Does Bush still plan on retiring in Paraguay?
Or was that the soft landing place if he had been exiled?

1. That was the place for him to build up his private gestapo and run rampant over Latin America.
It is also a start of the fresh water wars to come.

23. Went sent Rev. Moon troops to protect his lake
in S. America. Do citizens know that? It is unconstitutional not to mention interfering in another countries private lands.

26. They are too important to be tied to just one country
They want to rule the world. I call them "globalists" who believe in World Order (disorder it seems) Government. They don't care about their country but being part of the elite few.

Once they reach power they want it all. I believe it to be a sickness in the human condition. We've seen it all though history. That's why we had separation of powers...but that has been negated by the "globalists" in our government.

6. Do Paraguay's extradition laws cover international war criminals?
I suck at reading legal documents, but it seems like Bush wont be safe there. There are many exceptions to the law.

5. I wonder if he'll sell the Texas ranch the moment he leaves office
He bought it in August, 1999, on the eve of his run for office, as a prop to make him look like a cowboy.

10. I don't think so, too easy for the thousands of bounty hunters to get him there.
And they won't give a tinker's damn about any extradition treaties.

13. He won't be safe any where in the world
Just think we have to pay for his safety with our tax dollars. That is why we should impeach him. He has enough of our tax dollars in Cayman Island banks, etc.

12. Makes you sick don't it.
To know for a fact that he cannot be punished for what he has done. No matter what happens he will live in luxury for the rest of his life.

There is nothing anyone will ever be able to do that will bring him to a courtroom for a guilty verdict.

There are some who say that he is Innocent until proven guilty. Well we can at least prove one thing. This world is a much worse place directly because of him and I believe you could prove it in court.

The best that you could do is put him under siege.

15. I was wondering...
Didn't Bush say something about being able to "kidnap" anyone from any country whenever the US felt like it, regardless of extradition treaties? I think he was talking about hauling evil terrorists (FEAR!11!!!) off for torture. Do you think we could apply this to Bush if he absconds to Paraguay? I would love it if some of his new laws came back to bite him in the ass.

He'll have to pay his spirit bill eventually.

He's going to be living in Dallas.

34. Naw, he has been dragging his feet on global warming knowing
there will be horrific droughts. This is where Paraguay comes in. His land is situated over the world's largest aquifer. Rev Moon also owns land there. Both are there to capitalize on the coming disasters.

39. Look instead to where any money went. Who was influenced in reference to this
The Paraguay Archive and the evidence that was released:

George Bush Sr. May Face Charges: Conspiring to Kidnap and Murder Political Activists
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x2459135

I'm always impressed by the absurdity of the cover stories.

Yeah, Paraguay is just like Kennebunkport--the Yacht Club, the Hunt Club, the Golf Club, and the Corrupt Bastards Club--gotta retire there! :rofl:
