    DID SADDAM’S POISON RUIN BUSH’S SANITY AND FAMILY?
    "After all, this is the guy who tried to kill my dad." whined George W. Bush about Saddam Hussein. Actually, it may be worse than that. Sources close to the Army Medical Corp believe that someone, probably agents of Saddam Hussein, ruined Bush’s family by poisoning the drinking water with iodine or lithium at one of the Bushes’ homes. Family dog Millie, George, Barbara, and son Marvin have all contracted Auto Immune Diseases. The odds (…)

    from The New Hampshire Gazette Vol. 248, No. 3, November 7, 2003
    After the seizures in late 1942 of five U.S. enterprises he managed on behalf of Nazi industrialist Fritz Thyssen, Prescott Bush, the grandfather of President George W. Bush, failed to divest himself of more than a dozen "enemy national" relationships that continued until as late as 1951, newly-discovered U.S. government documents reveal.
    Furthermore, the records show that Bush and his (…)

    President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela
    Dear Mr President:
    We hear the news about your fourth trip to Iran with some concern. We believe that the Iranian regime is using your name and popularity among the Latin American masses, and progressive and anti-globalisation activists throughout the world, to falsely present a similar image for itself.
    Your Excellency, this regime is fundamentally different from your government which enjoys popular (…)

    There has been much throwing about of brains on the subject of George W. Bush’s further lurch to the Right since he limped over the election finish line with his tiny, 1 percent, fraud-marred majority. And to be sure, the wholesale purges he has instituted throughout his regime — replacing a slew of merely cringing sycophants with cringing, drooling, groveling sycophants — will indeed hasten the United States’ degeneration into corpo-religious authoritarianism (…)

    What did the Fascist regimes in Italy, Germany, and Spain have in common? They consisted of a highly militarized state, backed by corporation and a wealthy elite, that rose to power through a false populism that exploited the public’s fear of foreigners and “moral degenerates.” This precisely defines the formula that Karl Rove designed to consolidate the Bush administration’s power in the recent election.
