Since * is brought up the Nazis, it's fair to talk about his family ties
Can someone refresh my memory about the BFEE's ties to German war financing during WWII? I can't remember if it was Prescott who ran the bank that was seized by the US government. But hey, when * talks about Nazis, someone needs to say "takes one to know one." Afterall, he's the one creating a fascist state.

Actually I think it was the grandfathers brother, but it probably included all of that generation. BTW, the idiots grandfather and grandmother were founders of planned parenthood in their area, is that not ironic?

3. the interest of the Bush grandparents in birth control...
...had more to do with EUGENICS than anything else. The family clan has had a long romance with eugenics, even to the point that W's father was nicknamed "Rubbers" when he was a U.S. congressman because he kept dragging experts on various aspects of the topic of depopulation to lecture congress. The clan was interested in the depopulation of "lesser" groups of people, you know. Look it up; google "Bush eugenics" if you're interested in the truth.

4. Prescott Bush
Author links Bush family to Nazis

Sarasota Herald Tribune

The president of the Florida Holocaust Museum said Saturday <2001-01-27> that George W. Bush's grandfather derived a portion of his personal fortune through his affiliation with a Nazi-controlled bank.

John Loftus, a former prosecutor in the Justice Department's Nazi War Crimes Unit, said his research found that Bush's grandfather, Prescott Bush, was a principal in the Union Banking Corp. in Manhattan in the late 1930s and the 1940s.

Leading Nazi industrialists secretly owned the bank at that time, Loftus said, and were moving money into it through a second bank in Holland even after the United States declared war on Germany. The bank was liquidated in 1951, Loftus said, and Bush's grandfather and great-grandfather received $1.5 million from the bank as part of that dissolution.

7. And yet poppy and babs are cousins. Is it any wonder why their kids
turned out the way they did? Dimson is definitely certifiable.

5. It's not about family ties; it's the family business.
They are Nazis. When armies are defeated, the people who fund the armies live on. Don't believe what you read in the history books. Hitler was not a loner.

8. The legal term is, "he opened the door."
Well, I don't know if it's really the legal term, but lawyers use it to say that now that it's on the table, it's open for cross-examination.

So, go get 'em!

I wonder if KO would do a story on this? He's definitely piqued by Rummy & Dummy's comments about Nazis, perhaps he'd appreciate the irony.

10. The Hitler Project
Edited on Wed Sep-06-06 06:38 AM by Hubert Flottz
Bush Property Seized--Trading with the Enemy

snip...

By Oct. 26, 1942, U.S. troops were under way for North Africa. On Oct. 28, the government issued orders seizing two Nazi front organizations run by the Bush-Harriman bank: the Holland-American Trading Corporation and the Seamless Steel Equipment Corporation.@s2

U.S. forces landed under fire near Algiers on Nov. 8, 1942; heavy combat raged throughout November. Nazi interests in the Silesian-American Corporation, long managed by Prescott Bush and his father-in-law George Herbert Walker, were seized under the Trading with the Enemy Act on Nov. 17, 1942. In this action, the government announced that it was seizing only the Nazi interests, leaving the Nazis' U.S. partners to carry on the business.@s3

These and other actions taken by the U.S. government in wartime were, tragically, too little and too late. President Bush's family had already played a central role in financing and arming Adolf Hitler for his takeover of Germany; in financing and managing the buildup of Nazi war industries for the conquest of Europe and war against the U.S.A.; and in the development of Nazi genocide theories and racial propaganda, with their well-known results.

The facts presented here must be known, and their implications reflected upon, for a proper understanding of President George Herbert Walker Bush and of the danger to mankind that he represents. The President's family fortune was largely a result of the Hitler project. The powerful Anglo-American family associations, which later boosted him into the Central Intelligence Agency and up to the White House, were his father's partners in the Hitler project.

Trading with the Enemy

The Nazi - American Money Plot 1933-1949

by Charles Higham

p xiii
...a number of financial and industrial figures of World War II and several members of the government served the cause of money before the cause of patriotism. While aiding the United States' war effort, they also aided Nazi Germany's.

p xiv
It thus came as a severe shock to learn that several of the greatest American corporate leaders were in league with Nazi corporations before and after Pearl Harbor, including I.G. Farben, the colossal Nazi industrial trust that created Auschwitz. Those leaders interlocked through an association I have dubbed The Fraternity. Each of these business leaders was entangled with the others through interlocking directorates or financial sources. All were represented internationally by the National City Bank or by the Chase National Bank and by the Nazi attorneys Gerhardt Westrick and Dr. Heinrich Albert. All had connections to that crucial Nazi economist, Emil Puhl, of Hitler's Reichsbank and the Bank for International Settlements.

The tycoons were linked by an ideology: the ideology of Business as Usual. Bound by identical reactionary ideas, the members sought a common future in fascist domination regardless of which world leader might further that ambition.

Several members not only sought a continuing alliance of interests for the duration of World War II but supported the idea of a negotiated peace with Germany that would bar any reorganization of Europe along liberal lines. It would leave as its residue a police state that would place The Fraternity in postwar possession of financial, industrial, and political autonomy. When it was clear that Germany was losing the war the businessmen became notably more "loyal.''

18. Check out American Dynasty
Edited on Wed Sep-06-06 01:48 PM by Alcibiades
the book by Kevin Phillips, former Republican strategist (now an independent). Right now I'm reading his most recent book, American Theocracy. I highly recommend both

Damn, Kevin Phillips hates the Bushes! And rightly so.

I wonder--who put the "nasty" in "dynasty?" It must be the chimp!
