4. Ugly Flashback: Neil Bush and the Silverado Savings & Loan
Edited on Mon Aug-25-03 01:00 PM by SpiralHawk
Lest we forget, Neil Bush was at the heart of the Silverado Savings & Loan scandal, which was part of the overall Savings and Loan Scandal a few years back.

I am going to post this to the thread, and then go in search of a link. It's a very important part of the Bush family story, and ought to be remembered. As an old professor of mine used to say, "it applies."

Please add other links if you know of good material on Neil and his banking crimes.

OK - I'm back; googled Neil and Silverado. There are a million links. This seems to be a good starting point:

http://www.rationalrevolution.net/bush_family_and_the_s.htm

"What is important to note about the S&L scandal is that it was the largest theft in the history of the world and US tax payers are who was robbed.

"The problems occurred in the Savings and Loan industry as they relate to theft because the industry was deregulated under the Reagan/Bush administration and restrictions were eased on the industry so much that abuse and misuse of funds became easy, rampant, and went unchecked.

<snip>

"There are several ways in which the Bush family plays into the Savings and Loan scandal, which involves not only many members of the Bush family but also many other politicians that are still in office and still part of the Bush Jr. administration today. 

"Jeb Bush, George Bush Sr., and his son Neil Bush have all been implicated in the Savings and Loan Scandal, which cost American tax payers over $1.4 TRILLION dollars (note that this is about one quarter of our national debt).

Additional facts on the Savings and Loan Scandal can be found here:

5. Like father like son, like son, like son...
I found this interesting about Glorious Leader's grandpa:

It's official - Saddam was not an imminent threat

Clare Short

snip...

I wanted, just for instance, to find out which company bought Dresser Industries, once the world's biggest oil services company, of which Prescott Bush (Dubya's grandfather) was director and for which George Bush senior opened up the West Texas oil basin. It was Halliburton, recent beneficiary of a contract in Iraq, where Vice President Dick Cheney made his fortune after being Bush senior's Defence Secretary. And on it goes. President Bush broke all records in the history of campaign finance to get 'elected'. One of his biggest donors was 'Kenny Boy' Lay, CEO of the Enron Corporation, operator of one of the biggest company frauds ever. And among Enron's lav ishly paid consultants was, inevitably, Ralph Reed, former head of the right-wing Christian Coalition, recommended to the board by Karl Rove, the Svengali figure who managed all Bush's campaigns in Texas, and is now the most powerful man in the White House.
