What's the story with Marvin Bush????
Why is he never mentioned? I keep hearing this ad for the Colitis Foundation put out by his mother Barbara?? This has disturbed me for years. I've even seen quotes by his father talking about his 3 sons. There are 4!!!!

3. He probably won't do the illegal
things the rest of them will. In most families, the black sheep is the bad one...in the Bush family, the black sheep is the good one.

2. Get your tinfoil hat on...
Marvin Bush was head of the company that provided security for the World Trade Center on 9/11.

5. He actually left the company just before 9/11, not just afterward...
The company in question, Stratesec, was backed by the investment firm Kuwaiti-American Corp.
Meanwhile, Marvin also sat on the board of the company that insured parts of the World Trade Center. As these two companies had commercial interests in the same building, the fact that he was on both boards, by law, had to be filed with the SEC. It never was.

He announced that he was leaving the company a full year before he did so.

13. i know there is so much shit, ooops mean coincidences to remember
i swear i have forgotten more than i remember. and i remember a lot. it is like any point in time in this administration, in every area, one has to research, listen and find the truth in what they are really saying. nothing can just be taken as a truth. even things he doesnt need to lie about, he lies

7. Media went hog wild on Billy Carter and Roger Clinton
But -- curiously -- pays no attention whatsoever to the Bush Boys who are so in bed with the Red Communist Menace Chinese. What the hell, there is money to be made.

15. Marvin?
You mean the man whose children's nanny "accidently" ran herself over in Marvin's driveway with her own car?

Yeah, this family is a real piece of work.
