Bush's Nazi Connections

When host Whoopi Goldberg raised the issue of George W. Bush’s comparing anyone who wants to talk to Iran or Syria with the appeasers of Nazi Germany on Monday’s edition of ABC’s The View, the panel erupted into furious debate.

Conservative Elizabeth Hasselbeck repeatedly attempted to question whether Bush’s remarks were really aimed at Barack Obama. She insisted, "It’s not always about him," and suggested Obama is being defensive because he knows his support for talks with Iran is a weak spot.

"I think the president was very clear in what he meant," Goldberg replied tartly.

"The Bush administration is out there talking to North Korea, talking to Syria," noted liberal Joy Behar. "Isn’t that what diplomacy is about? This guy doesn’t know the difference between the word ‘diplomacy’ and ‘appeasement.’ He’s just stupid."

"One more point," continued Behar, pulling out a prepared statement. "It’s very interesting and ironic that George Bush, Senior’s — er, George Bush, this one — his grandfather — this one — the late — I don’t like to speak ill of the dead, but in this case it’s fun — he was a United States senator, Prescott Bush. Okay — he was a director and shareholder of companies that profited from their involvement with the financial backers of Nazi Germany."

"This is his grandfather," Behar continued. "He has no business talking to Jewish people when he’s got this right in his backyard."

"How come you can bring up this backyard but then it’s not alright to dig into Obama’s backyard and family history?" was all the flustered Hasselbeck could find to say.

RAW STORY’s Larisa Alexandrovna also cited the Prescott Bush connection last week. In her blog, at-Largely, she wrote:

Dear Mr. Bush,

Your speech on the Knesset floor today was not only a disgrace; it was nothing short of treachery. Worse still, your exploitation of the Holocaust in a country carved out of the wounds of that very crime, in order to strike a low blow at American citizens whose politics differs from your own is unforgivable and unpardonable. …

Well Mr. Bush, the only thing this comment lacked was a mirror and some historical facts. You want to discuss the crimes of Nazis against my family and millions of other families in Europe during World War II? Let me revive a favorite phrase of yours: Bring. It. On!

Your family’s fortune is built on the bones of the very people butchered by the Nazis, my family and the families of those in the Knesset who applauded you today. …

You family did not stop with supporting fascists and Nazis abroad, did they Mr. Bush? Surely you must know of your grandfather’s role in the treasonous plot of 1933 to overthrow democracy in America? Let me remind you.

Grandpa Bush - that is to say, your grandfather - wanted fascism imported into the United States, or as you now call this type of transformation, "exporting democracy." Prescott went so far as to subsidize a coup attempt in order to achieve his dream of a fascist America.
