engage in any sexual activity they wanted (but penetration was not allowed) with her.... Lisa said she first met V.P. George Bush at the Republican Convention (that Larry King sang the national anthem at) and saw him again at a Washington, D.C. party that Larry hosted. At that party, Lisa saw no women ('make-up was perfect--you had to check their legs to make sure they weren't a woman')."
