ok but you can't blame someone on his grandad past.. bush jr wasn't born when his grandad made money with the nazis.
but you should blame him for being a war criminal, his love for torture & use of terror fear for being re-elected & making the world less safe...

the only reason he is ahead right now is because the only people that are recorded in them are people who voted last year - and this year there will be a lot more new voters, and they will most likely be voting against bush

ah... bias, today's NEWS. Society eats it up like there's no tomorrow.
just because two people shit in the same toilet, doesn't mean they share the same views.
I mean, i could prolly be somehow linked to charles manson in some fucked-up way, that means absolutely NOTHING

you can't be blamed for the past I agree on that, but it does reveal that stupidity (or making the wrong choices) has been in the family for a long long time.

in a capitalist society, investment for huge income isn't viewed as a 'stupid' choice.

this is addressed in the article. you ought to have read the whole thing.
Loftus stressed that what Prescott Bush was involved in was just what many other American and British businessmen were doing at the time.
"You can't blame Bush for what his grandfather did any more than you can blame Jack Kennedy for what his father did - bought Nazi stocks - but what is important is the cover-up, how it could have gone on so successfully for half a century, and does that have implications for us today?" he said.

here is why (taken from the article)
More than 60 years after Prescott Bush came briefly under scrutiny at the time of a faraway war, his grandson is facing a different kind of scrutiny but one underpinned by the same perception that, for some people, war can be a profitable business.
Prescott Bush has set a family precedence for war profiteering.
anyway i thought it was an interesting article because of the old 'history repeats itself' philosophy. it is repeating itself right now and thats why i posted the link
!!

on a sidenote, wasn't it Sprite or Fanta originally made specifically to be distributed in Nazi Germany?
so one one side The Coca Cola Company was saying "Yay! Go our boys!" to the US soldiers and at the same time seeing to it that those evil Nazi's didn't get thirsty (and making a fair buck from it). and who said capitalism can't be humane?

it was fanta i read germans nazis loved cocacola & drank a lot i heard, but when the us/brits bombed them, the nazis decided not to buy coke anymore & made their own --> fanta, same taste as cocacola(sounds german?)
when the us won the war, coca bought the fanta name & put orange juice instead...
