Subject: RE: BS: Video of Bush's Nazi roots
I've heard bits of this from other, much more reliable sources. Apparently, the Bush family was tied up in this sort of thing prior to WWII. But they were not the only ones. Lots of people pulled out quickly when they realized what was really going on.

I hazard to guess that, if we could be hanged for some of the things our ancestors may have done, then we'd probably all be in deep doo-doo.

Cooler heads have noted Prescott Bush's dealings with Hitler's Germany, but have not seen fit to make an issue of it as far as George W. Bush is concerned, other than to just make note it. My personal opinion is that Bush has a lot of fascist ideas and tends to act a lot like a fascist, and he gets a lot of this from his cronies and advisors (like Karl Rove). I doubt that he comes by this through any kind of philosophical thought process. But the idea that he, and/or his advisors are part of some neo-Nazi conspiracy strikes me as doubtful in the extreme.

Not impossible. But extremely unlikely.
