Bush family...Scion of traitors and warlords:
<snip>
... why Bush is coy about his Irish links

Tapestry artist reveals ancestors of US president as murderous bunch

Angelique Chrisafis, Ireland correspondent
Thursday January 27, 2005
The Guardian

It is perhaps not the best omen for US foreign affairs. Local historians in Wexford have discovered that George Bush is a descendant of Strongbow, the power-hungry warlord who led the Norman invasion of Ireland thus heralding 800 years of mutual misery. With a long line of Scots Irish presidents including Woodrow Wilson, the Irish are normally quick to claim US leaders as their own. But, despite President Bush's large Ulster Scots vote in the American Bible belt, Ireland had let his family escape the genealogical microscope.

But now Ann Griffin Bernstorff, an artist working on a tapestry to commemorate Ireland's Norman heritage, has discovered what she claims is the Bushs' missing Irish link. Ms Griffin Bernstorff was researching Strongbow's son-in-law, William Marshal, when she discovered the connection. A descendant of Marshal married Anne Marbury Hutchinson, a famous 16th century religious dissenter who had already been linked to Mr Bush.

"It is one of those bizarre developments," she said. "We traced the Bush genealogy through a Republican source in Chicago and found it was correct. People here are absolutely shocked. I'm not sure what the wider reaction will be, Bush has not been seen as a great friend of the Irish."

Indeed, when Mr Bush visited a County Clare castle last year, radio talk-show hosts asked: "Is this the most hated American ever to set foot on Irish soil?"

The US president's now apparent ancestor, Richard de Clare, Earl of Pembroke - known as Strongbow for his arrow skills - is remembered as a desperate, land-grabbing warlord whose calamitous foreign adventure led to the suffering of generations. Shunned by Henry II, he offered his services as a mercenary in the 12th-century invasion of Wexford in exchange for power and land. When he eventually died of a festering ulcer in his foot, his enemies said it was the revenge of Irish saints whose shrines he had violated.

http://celebritycola.blogspot.com/2004/11/bush-and-kerr...
"Bush and Kerry Related to Vlad the Impaler and Royal Family (Did the Vampire Bite the Prez & Prince?)
After 500 years, the ruling class is still the ruling class. We can try to ignore it, or sugar coat it with elections, but the rich and powerful have retained much of their wealth and power.

Think about it: Despite hundreds of wars, millions or births and deaths, the Holocaust of WWII, the invention of the nuclear bomb, the development of modern democracy and communism, the rise and fall of the U.S.S.R., the colonization and revolution and independence and civil war and rise to power of the U.S. -- despite all of this – the aristocracy of yesteryear still retains an enormous amount of control."

Its all about the rich and their privleges ..all for them none for the commoners..
SOS been happening for yrs..
bush is the end result of royalist's,globalist's and dictator's
dreams /agendas all together in one crime family..a puppet with huge power...

3. "...died of a festering ulcer on his foot."
Festering ulcer? Hmmm? Sounds awfully familiar.
