KNOW YOUR HISTORY - NOVEMBER 12th
1984 -- A Plowshares protest targets a Minuteman II nuclear-missile silo in Knob Noster, Missouri. After using a jackhammer & air-compressor to damage the silo lid, protesters Carl & Paul Kabat, Larry Cloud Morgan & Helen Woodson offer a Eucharist, then leave behind a Biblical indictment of the U.S. government: "They shall beat their swords into plowshares & their spears into pruning hooks. Nation shall not lift up sword against nation. Neither shall they learn war anymore. (Isaiah 2:4, 4-5)" Arrested an hour after the action, authorities hold the four on preventive detention & deny bond. In March 1985, they are convicted of conspiracy, destruction of government property, & intent to damage the national defense. Their prison sentences, ranging from eight to 18 years, are the most severe to date of any Plowshares member. All but Woodson appeal their cases. The appeals will lose in the spring of 1986. In July 1992, removal of the Minuteman IIs from their silos began, with the last missile removed in May 1995. The first silo implosion in the United States, took place Dec. 8, 1993 in accordance with the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty signed by former U.S. President George Bush & former Russian President Mikhail Gorbachev July 31, 1991.

In a recent column about the flap over the TV miniseries, The Reagans, Right-leaning columnist & movie critic, Michael Medved suggests, "Why not consider a major, multicharacter generational saga about the utterly amazing Bush family, beginning with the current president's much maligned but altogether extraordinary grandfather, Sen. Prescott Bush?"

A Multigenerational Bush Family Saga? Absolutely!!
... We'd love to see Prescott getting rich by trading with the Nazis, exploiting slave labor at Auschwitz, having his companies' assets seized for "trading with the enemy", helping Nazis resettle overseas, and hiding his activities from the FBI and Connecticut voters while launching a political dynasty... Segue to GHWB and whatever ugly CIA business he did - before, during, and after his appointment as CIA director... Segue to GWB at Skull & Bones, 3 arrests in college, dodging Vietnam, going AWOL from the National Guard, drunk as a skunk until 40, one business failure after another... Throw in other family crooks like Neil (Silverado) and Marvin... "The Bushes" would make "The Sopranos" look like "The Sound of Music"!
"Fiction?" you may say. Read on. Today's Blog suggests the figurehead of the current shrub gang comes from a long line of unscrupulous robber barons. Rhino sez, "We gotta get a new president."
To begin with, if you missed the story about Prescott Bush having robbed the grave & stolen the skull of Apache leader Geronimo, check this out.
Bush family involved in secret society holding Geronimo's skull
The Skull and Bones Society allegedly robbed grave
by: Brenda Norrell , Indian Country Today, September 24, 2003
MOUNT GRAHAM, Ariz. - The Skull and Bones Society admitted to Apache leaders 17 years ago that they had a skull they call "Geronimo's" in their secret cult museum in New Haven, Conn. Still, his remains have not been returned. Raleigh Thompson, former San Carlos Apache tribal councilman for 16 years, said it is time to bring Geronimo home to be buried in the mountains that he loved... Thompson said he was present in New York when the Skull and Bones Society admitted that it held Geronimo's remains in 1986. "They dug up Geronimo's body in 1918. His body is at the Skull and Bones Museum. Grandfather Prescott Bush dug it up," Thompson said. The grave robbing was exposed when Apache leaders received a photo and information in the 1980s. The informant, fearing for his life and never identified, provided Apache leaders with a photo of the cult museum's display of Geronimo's remains in a glass cage. The informant also provided a copy of a Skull and Bones Society log book, in which the 1918 grave robbery was recorded.

Explosive! Documents Reveal Prescott Bush's Nazi Business Continued Until 1951. The Bush Family Dynasty Is Based On Trading With Enemies - And REAL Treason
SOURCE - Democrats.com, 11/10/03
Investigative reporter John Buchanan broke 60 years of silence recently when he uncovered documents showing Prescott Bush's business was seized by Congress in 1942 for trading with the enemy. Now Buchanan has gone even further, documenting Prescott's role in many more Nazi-related businesses as late as 1951. "[Democrats.com co-founder Bob] Fertik and others, including former Justice Department Nazi war crimes prosecutor John Loftus... believe Prescott Bush and the Harrimans should have been tried for treason. Now, say Fertik and Loftus, there should be a Congressional investigation into the Bush family's Nazi past and its concealment from the American people for 60 years. 'The American people have a right to know, in detail, about this hidden chapter of our history,' says Loftus, author of The Secret War Against the Jews. 'That's the only way we can understand it and deal with it.'"
