THE BUSH FAMILY or: W. DOES A COMMERCIAL

Yes, by all means! Let us now all believe the words of the man considered to be hands down the worst President in our country’s history when his vapid face appears on our TV screen and stares blankly at us from a new political ad as he extols the virtues and qualifications of his baby brother Jeb for the office of President of these United States.

We should most definitely all believe this jackass who, after ignoring repeated warnings that something like 9/11 would take place, including the famous CIA Presidential Daily Brief “Bin Laden Determined to Strike in U.S.” did nothing! And, was then subsequently manipulated by Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld and their super-rich masters, into waging an illegal war on a country that had nothing to do with 9/11 and in doing so cost the lives of hundreds of thousands of people, American and Iraqi, and bankrupted our economy along the way.

Oh – well… he did land on that carrier in 2003 Mr. Macho did…wearing a navy flight suit to breathlessly tell us all; “In the Battle of Iraq, the United States and our allies have prevailed…” Only thing is it was eight years too premature. And it was eight long years and 3,424 American lives killed since the man who had weaseled his way out of serving in Viet Nam had the nerve to wear that naval flight suit. Ironically, in order to evade serving in Viet Nam he joined The Texas Air National Guard and had scored only 25 percent on a “pilot aptitude” test, the lowest acceptable grade.

A study, published in 2011, estimated that besides American lives lost and families destroyed, approximately 500,000 Iraqis had died as a result of the conflict since the invasion. This is blood on George W. Bush’s hands.

But wait! Now little bro’ Jeb – campaign floundering – has also enlisted the aid of his dear white-haired mommy Barbara, the despicable queen of the vile Bush clan who famously said of the Hurricane Katrina victims crammed together in The New Orleans Superdome with limited power, no plumbing, a shredded roof and not nearly enough supplies to deal with the 30,000 evacuees; “They’re underprivileged anyway, so this is working very well for them.” What a sweetheart she.

Some of this family’s history: US senator Prescott Bush, George H. W. Bush’s father and the grandfather of George W. Bush, was a director and shareholder of companies that profited from their involvement with the financial backers of Nazi Germany. It has been suggested that the money he made from these dealings helped to establish the Bush family fortune and set up its political dynasty. In 2004 a multibillion dollar legal action for damages was brought in Germany against the Bush family by two former slave laborers at Auschwitz

As far as Bush one is concerned he; invaded Panama, (in part to shed his image as a wimp – the United Nations Security Council passed a resolution condemning the invasion), and, while his economy ranks fourth in least number of jobs created behind Herbert Hoover, Gerald Ford and George W. Bush, he added $1,042,000,000,000 to the U.S. debt, he also aided the Guatemala military’s genocide of its Mayan population and appointed Clarence Thomas to The Supreme Court.

So let us all place our faith and trust in this family and hope and pray for their continued long life, success and good health. I ask you: after all they have done for us – what family deserves our sincere good wishes more than the Bush family?
