I really think this is Clinton's but then again after 8 years of Obama.. that might kill the democrats this time round. I can't for the life of me belive Hillary Clinton is not in prison. She's as bent as a 5 bob note, she's sniffed more white powder than Tony Montana and eaten more rug than Bill
I feel sorry for the Americans as both Bush and the Clintons have fairly dubious pasts, especially in their business dealings. Having said that look at Blair, Robert Maxwell, Portillo, etc hardly shining examples to become representatives of the people. I think Billy Connolly summed it up very well when he said " Anyone who puts themselves forward for election should immediately be disbarred from doing, so on the grounds that they are clearly unsuitable for office"
reminds me of the Mail and its editor, Paul Dacre, and all those smear stories of Ed Milliband's dad being some sort of Commie, Jew 5th columnist. Ed Milliband's dad fought in the RN for this country, even though he didn't have to. Paul dacre's dad was a consciencious objector in WWII.
Billy Connolly lost any credibility he had with scousers when he made sick jokes about Liverpool man Ken Bigley before and after he was murdered(beheaded)in Iraq GB, but i get your sentiment rather than his.
They are all dirty, you can't play the game if you are not dirty, no one will trust you. The only reason they can all deal with each other is because they are all dirty.
I don't know much about Lessig, but I do know honest men do not become the president of the United states. The last one with integrity was killed by his own government. Here is some little known history. Bush Snr and a few associates put an ad in the LA times looking for the most dirty down moral lacking ethically void scumbag to apply. They knew that only the worst type of human being would actually apply given the requirements. The man they picked from applicants.. Richard Nixon. This in its self is proof that presidents are chosen. This was years and years before Nixon became a "somebody" They made him that somebody and put him in the whitehouse, Nixon was owned by Bush snr and his associates Also even Lessig knows the difference between politics and realpolitik.
Must have been around the time young George Dubya was dodging going to Vietnam due Daddy Bush getting him a cushy number in the Home state of Texas air defence.
Lessig has raised a million dollars through fundraising, from citizens not corporations. He plans to run, and if he wins, will immediately adbicate and pick a new President, one who is not tainted by political corruption as he will not have made campaign promises to corporations based on cash donations. go to www.wolf-pac.com to find out more about the drive to eliminate money from US politics.
I think I will back this guy so, like I have a vote . I had a quick look online, didn't know much about him. Alas it is down to the media mate. Just as it is in the UK as the average voter is utterly ignorant of politics and they are blinkered by ideology and partisan bickering just like sports fans actually. I backed Ron Paul, he was doing great too, even though I kinda despise modern libertarians, but the media made him disappear faster than a goose fart in a strong breeze
Really? bush snr was a naval aviator in WWII in the pacific.He had to be at least 20 years junior of Nixon. Did Bush snr come straight out of the navy and head the CIA? Nixon was Eisenhower's running mate in the 50's, wasn't he? Not doubting your story, but are you sure it's Nixon and Bush snr? Something there doesn't add up.
Bush snr was 40 years old in the 60s mate he was born in 1924. Bush snr was starting oil development companies in the 50s.. I am not sure who you are talking about here WWI was the 40s lad, Nixon was born 1913. 11 years before I fail to see how that particular detail is even relevant, sure you are not just trolling me as usual? Now you explain to me how the powerful member of the Bush family at 40 years of age, with his family's also powerful associates (Known as the Robber Barons) could not recruit Nixon even though this ad is not disputed nor the fact that Nixon was the accpeted individual, how can it not be true because he is 11 years older than Bush snr? And given his record in the oval office, the ad description did him justice but he was just a patsy anyways. If you want a dope to do your bidding, a corrupt unethical moralless ambitious cretin like Nixon is perfect. That's why they ran the ad While George snr was serving in the 40s in the pacific, Daddy Prescott Bush) was supporting and investing in the Nazis in Europe.
Impartial BBC at it again, fake documentaries and this sort of thing are the norm for the Ministry of Truth Jeremy Corbyn's team send complaint to BBC over its 'hatchet job' Panorama programme http://www.independent.co.uk/news/u...-hatchet-job-panorama-programme-10495955.html
Nixon was Vice President in 1953. Bush snr didn't start his own oil business until 1951 and didn't get into politics himself until 1964. Another horse **** conspiracy theory imo.
Tobes in your haste to be wrong you are copying and pasting my posts in other threads. Put it in the other threat so i can reply I'll do it, you're welcome
not trolling you, calm the **** down. Just bemused by the details. No fan of the Bushes, thet're everything you say they are. But in the 60's nixon was already an established political figure who'd lost the 1960 election to kennedy, and also lost the election for california governer. when was this ad? I was assuming, perhaps wrongly, you were saying it was when nixon was starting off. In the 50's he was already a household name with his witchhunt commitees. He was hardly pliable material by the 60's.
I like you BBF, but I cannot take anything you say seriously whilst you have that in your signature. Its ignorant and ill informed, which is weird, because most of your posts aren't.
Nope. I made an error, he was recruited in the 40s (I said 60s which is inaccurate) and installed as president in the 60s. He served as POTUS from 69 onwards. Nixon wrote in his own biography that he was recruited in 46 by Prescott Bush and business buddies and the Republican party. hardly theory Tobes is it So other than the year of recruitment, 46, whent he war was over, and Bush snr was not serving, it still all adds up.
