Rangers Baseball Team get it straight Bush did not buy or own it.
Bush got $800,000 from his illegal sale of Harken stock and put it into 3% of Rangers stock.

He was figurehead General Manager.

The team ripped off the city of Arlington then sold out.

Bush had been given additional stock to get him to 8%(or 10%) which bought him 15 Million.

1. Actually it was 1 percent
and he was given 10 percent more from the majority owners for his help in the land grab for the stadium.... When the team was sold to Thomas Hicks (Clear Channel owner) Bush made close to 14 million....
