The Bushy Knoll
The following is a partial list of
deaths of persons connected to the family of current President George W. Bush
and his father, George Herbert Walker Bush.
Bertha
Champagne
Household
servant for Marvin Bush, brother of the President, was found crushed to death
by her own vehicle in a driveway in front of the Bush family home in the
Alexandria section of Fairfax County on September 29, 2003. The vehicle was
supposedly left in gear. No explanations have been offered as to why the
vehicle did not move until Champagne was in a position to be crushed. There
is a rumor that Champagne may have had incriminating knowledge of connections
between the 9-11 hijackings and Marvin Bush's companies.
Danny Casolaro
He was working on a book that tied together the scandals surrounding the
presidency of George H. W. Bush, the Mena airport drug running operation, and
Arkansas Development Finance Authority. He told his friends he was going to
"bring back" the head of the Octopus. Instead, his body was found
in a hotel in Martinsburg, West Virginia, on August 10, 1991, with slit
wrists.
Salem bin
Laden
In 1979 Bush business Arbusto Energy obtained financing from James Bath, a
close family friend. Bath had extensive ties to BCCI and the bin Laden
family. Bath was the sole U.S. business representative for Salem bin Laden,
the brother of Osama bin Laden. It is well known in certain circles that the “ARBUSTO
OIL” OR “ARBUSTO ENERGY” money came straight from Salem bin Laden, although
Bush denies it. Salem bin Laden died when for no apparent reason, he flew his
airplane into power lines where it became entangled, and fell 150 feet to the
ground. "He was a very experienced pilot. He was a good pilot. We just
can't understand why he decided to go right instead of left," recalled
airstrip owner Earl May field.
John O'Neill
He was Director of Counterterrorism at the New York offices of the F.B.I.
until he resigned in August 2001. One of the world's top experts on Osama bin
Laden and Al Qaeda, he grew to believe that "all the answers"
regarding what they needed to destroy Al Qaeda lay in Saudi Arabia. However,
starting in January 2001, Bush blocked all efforts by Mr. O'Neill to
investigate Saudi ties to bin Laden. In the summer of 2001 O'Neill declared
that the main obstacles to his investigation were U.S. oil interests. In late
August, a frustrated O'Neill quit the FBI and took a position as head of
security for the World Trade Center. On O'Neill's second day of work on the
34th floor, the WTC is hit by the first plane. O'Neill makes it out of the
building safely, calls his son to say he is OK,. then goes into the other
tower to help guide those still inside to safety. Minutes later, O'Neill,
along with hundreds of others, is dead, killed by the terrorist the Bush
administration refused to allow him to pursue to the best of his ability.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy
An internal FBI memo reported that on November 22 a reputed businessman named
George H. W. Bush reported hearsay that a certain Young Republican had been
talking of killing the President when he came to Houston. According to a 1988
story in The Nation, J. Edgar Hoover said in a memo that Mr. George Bush of
the CIA had been briefed on November 23rd, 1963 about the reaction of
anti-Castro Cuban exiles in Miami to the assassination of President Kennedy.
George H. W. Bush has denied this, although he was in Texas and cannot
account for his whereabouts at the time.
Paul Wellstone
Senator Wellstone, his wife Sheila, daughter Marcia, three of his staff and both
pilots were killed when his small plane went down in Evelyth, Minnesota, on
October 27, 2002. He was a vocal opponent of the Bush administration and the
only real progressive in the Senate.
Barbara Olson - Author of "Hell to Pay" - a
book critical of Hillary Clinton, killed in the Pentagon bombing. Her
husband, Ted Olson, is Soliticor General in the Bush II Administration.
Dr. David Kelly
Dr Kelly was called to give evidence before the foreign affairs select
committee of the British Parliament, and was the acknowledged source of the
BBC for revealing that the Bush-Blair premise for the invasion of Iraq,
namely the Weapons of Mass Destruction scenario, was a fraud. Kelly was
founded dead of an "apparent suicide", but under suspicious circumstances,
July 18, 2003, at Harrowdown Hill, 45 minutes from his home.
Colin McMillan
President George W. Bush's nominee to be civilian head of the Navy,
"committed suicide" at his southern New Mexico ranch July 25, 2003.
Steve Kangas
His web site, Liberalism Resurgent, was meticulously researched and presented
such a problem to Richard Scaife, that he hired a private detective to look
into Kangas' past. Steve Kangas was found in a 39th-floor bathroom outside of
Scaife's offices at One Oxford Centre, in Pittsburgh, an apparent suicide.
Mr. Kangas, a very prolific writer, left no note. He had brought a
fully-packed suitcase of clothes with him to Pittsburgh. He bought a burglar
alarm shortly before he left for Pittsburgh. Why did he need a burglar alarm
if he was going to commit suicide? An avowed advocate of gun control, he
nevertheless bought a gun. What was he afraid of? Why did he go to
Pittsburgh? After his death, his computer was sold for $150 and its hard
drive wiped clean. Everything in his apartment was thrown away. Scaife is
heavily connected to Bush I.
Mark Lombardi
He was an accomplished conceptual artist who, while chatting on the phone
with a banker friend about the Bush savings and loan scandal, started
doodling a diagram and was inspired to create a complex series of drawings
and sketches that charted the details of the scandal. According to the New York
Times, "He was soon charting the complex matrices of personal and
professional relationships, conflict of interest, malfeasance and fraud
uncovered by investigations into the major financial and political scandals
of the day; to keep facts and sources straight, he created a handwritten
database that now includes around 12,000 3-by-5-inch cards." On the
evening of March 22, 2000, Mark Lombardi was found hanging in his loft.
James Hatfield
Mr. Hatfield was the author of Fortunate Son, an unauthorized biography of
George W. Bush. The book detailed Bush's cocaine use and cover up of a
cocaine arrest. He was found dead, in a motel room.
Darlene Novinger
Former FBI operative, January 23rd, 2003. Novinger was known to hold
sensitive information on the Clinton and Bush I administration's drug
operations. Her husband murdered March 1987 when she went public with initial
reports. Her father died July 8, 1993 four hours after Darlene was a guest on
the Tom Valentine show. Suffered retaliation after reporting discussions by
government protected drug smuggler who described contacts with Vice President
George Bush and his son, Jeb Bush.
Bob Stevens
Mr. Stevens died of a mysterious case of anthrax. He worked as a photo editor
for American Media, who owns the National Enquirer. The Bush family suffered
enormous embarrassment at the hands of the Enquirer when they published a
photo of daughter Jenna Bush, obviously intoxicated, cigarette in hand,
cavorting on the floor with another drunken female.
Don C. Wiley
Dr. Wiley disappeared November 15, 2001 in Memphis, Tennessee. He was
attending a two-day annual meeting of the scientific advisory board of St.
Jude Children's Research Hospital. His work on deadly diseases such as ebola
and HIV raised fears of a terrorist kidnapping. Four hours later, his rental
car was found on a bridge, raising the question of suicide, which his family
vehemently refuted. Dr. Wiley was found a month later in the Mississipi
River.
Thomas Morris Jr.
Mr. Morris was a postal worker who died October 21, 2001, of inhalation
anthrax.
Joseph Curseen
Mr. Curseen died October 22, 2001, of inhalation anthrax. It has been
reported that the anthrax infections since September 11 are of the same
strain that was kept in a military facility.
Kathy T. Nguyen
Ms. Nguyen died on October 31, 2001, of inhalation anthrax.
Katherine Smith
She had been implicated in February in a phony documents scheme said to be
related to the September 11 hijackers. One day before she was due in court,
she was incinerated in her car after having hit a utility pole. An
investigation revealed that the crash was minor and was not the cause of the
fire that burned Smith beyond recognition.
Governor Mel Carnahan
In the midst of a heated race for the Senate against John Ashcroft, the
Governor died in a plane crash on October 16, 2000. His death affected
Democrats in two ways - it would hurt their chances of seizing control of the
US Senate, and it would strongly impact the Presidential race between Al Gore
and George W. Bush.
Lori Klausutis
Lori Klausutis, age 28, was found dead behind a desk in the offices of US
Representative Joe Scarborough of Florida, a Republican, on July 20, 2001.
Death was apparently due to a blow on the head. Claims that a heart condition
precipitated an accidental fall are tenuous at best; Lori was a marathon
runner, and one would think that a heart condition would already have become
apparent. At the time of her death, she was treasurer of her chapter of the
Florida Federation of Young Republicans. Tim Klausitus, Lori's husband, worked
on targeting technology for missiles. Rep. Scarborough sat on both the
Military Construction and the Research and Development Subcommittees.
Scarborough resigned from Congress and now hosts a Cable TV show on MSNBC.
Dan Rocco
He died on April 1, 2002, in a plane crash in Gainesville, Georgia. He was an
executive vice president at ChoicePoint, the firm that gained infamy with
their faulty "felons" list supplied to Katherine Harris during the
2000 election in Florida. As a result of this list, thousands of voters
(mostly African-American voters) were wrongly identified as felons and purged
from the rolls.
Florence Martin
Accountant subcontractor for the CIA related to the Barry Seal Mena Airport
drug smuggling case. Dead of three gunshot wounds.
Paul Wilcher
Attorney investigating corruption at Mena Airport with Casolaro and the 1980
"October Surprise" was found dead on a toilet June 22, 1993 in his
Washington DC Apartment. Had delivered report to Janet Reno 3 weeks before
his death.
Olof Palme
He was the prime minister of Sweden, assassinated in 1986. Oliver North had
met with Mr. Palme to discuss the possibility of obtaining false end-user
certificates for the plethora of weapons that were being purchased, so that
they would seem to have come from a country other than the U.S. Mr. Palme
refused to participate, after the plan was presented to him. He was dead
within weeks.
William Casey
William Casey was CIA Director during the Reagan/Bush Administration. He died
2 days before he was to testify about his and others' involvement in the
Iran/Contra scandal.
John Shaheen
John Shaheen was a Republican businessman and best friend of William J.
Casey, head of the Reagan/Bush campaign, who helped set up arms negotiations
with the Iranians.
Cyrus Hashemi
He was an Iranian banker who worked with John Shaheen, a Republican
businessman and best friend of William J. Casey, head of the Reagan/Bush
campaign. According to Hashemi's brother, Jamshid Hashemi, he arranged a
meeting between William Casey and a radical Iranian mullah in July of 1980
that eventually derailed Carter's hostage negotiations and delayed the
release of the 52 American hostages until January of 1981. Hashemi died
suddenly in July of 1986 of what was later diagnosed as leukemia. His brother
and his lawyer, William Wachtel, remain convinced that Cyrus was murdered.
Richard Babayan, an Iranian in prison for securities fraud, claims that
Hashemi's death was ordered by high-ranking officials.
Senator Henry
John Heinz III
He chaired the three-man presidential review board that probed the
Iran-contra affair. He died in a plane crash in April 1991.
Amaro da Costa
Then Defense Minister of Portugal, he died in a plane crash in Lisbon in
1980. He was planning to disclose that he had discovered documents that showed
Portugese officers were helping to traffic arms to Iran.
Sa Carneiro
Former Prime Minister of Portugal and a very popular leader, he died in the
same plane crash that killed Amaro da Costa.
Edmond J. Safra
Banker Edmond J. Safra died mysteriously when a fire swept his Monaco
penthouse apartment. His banks had been used for laundering money by the
Iran/Contra conspirators.
Charles M. McKee and Matthew Gannon
Charles M. McKee, ostensibly a military attache for the CIA in Beirut,
Matthew Gannon, CIA Deputy Station Chief in Beirut, and three others were on
board Pan Am Flight 103, which exploded over Lockerbie, Scotland. They were
part of a counterterrorist team in Beirut investigating the possible rescue
of 9 American hostages in Lebanon. The McKee team uncovered evidence that a
rogue CIA unit called COREA, based in Wiesbaden, was doing business with a
man called Monzer Al-Kassar, a Syrian arms dealer and drug trafficker.
Al-Kassar was part of the covert network run by U.S. Lieut. Colonel Oliver
North. Outraged that the COREA unit in Wiesbaden was doing business with a
Syrian who had close terrorist connections and might endanger their chances
of rescuing the hostages, the McKee team decided to fly back to Virginia
unannounced and expose the COREA unit's secret deal with al-Kassar. They
never got there. "For three years, I've had a feeling that if Chuck
hadn't been on that plane, it wouldn't have been bombed," said
Beulah McKee, 75, Charles McKee's mother, to Time Magazine. Four months after
her son was killed for his efforts to expose the CIA, Mrs. McKee received a
sympathy letter from George H. W. Bush. Mrs. McKee has never been satisfied
with the government's version of events.
Don Aronow
He was a close friend of George H. W. Bush. According to the book
"George Bush, the Unauthorized Biography," there is compelling
evidence to conclude that Aronow was a drug smuggler and suspected drug-money
launderer. He was murdered by professional killers on February 3, 1987. In
the days before his death, he made many personal calls to George H. W. Bush.
Tommy Teagle, a man interviewed by author Thomas Burdick, was afraid of being
murdered by Bush because he had knowledge that Aronow and Jeb Bush had been
partners in cocaine trafficking.
