Wha--?

George Bush's brother, Marvin Pierce Bush, was in charge of the security at the WTC on 911!
"Did you know that Bush's brother, Marvin Pierce Bush, was in charge of the security at the WTC on September 11? They had everything in place. That is why they were able to plant all of the explosives over the previous weekend when the buildings were closed down for "maintenence"."

Think I'll do a "wait and see" on this one.

Probably wise. This one was just a little newsgroup chatter. I don't know if it's true, but like the blog title says, I wouldn't be surprised. It's kind of like "clue"... it was Dick Cheney in the library with the candlestick...

Marvin Bush
Marvin Pierce Bush (born October 22, 1956) is the youngest son of George H. W. Bush and Barbara Pierce, and brother of George W., John (Jeb), Neil and Dorothy. He is named for his maternal grandfather. He and wife Margaret have two children: a daughter, Marshall, and a son, Walker.

Marvin graduated from Woodberry Forest School in 1975, and also holds a B.S. from the University of Virginia. He spent most summers and holidays at the sprawling family estate, the Bush Compound. He was a director of the Sterling, Virginia company Securacom, also known as Stratesec, from 1993 until fiscal year 2000. The Securacom/Stratesec company was publicly traded and backed by an investment firm, the Kuwait-American Corporation. Securacom/Stratesec was in charge of security at the World Trade Center, Dulles International Airport, and United Airlines on September 11, 2001.

Currently, Marvin Bush is a Co-Founder and Managing Partner at the investment firm Winston Capital Management, located in McLean, VA. Mr. Bush has portfolio manager duties at Winston.

Marvin Bush is a former director of HCC Insurance Holdings, Inc (HCC), and is currently listed as an advisor to the board of directors [1]. HCC is a publicly traded insurance company on the New York Stock Exchange.

There is some anticipation that Marvin will follow other family members into politics. With his father being a former one-term president, his brother George W. a two-term president, and his brother Jeb a governor, there is speculation that Marvin Bush will also go into politics. Over the past decade, Marvin has engaged in a multitude of campaign and fundraising events. His brothers George and Jeb both positioned themselves as businessmen prior to going into politics.

Thanks for the confirmation, Anonymous.

I'm not really sure the country is ready (though Diebold may be at some point) for EVER having another Bush in office other than in a gerrymandered congressional district or something.

31, baby!

I didn't doubt the info about Marvin Bush. I've seen bits and pieces about it elsewhere.

Just meant that I'm not quite ready (or maybe in denial) to believe we engineered 9/11 although it certainly set the stage for everything that followed.

SheaNC said...

I'm one of those "wackos" who believes that the Bush administration, with Cheney in the lead, was fully complicit, if not responsible for, the 9/11 event. Here is a post I did last year that includes a whole bunch of links on the subject (I hope they're still good).

Simon said...

Ok, a) I really hope we never see the day when another Bush is in any office.

but b)... wow b).

Ok, I can't stand bush. I've supported, oh say, nothing he has done. I think the entire administration is corrupt, mindless (except for a mind towards making money for their friends), and just downright devoid of any moral or ethical values.

BUT...

I'm with granny on this. The conspiracy thing? Alright, I am a firm believe that we should always investigate every angle, and not rule any possibility out. But, these conspiracies don't even remotely hold. First off, I watched some of that "stuff" on the whole "A 757 didn't crash into the pentagon" bit. Well, I think it was a bunch of bogus crap. Most of them couldn't even correctly identify the height of the pentagon OR a 757. They make reference to "small" holes in the pentagon... have you ever been to the pentagon? I have, I worked off and on there for a few years, and let me tell you it's big. Imagine a big building in your head, and then triple... oh, just imagine HUGE! It used to take me over a half hour to walk from one side to the other where we did PT... there is an entire metro station in there... there is a freaking mall in there! Why do I raise this? Because the pictures are misleading, and make things seem small. If you look at the fireball, within seconds it is off the pictures and 3 to 4 times the height of the pentagon. That is 225 - 300 feet. A 757 is about 50 feet high, ok 44'6" but whose counting. The conspiracy theory says "why weren't there wings on the courtyard, or engines?" Well, if you read the reports, or several of the OTHER eyewitnesses, you would know that the wings broke, embedded in the fuselage, and were burried about 3 rings into the pentagon. There was small wreckage in the court... ya know, I'm not even gonna go through this anymore...

Let's do this: Did the government then secretly abduct all the passengers like Rodeny, Asia, and Bernard (children who were on flight 77) and shoot em in the back of the head and plop em in the river? And let's apply Occam's Razor here. IF, there was this HUGE conspiracy (versus just a catostrophic fuck up of non-preparedness) way not just have a wack job fly the plane into the pentagon? OORrrr... use some of that nifty predator technology and remotely fly a plane into the pentagon. WHY, on earth, would you plant explosives in the building, put yourself at the risk of people asking questions like "where are the freaking planes", hunting down several planes worth of people and wacking them (Oh, and they also happened to have been known to be flying by the parents, so you better wack them too and replace them with clones), buy the supposed planes from the airlines and destroy them, the myriad of freaking things you would have to do to make it seem plausible. Why... WHY, when you could have just hired a wackball, or remotely flew the plane. It doesn't make sense from any point.

Still, I won't rule it out. But, what I will suggest is this, we really don't need this conspiracy to illustrate that a freaking idiot is in charge of the country. Why denigrate ourselves by cooking up conspiracies like the old "Clinton killed Vince Foster" crap that those knuckleheads dreamed up. Come on, we're better than that. We can take this guys without becoming knuckleheads ourselves.

Simon, I agree that the conspiracy theory that 9/11 was an inside job is, in a word, unbelievable. That is exactly why they got away with it. There are other examples of similar occurrences in the past that succeeded because they were similarly unbelievable. One biggy is how Franklin Roosevelt allowed Pearl Harbor to be attacked, in order to get us involved in that war. When PNAC said they wanted "another Pearl Harbor", I believe they meant the conspiracy as well as the obvious attack.

Simon said...

So are you then suggesting it was indeed faked, and that the "victims" either do not exist or were killed in some other fashion? There were "supposedly" people on that 757, so did they never exist? Bullet to the head? What's the deal?

I won't even comment on the Pearl Harbor thing, as I think that is total tripe too. Dunno... I think I'll sit these conspiracy theories out. :)
