More Sun Myung Moon Money Flows to Bush Family

[Cell Whitman]

Bush 41 is to be the keynote speaker at the Washington Times 25th anniversary in a couple weeks. Moon is also scheduled to speak.

Besides Moon spending $3 billion on the propaganda arm of the Republican Party called the Washington Times, funding theocrats like Lahaye, Falwell, bailing out fright mail guru Richard Viguerie, funding the father of the attack ad, Terry Dolan and creating front groups like the 300,000 strong American Freedom Coalition which was designed to gather the Christian "right" for political power..... and in general supplying the money, know how, "vision" and backbone to the Republican Party which took over all three branches of our government in 2001...

anyone wonder why Bush 41 would shill for Moon?

More Moon Money Flows to Bush Family

As followers of Rev. Sun Myung Moon pray for a presidential pardon for their aging Messiah's felony tax-fraud conviction in the 1980s, the latest tax filing of the Washington Times Foundation has become available. The return covers the months from April 2005 through March 2006 and shows a $100,000 contribution from the foundation to the Barbara Bush Foundation for Family Literacy. .

..snip...

This revelation of money donated to a charity associated with the Bush family is just the latest in a string of donations and payments dating back more than ten years. George H. W. Bush has had a long association with Moon going back to just after he left office. In September 1995 Bush and his wife gave a number of speeches in Asia for the Women's Federation for World Peace an organization headed by Moon's wife Hak Ja Han Moon. In November 1996 Bush spoke in Buenos Aires at a banquet honoring the opening of Moon's South American newspaper Tiempos del Mundo. Bush refused to disclose how much he was paid for his Moon-sponsored speaking tour.

In 2003 the Washington Times Foundation funneled a $1,000,000 donation to the Bush Presidential Library through the Greater Houston Community Foundation. In 2005 the Moon sponsored Interreligious and International Federation for World Peace made a donation of $1,000,000, it's largest donation of the year, to the senior Bush's Points of Light Foundation for Hurricane Katrina relief.

The Bush 2005 Inaugural Committee received the maximum $250,000 donation from Moon's Washington Television Center the entity that owns the large office building at 650 Massachusetts Avenue in the District of Columbia. In December 2005 the President's younger brother, Neil, was spotted touring Taiwan and the Philippines with Moon. Less than a year later Business Week published an article titled "No Bush Left Behind" profiling Neil Bush's company Ignite!, Inc. The company sells a high tech teaching aid called "Curriculum on Wheels" or COWs. The article states "A foundation linked to the controversial Reverend Sun Myung Moon has donated $1 million for a COWs research project in Washington ( D.C.)-area schools


From non-profit tax returns and media reports we see that at least $3,335,000 has flowed from the Unification Movement to Bush family members or charities since George W. Bush has taken office.

Quoting someone with principles - James Whelan, the first editor of Moon’s propaganda paper, the Washington Times. Whelan quit the paper saying he had "blood on his hands" for helping Moon gain credibility.

"They (the Moonies) are subverting our political system. They're doing it through front organizations--most of them disguised--and through their funding of independent organizations--through the placement of volunteers in the inner sanctums of hard-pressed organizations. In every instance--in every instance--those who attend their conferences, those who accept their money or their volunteers, delude themselves that there is no loss of virtue because the Moonies have not proselytized. That misses the central, crucial point: the Moonies are a political movement in religious clothing. Moon seeks power, not the salvation of souls. To achieve that, he needs religious fanatics as his palace guard and shock troops. But more importantly, he needs secular conscripts--seduced by money, free trips, free services, seemingly endless bounty and booty--in order to give him respectability and, with it, that image of influence which translates as power." James Whelan - 1991

and this from Bo Hi Pak, Moon's long time political aid describing how Bush, by selling the name, honor and prestige of the Presidency of the United States to Moon, got the Japanese to bow to Moon - this was when 41 and Barbara toured Japan for Moon in 1995.

Truth is My Sword, Volume II
by Bo Hi Pak Chapter 60 Give and Take of Love
New York, New York January 2, 1996

On the day after the 29th True God's Day, Dr. Pak speaks at an International Leadership Conference. Following Father's instructions, he recounts a detailed report of his year in Japan as a missionary, including his Day of Hope tour and the historical five-city tour of True Mother and President and Mrs. Bush. .....

Mother Was Number One

Last fall Father organized Mother's tour of Japan accompanied by Barbara and George Bush. Can you imagine a U.S. president, whether an incumbent or a former president, doing anything in a secondary position? They are always number one. A U.S. president is always number one. But this time who was number one? Mother was number one. Their respect for Mother and Father was incredible. ....

The U.S . president, therefore, is like the king of the world. The king of the world comes with Mrs. Moon? Impossible, they thought. This must be some kind of trick. When 50,000 people gathered in the Tokyo Dome and the program announced George and Barbara Bush, there were hundreds of people from the media outside and inside. Their palms were sweating as they wondered: Has George Bush really come? There must be some kind of trick. There will probably be a message on the video screen saying, "I'm sorry I couldn't be there in person, but I am there on video."

When George Bush's name was announced, there was wonderful applause. The media said, "No, no. It couldn't be true. It's too good to be true." When George and Barbara Bush, smiling from ear to ear, showed up on the stage, everybody was dumbfounded. They thought it must be a phantom, or maybe somebody put makeup on to look like George and Barbara Bush. They still didn't want to believe it.

Then George and Barbara Bush spoke, supporting Mother's idea for true family and world peace. The audience could not deny that they were George and Barbara Bush. They then thought, "Oh, the Bushes must have been deceived." The opposition was incredible. In the middle of the tour, people wanted to hear George and Barbara Bush say, "Well, we've been tricked. Now we are packing up and going home." They were waiting for that news.

Never in history has a U.S. president traveled to more than two cities in Japan. This time George and Barbara Bush traveled to five cities. No U.S. president has ever set foot on the island of Hokkaido. George and Barbara Bush went to Hokkaido. The citizens of Hokkaido bowed down to Father and Mother, because Father and Mother brought an American president to Hokkaido, the northern island. No president of the United States ever went to Kyushu, the southern island. Then George and Barbara Bush went to Fukuoka, the capital of Kyushu. The people of Kyushu were flabbergasted at Father and Mother's power to tell a U.S. president what to do and plan his schedule. Incredible. This completely changed the attitude of the Japanese government and media toward the Unification community. ....

The Japanese church has experienced incredible persecution. During 1996 we will completely chop off the old persecution, double the membership, and double it once again. The current membership will increase four times.

__

NOTE: the "persecution" Pak is most likely talking about is the Japanese courts system finding the Unification Church responsible for swindling vast sums of money from its citizens, targeting widows. We're not just talking about selling overpriced pagodas. One lady was awarded $2.4 million (USD) just last year.

Bush helps Moon open "Washington Times South" in South America - we'll let Robert Parry report how the Moonites saw Bush's shilling this time:

http://www.consortiumnews.com/archive/moon1.html

Bush then held up the colorful new newspaper and complimented several articles, including one flattering piece about Barbara Bush. Bush's speech was so effusive that it surprised even Moon's followers.

"Once again, heaven turned a disappointment into a victory," the Unification News exulted. "Everyone was delighted to hear his compliments. We knew he would give an appropriate and 'nice' speech, but praise in Father's presence was more than we expected. ... It was vindication. We could just hear a sigh of relief from Heaven."

here George speaks in August of 1996 in the USA - celebrating the Unification Church changing its name to the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification.



Neil Bush dines with Moon during Moon's promo tour for the Universal Peace Federation which is the culmination of his life's plans to influence the world. The UPF is what Moon started when the United Nations did go along with his idea to theocratize the UN by adding a theocratic body to the UN structure. Neil is on the left sitting between Jose DeVenecia the Speaker of the House of the Philippine's(to Bush's right) and Doug Joo head of the Washington Times. DeVenecia is the one who told thousands in Korea that Moon was leading his country's efforts to promote a religious body at the United Nations.

The Washington Times "independent" -- BULLSHIT!

Nansook Hong: "Moon crowned himself as 'Emperor of the Universe.' It was quite odd. Pictures were forbidden, nobody could take pictures - that was secret. At that point he became God, in his eyes." (Emperor of the Universe – documentary BBC - 2000

I told God that He could trust me, that I was different from Jesus. I said I would never, never pray as Jesus did in Gethsemane, "Father, let this cup pass from me." If I had to die in the position of servant of servants still I would not complain or feel sorry. I would be most happy to die on the path I was supposed to go.

1. Ah, so he's better than that wuss, Jesus?

Okey dokey.