Frank Nugan and Michael Hand
They were partners in the Nugan Hand Bank, a front for CIA drug money, in
Sydney, Australia. Michael Hand was a Green Beret and an Army Colonel
assigned to the CIA. Hand was in frequent contact with George Bush after his
election to Vice President, according to CIA operative Trent Parker. Frank
Nugan was found in his car on a remote road outside Sydney. There were no
fingerprints on the gun. Michael Hand disappeared shortly afterwards, and has
not been seen since.
Amiram Nir
He was a former Israeli agent who was in Jerusalem with George Bush during
Iran Contra. He went under the assumed name of Pat Weber. Nir was scheduled
to testify to the Senate subcommittee and it was feared he would reveal the
truth. He perished when his aircraft was shot down with missiles from the
helicopter of a man called Gene Tatum, 25-year CIA deep cover agent.
Senator John Tower
He was appointed by the Reagan/Bush Administration to chair the bipartisan
committee to investigate the Iran/Contra scandals. He directed the Tower
Report and had all the Iran Contra documents that told the real story. He was
killed in an airplane crash later in Georgia in 1991. Also killed was his
daughter, Marian.
Mohammed Zia al-huk
Dictator of Pakistan, and knew all about Iran/Contra, the training, funding,
and arming of narco-terrorists like Osama bin Laden. In August 1988, the same
day George Bush got the Republican nomination, his plane crashed into the
ground with all engines running. The Pakistanis kept the bodies around (in
violation of Islamic custom) for weeks, awaiting US experts. They showed up
three weeks later and never checked the bodies.
Barry Seal
He was supposedly murdered by Medellin cartel members, but a 6-month
investigation by Sam Dalton, attorney for three of the accused murderers,
into Mr. Seal's life and death uncovered some interesting points. The
accused's cartel connections were well known, but not their association with
Oliver North's enterprise. Mr. Seal was a drug smuggler, up to his armpits in
smuggling cocaine for the CIA. During the penalty phase of the Columbians'
trial, testimony by one government witness on the activities of Mr. Seal was
so damaging to the government that 2 of the jurors wanted to change their
verdict to "not guilty". The personal telephone number of George H.
W. Bush was found in the trunk of Mr. Seal's car.
William Colby
This former CIA director disappeared in an apparent boating accident, and a
body was later discovered (minus the life jacket Colby's friends insisted he
always wore while boating) and buried promptly. John DeCamp, a lawyer from
Lincoln, Nebraska, and Colby's close friend and confidant, said Colby's death
was not an accident. He stated that Colby was prepared to disclose that
missing P.O.W.'s were working for a dope smuggling operation orchestrated by
General Colin Powell, Pentagon official Richard Armitage, and George H. W.
Bush.
Mario Ruiz Massieu
An apparent suicide, Massieu was facing charges that he laundered money for
the cocaine cartels. A Houston, Texas jury had found that $8 million in his
bank accounts was paid to him by cocaine cartels.
Kevin
Ives and Don Henry
Known as
"The boys on the track" case. Reports say the boys may have
stumbled upon the Mena Arkansas Airport Drug operation. This controversial
case where initial report of death was due to falling asleep on railroad
track. Later reports claim the two had been slain before being placed on the
tracks. Many people linked to the case died (see below) before their
testimony could come before a Grand Jury.
THE FOLLOWING SIX PERSONS HAD INFORMATION ON THE IVES/HENRY CASE:
KEITH CONEY - Died when his motorcycle slammed into the back of a truck in
July, 1988.
KEITH McMASKLE - Died, stabbed 113 times, November 1988.
GREGORY COLLINS - Died from a gunshot wound, January 1989.
JEFF RHODES - He was shot, mutilated and found burned in a trash dump in
April 1989.
JAMES MILAN. Found decapitated-Coroner ruled death due to natural causes.
JORDAN KETTLESON - Was found shot to death in the front seat of his pickup
truck in June 1990.
RICHARD WINTERS - Winters was a suspect in the Ives/Henry deaths. Was killed
in set-up robbery in July 1989.
Lou Russell
Lou Russell worked as a private detective for an agency that was helping
George H.W. Bush, then chairman of the RNC, prepare for a press conference.
It is a rumor that Lou Russell was the fabled "sixth burglar" of
Watergate, the one who got away. On May 16, 1973, "Deep Throat"
warned Bob Woodward that "Everyone's life is in danger." and that
"electronic surveillance is going on and we had better watch it.".
