The Aloha Oil acquisiton by Harken was going to be a $15 million loss that Bush knew personally was coming and would very likely lower Harken stock if not cast doubt on Harken management. So Bush unloaded Harken before news of the Aloha Oil losses became known to stockholders. Harken went down to $3 a share and did not rebound to $9 a share for more than a year after Bush dumped his stock ( and shareholders too) and after the Aloha Oil losses were absorbed by Harken ( and the stockholders).

This one story that the SEC (totally stacked by Bush Senior appointees) did not properly address in letting Bush Jr off the hook. It is the one story that the Bush spin artists do not talk about and would not be able to easily or honestly overcome.

Why is no one in Congress or the major news media or in either political party, or conservatives ,etc, complaining that Bush is sharing US star wars missile defense technology (and eventually operational control) with the Russians and Putin?

I think many of the American people have given up any political resistance to their loss of freedoms, to legalizing millions of illegal aliens, to giving away US soverignity to the ICC and to allowing the US to dwell carelessly by giving Russia our missile defense and China our nuclear technology.

The new world order and world government is already here and many in Congress and Bush have embraced it and ignore the American people and our Constitution.

I have heard some Americans now say, it is too late.

The American people have no where to turn to or do they?

Americans should rely more on themselves and each other rather than their failed leaders. And more importantly, they can rely on God and Jesus Christ to turn things around if they have the faith and will.

Just curious:

I understand and agree with the first sentence. The second sentence has me puzzled.
I can understand how a person's personal life and family can and does improve with the faith in God and Jesus. I do not agree however, that God and Jesus care a whit about national or international politics. The Creator of the universe, and everything that is in it, both imaginable (by us) and unimaginable (by us) could with a blink and a snap of the fingers (or whatever mode of action that God would choose) can easily "turn things around" a few thousand years ago. So, why allow everything that is not politically good to occur, from day one to present?
Don't those who disagree politically have a God to pray to?

I believe God has higher priorities than the little politics that we mortal sometimes dabble in.

Just my 3 cents (John Huang has the monopoly on 2 ) :-)

When the Power Structure exerts the kind of control over information sources , as there appears to be in this matter, there's a blowback effect. People just plain resent being steamrolled.

It took time for the cracks to appear in the TWA800, OKCBomb, Mena, etc, walls but they eventually did. We're 12+ years down the road from the Harken et al. story and a LOT of hypocracy has had to be put in the foreground to cover an incompetent poor little rich kid. And more and more folks are resenting that also.

The current drive toward near-dictatorial power for the "president" is the natural extension of the maintaining of Power for an Elitist Dynasty. And that Dynasty is not only the Bush family.

Forcing them into more abusive overt actions is what is coming next. It'll be done by those who've exhausted their tolerance capacity. We'll all see it, we'll all be affected by it.

And Revelations Predicts it.

Typo found in this sentence-typo is noted with "[]":

"Harken went down to $[1] a share and did not rebound to $9 a share for more than a year after Bush dumped his stock"

Bush sold the stock for $4 a share before it plummeted to $1 a share.

The main point of reply #229 was that Bush knew before he dumped his stock that Harken was going to have to show sooner or later, despite what experts are now calling Enron style fraudulent accounting practices, a huge $15 million loss (that would devalue Harken's stock) on its books for Harkens unwise purchase of (and resale of) Aloha Oil.
