Bobert: I read Don's post. He has a right to his opinion, and a right to write it. What else can I say?

As to the Nazi connection with the Bush family, some people will believe the worst of anybody, and proof doesn't necessarily have to be present. As the article posted by Teribus explains, a lot of well-known American businesses probably provided funds that helped the Nazi party when it began. It is my recollection, though, that the Nazi Party did not become the hated party that it became until later in the 1930s, after the invasion of Poland. Lindburg, for example, gave Hitler strong support, as did John F. Kennedy's father prior to 1939. Kennedy at the time was Ambassador to Great Britain and urged Roosevelt not to side against Hitler.

Yet I don't see any postings by Don, Bobert, or anyone else on the Mudcat accusing Kennedy or Lindburg of being Nazis.