On May 18, Lou Russell suffered a massive heart attack that put him in
Adventist Hospital, where he recovered somewhat and stayed until June 20.
Russell told his daughter that he believed he had been poisoned. On July 2,
two weeks after his release from the hospital, he had another "heart
attack" and died.
John Leon
He was a friend and associate of Lou Russell. He was collecting statements
about Watergate, and was to be the focus of a press conference. Leon suffered
a "heart attack" and died, on the day before the conference was to
be held.
Hale Boggs, Nick Begich and Don Jonz
Boggs sat on the Warren Commission, which concluded that President Kennedy
was slain by a lone assassin. Later, in 1971 and '72, Boggs said that the
Warren Report was false and that J. Edgar Hoover's FBI not only helped cover
up the JFK murder but blackmailed Congress with massive wire-tapping and
spying. He named Warren Commission staff member Arlen Specter as a major
cover-up artist. Congressman Boggs' plane disappeared on a flight to Alaska
in 1972. The press, the military, and the CIA publicly proclaimed the plane
could not be located. Investigators later said that was a lie, that the plane
had been found. On the plane were Nick Begich, a very popular Democratic
Congressman, and Don Jonz, an aide to Mr. Boggs. All were killed.
George de
Mohrenschildt
A rich Russian oilman, he was described with his wife as being the two people
friendliest to Lee Harvey Oswald at the time of the assassination of John F.
Kennedy. De Mohrenschildt was the man who moved Oswald to Dallas. In the late
1970's, shortly before the first meeting of the House Select Committee on
Assassinations, de Mohrenschildt started seeing a new doctor in town. He
quickly became mentally unstable, at which time his wife convinced him to
stop seeing the doctor. They moved away and left a false forwarding address.
On the same day that the Committee tried to contact him about testifying, he
was found dead of a gunshot wound. In his personal address book was the entry
George H.W.Bush, and Zapata Petroleum Midland (the oil company owned by
George H.W. Bush).
Dorothy Hunt
In December 1972, while George H. W. Bush was at the Republican National
Convention, a United Airlines flight carrying Mrs. Dorothy Hunt, CIA
operative and wife of E. Howard Hunt, (CIA operative and suspect in the
Kennedy assassination) crashed. Believed to be carrying $25,000 in "hush
money", she died in this crash.
Jack Delaney and Ted White
These young men were killed when pilot George H. W. Bush abandoned his plane
when it was hit by enemy fire. An eyewitness to the event tells us otherwise:
Chester Mierzejewski, who was the turret gunner in another plane, had an
unobstructed view. He states that he saw a "puff of smoke" come
from Bush's plane and quickly dissipate. He states that the plane was never
on fire and that Bush never attempted a water landing, which was standard
procedure, and which would have given Mr. Delaney and Mr. White a chance.
Gary Caradori
He was investigating Lawrence E. King, Jr., a very influential black
Republican who was also a friend of George H.W. Bush. King was director of
the Franklin Community Credit Union in Omaha, Nebraska, and was suspected of
embezzling $40 million. The Nebraska Senate questioned child
prostitutes, who accused King of running a child prostitution ring.
One of these
children said that she saw George H.W. Bush at one of King's parties. On July
11, 1990, Gary Caradori was killed along with his 6-year old son in the crash
of his small plane, after a mid-air explosion, the cause of which was never
discovered. He had told friends repeatedly in the weeks before his death that
he was afraid his plane would be sabotaged.
Orlando Letelier
He was torn to bits by a car bomb on the streets of Washington DC just before
he was to testify against the Chilean dictator Pinochet. After the bombing,
CIA Director George H. W. Bush told the FBI that there had been no Chilean
involvement whatsoever. In 1991 the post-Pinochet Chilean Supreme Court asked
George H. W. Bush if he would submit to questioning. Bush refused.
Ronni Moffit
She was Letelier's assistant. She and her husband were riding in the car with
Letelier when the bomb exploded. Mr. Moffit survived. Ronni didn't.
J. Clifford
Baxter
Found dead in his car, shot in the head. Mr. Baxter was vice chairman of
Enron Corp. when he resigned in May 2001. Enron was the largest campaign
contributor for George W. Bush.
Charles Dana Rice
He was the senior vice president and treasurer of El Paso Corp., an energy
corporation swept up in the recent energy scandal. Two months after the
"suicide" of Enron executive Clifford Baxter, in the midst of
questions about the accounting practices of El Paso Corp., Charles Rice was
found dead of a gunshot wound to the head.
