Gold, Oil and Drugs
The "G.O.D." worshiping Bush clan
Four generations of war and drug-war profiteers at the heart of America's power structure. :stupid2:
scary but so fn true
By David Malmo-Levine.
"This war is being fought to reinstate the real "god" - gold, oil and drugs."
- William Thomas (1)
The Bush Clan seems to be at the very heart of what is wrong with America. The 'old-boys-club secret-handshake death-cult war-profiteer hypocrite' mentality and economy is their specialty. With every new generations of Bushes, they redefine what most people in the world
wished was not part of the USA.
What you are about to read may astonish or anger you. Hopefully it will encourage you to do more research on your own, perhaps to correct or improve the record of what has been gathered here, perhaps to help in exposing these creeps before they do more damage. If you carefully read the following, the odds are good that you will not be 'voting Bush' ever again ... and if you're really smart you'll be watching all those other 'Skull and Bones' types more closely, too.
Part 1: Samuel Prescott Bush and Prescott Sheldon Bush
- The Death Merchant and the Nazi Banker
1907-1918 'Merchant of Death'
"If the people were to ever find out what we have done, we would be chased down the streets and lynched." -- George H. W. Bush, cited in the June, 1992 Sarah McClendon Newsletter (2)
In 1907, Samuel Prescott Bush (Dubya's great grandfather) was elected President of Buckeye Steel Castings Co. For his entire career, Sam supplied Wall Street with castings for their railroads. Sam later
became the first president of the National Manufactures Association - or 'NAM' for short. NAM has since had a history of supporting fascist right-wing organizations, including having a hand in creating the John Birch society. (3)
In 1917, Prescott Sheldon Bush (Sam's son and Dubya's grandfather) joined the Skull and Bones society at Yale.(4) Skull and Bones was incorporated in 1856 by opium smugglers W. H. Russell and Daniel C. Gilman - not the last time Skull & Bones members would involve
themselves in the global drug trade. (5)
OHHHHHHHHHHH SNAP maybe 1 day i'll post some more :yelclap.gif:

:lol: ok i couldnt help myself
In 1918, Samuel Prescott Bush was made director of the facilities division of the US War Industries Board under its chairman Bernard Baruch & his assistant, the banker Clarence Dillon. It was here the Bush clan learned how profitable war could be. (6) Dillon would later help Sam's son get a job managing the coal mines at Auschwitz. (see below)
Samuel Bush was labeled a "Merchant of Death" in the years following the Great War as investigations determined that the German Army was largely armed by him. After WWI, Germany was stripped of their arms,
but Samuel Bush was allowed to keep his millions, and his arms business was allowed to grow and prosper. In 1944 he was awarded a huge government contract to make armor casings for WWII. (7)
In 1918, Prescott Bush served as an intelligence officer at the Front in France during World War One. (8) This would be the beginning of the long relationship between the Bush clan and America's Intelligence community.
1926-1952 War-Profiteering and Nazi Banking
"The Bush family fortune came from the Third Reich."
-John Loftus, former US Justice Dept. Nazi War Crimes investigator and President of the Florida Holocaust Museum quoted in the Sarasota Herald-Tribune 11/11/2000 (9)
In 1926, Prescott Bush was promoted to Vice-President of W. A. Harriman & Co. Clarence Dillon of Dillon Read, set up the German Steel Trust with Thyssen & partner, Fredrick Flick. Thyssen was Hitler's first major industrial backer. Bush and Harriman - along with George Herbert Walker - owned a third of Flickís holding company, and called their share 'Consolidated Silesian Steel Corp.'.
Prescott's job was to manage the finances of a coal mine very close to where the Auschwitz concentration camp was later built. According to a Dutch intelligence agent, Prescott Bush managed a portion of the slave labor force in Poland during World War 2. (10)
Greed wasn't the only motivation for being a Nazi banker - Prescott Bush was also an active white supremacist. In 1931, he and (Dubya's other great-grandfather and namesake) George Walker hosted the Third International Congress of Eugenics. The purpose of the event was to call for the sterilization of fourteen million Americans (none of whom were named 'Bush' or 'Walker' or any other name found at Yale). (11)
In 1934, Hitler was in solid control of Germany and the profits from the Thyssen-Flick union soared to over a hundred million. All the Nazi-connected banks were overflowing with money. Prescott Bush became managing director of Union Bank and took over the day-to-day operations of the German plan. (12) In October of 1942, the US Alien Property Custodian seized the stock shares of this bank for 'Trading with the enemy'. (13) The Bush family would still make $1.5 million from their investment in Nazi Germany. (14)

