An anonymous coward writes:
"Bush-Nazi Link Confirmed"

WASHINGTON - After 60 years of inattention and even denial by the
U.S. media, newly-uncovered government documents in The National
Archives and Library of Congress reveal that Prescott Bush, the
grandfather of President George W. Bush, served as a business partner
of and U.S. banking operative for the financial architect of the Nazi
war machine from 1926 until 1942, when Congress took aggressive
action against Bush and his "enemy national" partners.
The documents also show that Bush and his colleagues, according to
reports from the U.S. Department of the Treasury and FBI, tried to
conceal their financial alliance with German industrialist Fritz
Thyssen, a steel and coal baron who, beginning in the mid-1920s,
personally funded Adolf Hitler's rise to power by the subversion of
democratic principle and German law.
Furthermore, the declassified records demonstrate that Bush and his
associates, who included E. Roland Harriman, younger brother of
American icon W. Averell Harriman, and George Herbert Walker,
President Bush's maternal great-grandfather, continued their dealings
with the German industrial baron for nearly eight months after the
U.S. entered the war.
No Story?
For six decades these historical facts have gone unreported by the
mainstream U.S. media. The essential facts have appeared on the
Internet and in relatively obscure books, but were dismissed by the
media and Bush family as undocumented diatribes. This story has also
escaped the attention of "official" Bush biographers, Presidential
historians and publishers of U.S. history books covering World War II
and its aftermath.
The White House did not respond to phone calls seeking comment.