James Daniel
Watkins
His body was found on December 1, 2001 in the Pike National Forest in
Colorado, a gunshot wound to the head. Mr. Watkins was a consultant for
Arthur Andersen, the accounting firm for Enron. He disappeared on November 13
after he left work. He was described as a devoted family man who always
called home if he were going to be late.
Jake Horton
He was the senior vice-president of Gulf Power, a subsidiary of Southern
Company, a cohort of Enron in the energy industry, and a major contributor to
the Bush agenda. According to reporter Gregory Palast, Horton knew of the company's appalling
accounting practices, and "... had no doubt about its illegal
campaign contributions to Florida politicans - he'd made the payments
himself. In April of 1989 Horton decided to come clean with state
officials, and reserved the company jet to go confront company officials. Ten
minutes after takeoff the jet exploded.
Eleven million
people,
Jews and other ethnic and social minorities, were murdered by the Nazi
regime. Prescott Bush, father of George Herbert Walker Bush, did business and
made money from, and for, the Nazis.
William S.
Farish
He was one of Prescott Bush's partners in business deals with Adolph Hitler.
He was devastated by the intense grilling he received from the Senate about
his dealings with Nazis, and while Prescott Bush skated free, Farish
collapsed and died on November 29, 1942.
James Forrestal
He was Undersecretary and Secretary of the Navy during WWII, and became the
first Secretary of Defense in 1947. On March 28, 1949, he was forced out of
office and flown on a military plane to Jupiter Island in Florida. From there
he was taken to Walter Reed Army Hospital, where he was given insulin shock
treatments. He was shielded from all visitors except his estranged wife. On
May 22, 1949, he was found hanging by his bathrobe cord out a sixteenth-story
hospital window. His death was ruled a suicide, but results of the Army
inquest were not made public.
Karla Faye Tucker
She was executed in spite of enormous protest from the public, even those
religious groups that advocate the death penalty. Even Pat Robertson thought that
Karla was truly repentant and asked George W. Bush to spare her life. He
refused. Afterward, in a Talk Magazine interview, Bush mocked the woman whose
death warrant he had sanctioned, pursing his lips and whimpering,
"Please don't kill me!"
David Wayne Spence
David Wayne Spence was executed in Texas in 1997 in spite of compelling
evidence of his innocence. Two of the State's witnesses were co-defendants
who testified to avoid the death penalty, one of whom changed his story three
times in response to discrepancies. He later testified that police officer
Truman Simons encouraged him to alter his testimony. Two other witnesses for
the State were jailhouse snitches who recanted later and stated that they
were offered favors in exchange for testimony. All of this and more was
supposedly reviewed by Governor George W. Bush, but Bush refused to commute
his sentence, and did not order the Board of Pardons and Paroles to review
his request for clemency.
Gary Graham
Gary Graham was convicted of the robbery and murder of a white man in 1981.
Nearly two weeks after the crime, the state's prime witness could not pick
Gary's picture out of a photo line-up. Mr. Graham was arrested with a 22
caliber pistol. The victim had been killed with a 22, but the police firearms
examiner determined that Mr. Graham's gun DID NOT fire the fatal bullet. Four
witnesses said Gary Graham was with them, miles away from the convenience
store, when the murder occured. All four took and passed polygraph tests.
George W. Bush, predictably, expressed his faith in the Texas judicial system
and allowed Mr. Graham to be put to death. Mr. Graham maintained his
innocence to the end.
Lt. Colonel William Harris, Jr.
Lt. Col. William Harris was one of two commanding officers who could not
perform George W. Bush's annual evaluation covering the year from May 1, 1972
to April 30, 1973. They stated in their filing that "Lt. Bush has not
been observed at this unit during the period of this report."
Fortunately for George W. Bush, Lt. Col. Harris is not here to verify his
1973 statement. He's dead.
Lt. Colonel Jerry B. Killian
Lt. Col. Jerry B. Killian was another of George W. Bush's commanding
officers. He cannot testify in a court of law as to George W. Bush's
dereliction of his sworn duty. Lt. Col. Killian is dead.
And finally, Ronald
Wilson Reagan. No, Ronald Reagan is not dead. He survived an
assassination attempt at the hand of John Hinckley, who is the son of a close
friend of George H. W. Bush. Reagan is said to have ordered the military to
guard him instead of the Secret Service in the aftermath of the assassination
attempt. Hinckley has never been tried for the attempted murder of the
President, and it is this crime which originated the phrase "The
Bushy Knoll".