[Cell Whitman]

5. Jesus couldn't get to heaven without Moon's help and Moon says he is better than God

In 1984, Moon arranged a strange ceremony in which he married his dead son's spirit to Hoon Sook Pak, the daughter of longtime Moon lieutenant Bo Hi Pak, then the publisher of The Washington Times. Moon's theology required the wedding because he believed only married individuals could enter the Kingdom of Heaven.

Even Jesus needed Rev. Moon's help in this way. "In what must stand as his ultimate act of arrogance, Sun Myung Moon actually had matched Jesus to an elderly Korean woman," Nansook Hong (Moon’s x-daughter in law) wrote. "Jesus himself needed the intervention of the Reverend Moon to move through those gates" of heaven. (Moon’s Dark Shadow – Robert Parry 1998 - http://www.consortiumnews.com/1990s/consor25.html )

and Moon says when all is said and done, and "Heavenly Father" looks down upon Moon's accomplshments, God will realize ...well...

In 1996, a few months before former presidents George H.W. Bush and Gerald Ford were to speak before a gathering celebrating the Unification Church’s name change to the "Family Federation for World Peace and Unification," Moon said this:

Now, with the advent of the True Parents on this Earth we all have to follow the perfected Adam's family. We cannot enter the Kingdom of God without True Parents' grace. We have to follow in their footsteps. …

The time has come when, wherever Reverend Moon appears, God will be there all the time. Whatever Reverend Moon may say, that will be God's message. …

Within this world there is no individual whom God loves more than Reverend Moon. There is no one else who knows God more than Reverend Moon. …

In the Last Days, when God looks down and sees Reverend Moon bestowing blessing upon millions of people in place of God then He will say that Father is even greater than God.

8. that has a long answer

even from me if I had the time and energy. :7

let me add a bit though...

check this out even though some links have died... try this:

http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2005/12/15/221015/62

the last link in that post is now wrong since the lady changed jobs, the link should be replaced with this very important link:

http://www.innercitypress.com/wfp110606.html

this will ramble more than usual I should be sleeping...

Remember how there was a successful effort to get democrats to realize they were being played for patsies if they lent their names to - and thus their credibility - to FOX and they rightly woke up, showed excellent spine and refused to participate in the FOX run debates???

The same is needed with the WT and Moon.

I cannot find one liberal cause Moon has ever spent a dime of his swindled money on... - yet some still add their names to Moon's effort...

No doubt Moon chose the Republican Party to raise up and molded the hard right and theocrats who he wants running the nation....the Republicans, thanks to Reagan's 11th commandment let Moon into their movement and he molded them into his own image. Moon is a theocratic, authoritarian, homophobe, who hates Darwin...notice how those are the new right Republican Party's "issues" after 25 years of Moon's influence?...there is reason that happened....Moon spent billions making that happen.

anyway, the right has mainstreamed Moon and by swilling down the Washington Times they have empowered Moon the world over...overseas he is introduced as the "owner of the prestigous Washington Times".....they mainstreamed Moon and some democrats have become naive and blind because the press does not report on Moon's actions and goals -- out of a grossly misguided fear that they would be attacking a "religion"...Moon's organization is not a religion, it is a political movement...Moon even dropped the word "church" from the latest mutations of his organization... he has in essence put his entire organization under the UPF.

but the democrats do not work to expose this because of that mianstreaming, the wrong belief that his is a religion...and Moon has smudged enough of them...Moon has also been working on recruiting black ministers and through them he is trying to make inroads into the black caucus and thus snag votes for his beloved Republicans...

One has to wonder why democrats - people like Corzine and Vilsak, send Moon greetings when he tours the country promoting his grand plan theocratic political manipulation machine.

It will be interesting to see if Moon's operatives will snag as many democrats as it did 5 years ago to "host" Moon and the Washingotn Times - the paper that has been kicking them in the nuts for the last 25 years - when they have the event on the 17th.

12. The media used to keep watch on Moon - Poppy Bush backed them off when

corporations started controlling the newsmedia and its contents.

Moon also bought up many of the studios around the DC area, and would offer space to networks for a fraction of normal costs, and include videocrews at bargain rates. This was when they were just looking to fill the 24hr news cycles.

Interesting how the networks backed away from all serious news stories about Moon around 1992, and never went back to revisit his operations in any significant way since then.

The guy controls over half this nation's FISHING INDUSTRY. And freepers have NO COMPLAINTS about that - neither does the corpmedia.

The guy wants to follow up Jesus as the SUCCESSFUL son of God, and freepers have NO COMPLAINTS about that - neither does the corpmedia.

