At Last NPR connects Dresser to Halliburton
Edited on Thu Jan-22-04 09:34 AM by LeftHander
On the air.

Dresser - Prescott Bush (Granddad) was on the Board of Directors and lead the company in going public in 1928. G.H.W. Bush cut is teeth as executive of Dresser.

Cheney aquired Dresser in 1998 all Dresser stock was converted to Halliburton. If Bush family member's hold less that 5% of Dresser stock at the time of conversion disclosure was not required.

It's about the money.

G.W. Bush was G.H.W. Bush's liason to the religious right while dad was President.

Bush's fundementalist christian act is just that. An act. How easy is it to use the love of God and faith in Jesus to dupe unsuspecting christians? Ask people like Jimmy Swaggert, Tammy Fay and other TV evangelicals that prey upon people faith to usurp money and power.

Bush is spritual fraud.

1. My in-laws were duped by Jim and Tammy Faye and didn't learn
their lesson. They are now being duped by the chimp. They hear "pro-life" and that person gets their vote. I have tried to talk politics with them but it is a useless cause. I love them dearly, but they are simply not smart enough to look past the ideaology and look at the politics. They are being hurt by the chimps policies, but he is a christian. While I try to get them to understand all of this, they try to get me "to see the light" and want us to join their church. No stinkin' way.