:spam.gif:
in germany diesel is around 1.00 EUR per liter and unleaded normal or super gasoline is around 1.20-1.30 EUR per liter. SUV and all these very large cars are seldom seen in germany.
in average a car you see on a german highway takes abt 6 - 10 liter per 100 kilometers, so driving is still payable. although a porsche, bmw or mercedes can take around 25 liter and more on the highway, when driven faster than 200 km/h.

4.5 L make one gallon = $ 4.50 OUCH
1 gallon imperal
not US GALLON
89.9 cents a liter here in calgary , funny thing is that alberta produces 30% of the oil used in North amercia and have a very rich supply of raw crude and also even more stock in the tar sands up in the north, they predict we have in reserve more that the saudi's, .........so they say...........
that works out to
3.68 Lts to the US gallon X .899 = $3.31 cdn X .813(us exchange rate-prime) $2.70 per us gallon up .20cents per gallon from last week.
The Worst thing is that hasn't come to light as for yet . Deisel also rose last week by .15 cents a gallon US , and the trucking companies are will be forced to raise their prices because of this , which in turn will be passed on to the consumer , so not only will we all be forced to pay high prices at the pumps , we will also be hit at the till, then the work force will need higher wages to cover the higher costs of living.........
And the wheel just keeps on turning.........we get poorer and they keep getting richer
Anyway folks , I'm off to The motor city today . got to be there by wedensday morning ,,,1800 miles my truck gets 6.2 miles per gallon thats going to cost me $675 Us for fuel..........Ouch

I believe that San Diego has always lead the country in gas prices. Today the county average is $2.617 US Gallon.
The funny thing I heard recently is that California is concerned about the increase in sales of Hybrid vehicles. The lack of fuel tax income to the state will seriously harm the states budget. So now they are looking at ways to tax owners of hybrid vehicles. Most likely both in sales tax and yearly registration fees.
Wasn't the government offering incentives to the manufacturers, and to buyers for fuel saving, cleaner emissions vehicles? Now they want to penalize them.
Also, the state recently changed the laws for emissions testing of vehicles. Where we were required to have all vehicles tested every other year at a cost on avg. of $50 for the test, and $20 for the state certificate. Now vehicles 6 years or newer are exempt from all testing..
However, you still must pay the $20 fee (the portion that goes to the state). The emissions testing stations that had to invest $30k in testing equipment are not real happy about this.
:LolLolLolLol:

Our emission law is like this;
A test is need if the age of the vehicle is between 2-18 years of age.
Every 2 years and the test paper results are good for 2 years in case you want to sell the vehicle.
$ 39 is the cost of the test.
If you need repairs,it's capped at $ 500 bucks.used to be $ 200.
Odd year than even year vehicles are required to have the test
Even year than Odd year vehicles are required to have the test
But the kicker is,the vehicle must FIT ENOUGH to go on the test appartus, if it isn't well cough up more money or else no sticker :cowboy:

Our emission law is like this;...
My God, I thought California was the only place to have this goofy emissions crap. Where is this? Minnesota was starting to be just as goofy, but they bagged their emissions program. Most cars are rusted out from the salt they use on the roads before the vehicles have any emissions.
