The only thing lower than war profiteering is aiding the enemy in a time of war, like the Bush Crime Family’s patriarch did in World War Two. Prescott Bush survived having his company seized by FDR under the Trading with the Enemy Act, and was elected to the Senate only ten years later. What a country!
Now his daughter-in-law has sunk even lower. Barbara Bush, god bless her little heart, has found a way for her family to profit off Katrina:
Former first lady Barbara Bush donated an undisclosed amount of money to the Bush-Clinton Katrina Fund with specific instructions that the money be spent with an educational software company owned by her son Neil.
Since then, the Ignite Learning program has been given to eight area schools that took in substantial numbers of Hurricane Katrina evacuees.
“Mrs. Bush wanted to do something specifically for education and specifically for the thousands of students flooding into the Houston schools,” said Jean Becker, former President Bush’s chief of staff. “She knew that HISD was using this software program, and she’s very excited about this program, so she wanted to make it possible for them to expand the use of this program.”
The former first lady plans to visit a Houston Independent School District campus using the Ignite program today to call on local business leaders to support schools and education….
…Last year, Neil Bush reportedly toured former Soviet Union countries promoting Ignite with Russian tycoon Boris Berezovsky.
According to the Times of London, Berezovsky, a former Kremlin insider now living in Britain, is wanted on criminal charges in Moscow accusing him of seeking to stage a coup against President Vladimir Putin.
Isn’t that just precious? Doesn’t it warm the cockles of your heart?
The whole family is rotten from the top all the way down. They are thieves of the worst sort. And they have absolutely no decency. Dubya is just the worst of the lot.
