==================== Lil' Mikey, I already schooled you on this fraudulent piece of garbage over in Euwetopia, but for the benefit of those here in PF, let me do so one more time: None of what you wrote in the article from "Moonbats Who Hate Bush, But Don't Know Why" is truthful. Prescott Bush was one of seven directors of Union Banking Corp, a New York investment bank owned by a bank controlled by the Thyssen family, according to National Archives documents that were declassified back in 2003, and reviewed by The Associated Press. Union Banking Corporation was owned by a Dutch bank, "Bank voor Handel Ven Scheepvaardt N.V.", which was "closely affiliated" with the German conglomerate United Steel Works, according to an Oct. 5, 1942, report from the federal Office of Alien Property Custodian. The Dutch bank and the steel firm were part of the business and financial empire of Thyssen and his brother, Heinrich Thyssen-Bornemisza. The 4,000 Union Banking shares owned by the Dutch bank were registered in the names of the seven U.S. directors. E. Roland Harriman, the bank chairman and brother of former New York Gov. W. Averell Harriman held 3,991 shares. Prescott Bush had one share. Fritz Thyssen was an early financial supporter of Hitler, whose Nazi party Thyssen believed was preferable to communism. The documents do not show any evidence that Prescott Bush directly aided that effort. His position with Union Banking never was a political nor a controlling position. Fritz Thyssen broke with the Nazis in 1938 over their persecution of Catholics and Jews, and fled to Switzerland. He later was arrested and spent 1941 to 1945 in a Nazi prison. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,100474,00.html ========== Now Lil' Mikey, if you were a reputable individual with any credibility whatsoever, you would apologize for posting an article that is factually untruthful, and filled with prevaricate, misleading innuendo and lies, all for the purpose of smearing President Bush. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ Thanks for being part of "PoliticalForum" at Google Groups.