The guy owns all the land above the world's largest aquifer, and that's OK with the corpmedia.

Thank you for connecting all those dots.
That list of "fronts" is incredibly long.

It's scary. This isn't what our Founding Fathers envisioned.
We must oust the Bushco machine and kick all cults out of our government.
We need a major cleansing.

10. Do devils ever die, or do they keep multiplying?

These fucks.... want and have all the republican power...Sun Myung Moon, Paul Harvey, Billy Graham, Jerry Falwell, James Dobson, Pat Robertson, etc.... not only do they live in our time, they multiply...they live and lie into their late 90's and far past, no real reguard to a caring & loving reality, they just keep spewing out the same white man lies, hate & bullshit...Shit, I'm a white man, and yet I despise their lies an republican ideology.

What are they so afraid of...that we want peace with people of color? Speaking of the elite?

When will these evil, wicked demonic devils die?

Bush in Paraguay (Update)

Wonkette, of all sites, has a superb rundown of a story
:
http://www.wonkette.com/politics/george-w.-bush/we-hate-to-bring-up-the-nazis-but-they-fled-to-south-america-too-208549.php

we first told a few days ago: Bush the elder has purchased nearly a hundred thousand acres in northern Paraguay, apparently adjacent to, or carved from, the 1,482,600 acres (!!!) owned by the Reverend Sun Myung Moon, the Bush family's most notorious friend. Regarding the latter spread, this story (brought to my attention by a reader) is a must-read:

Nevertheless, national Senator Domingo Laino sees a different pattern in Moon's acquisitions. "There are two principal branches to Moon's interest in Paraguay," he said, "control of the largest fresh drinking water source in the world and control of the narcotics business", which is so prevalent in this area.http://www.rickross.com/reference/unif/unif240.html

[Cell Whitman]

14. Moon's followers know what "Father's projects" are all about

why isn't that the American public allowed in on the ruse?

Who can spot Reagan's 11th, the most evil empowering political tool ever devised, in action here?

U.S News and World Report March 27, 1989
Rev. Moon's Rising Political Influence
His empire is spending big money trying to win favor with conservatives.

On New Year's Day, 1987, South Korean mystic Sun Myung Moon, who considers himself to be the son of God, told his Unification church followers that he wanted to expand the church's political influence in the United States. His aim, Moon said, was "the natural subjugation of the American government and population." ...

...the (Unification Chucrh)church has established a network of affiliated organizations and connections in almost every conservative organization in Washington, including the Heritage Foundation, the largest of the conservative think tanks and an important source of government personnel during the Reagan administration. Although Heritage officials deny it, the foundation has dramatically changed its policy toward the Unification Church. In the early 80's the foundation, wary of the church's aims, prohibited staff or fellows from being associated with Unification Church organizations or taking money from the church or church-financed institutions.

As the Washington Times has become the voice of capital conservatives, the Heritage Foundation has become far more tolerant of church ties. The foundation accepts the participation of Lichenstein and other senior fellows in church-funded enterprises and allows its staff members to go to church conferences.

The Unification Church's newfound influence has occasioned intense debate among conservatives. One group of worried young conservatives meets regularly in private to compare notes about the problem. But little of the debate has surfaced in public forums. "Most people are afraid to address the issue because they don't want to publicize the extent of the church's involvement," says Amy Moritz of the Conservative National Center for Public Policy Research.

Because almost all conservative organizations in Washington have some ties to the church, conservatives also fear repercussions if they expose the church's role. That happened when one organization, the Capital Research Center, published a newsletter last November warning of the church's attempt to create a "centralized world theocracy." One of its board members, who was also on the board of the International Security Council, resigned in protest, and conservatives charging that the paper was creating discord on the right, besieged the center with angry calls. "We got a very, very strong reaction -- almost as if we were the enemy -- because we raised the issue," says CRC Chairman Willa Johnson, a former president of the Heritage Foundation.

15. "...that’s just a hoax.."

In the 70s he was saying that democracy was evil, Americans were lazy, the Koreans are the master race. In fact he believes that when he takes over the world, which is espoused goal, there’ll be a theocracy which will rule with himself and other leaders. All other religions will be abolished. The only language spoken will be Korean. I mean this man is a demagogue who doesn’t believe in pro family values, that’s just a hoax. What he believes is he is the True Parents of mankind and his group and the people who have been - quote “blessed” unquote - by him are now “the family.” Everyone else is in Satan’s world.
