IMO, GHW was the last of the badass war hero presidents. Glad they named an aircraft carrier after him:usa:

Bush piloted one of four Grumman TBM Avengers of VT-51 that attacked the Japanese installations on Chichijima.[7] His crew for the mission, which occurred on September 2, 1944, included Radioman Second Class John Delaney and Lt.(jg) William White.[4] During their attack, the Avengers encountered intense anti-aircraft fire; Bush's aircraft was hit by flak and his engine caught fire. Despite the fire in his aircraft, Bush completed his attack and released bombs over his target, scoring several damaging hits.[4] With his engine ablaze, Bush flew several miles from the island, where he and one other crew member of the TBM bailed out;[8] the other man's parachute did not open.[4] Bush waited for four hours in an inflated raft, while several fighters circled protectively overhead, until he was rescued by the submarine USS Finback, on lifeguard duty.[4] For the next month, he remained in Finback and participated in the rescue of other aviators. Several of those shot down during the attack were executed, and their livers were eaten by their captors.[9] A radio operator from the Japanese unit that shot down Bush plane was American citizen Nobuaki Iwatake, a Japanese American who had settled in Japan six months before Pearl Harbor and was drafted into the Japanese Imperial Army in 1943.[10] This experience shaped Bush profoundly, leading him to ask, "Why had I been spared and what did God have for me?"[11]

Some of the most insane shit I've seen posted on here in a long time...

doesnt mean it's not true.

THe guy who compiled the research for that paper is Webster Tarpley. Look him up.

His reputation is impecable and he's considered an expert in the field.

"What we are taught about history in American schools is not history, but a fairy tale. Better yet, it is propaganda designed to hoodwink an unsuspecting society about its true heritage and the treasonous acts and sabotage that were conceived in order to bring about a New World Order. You are about to learn the real identities of those who have infiltrated your nation on behalf of secret societies intent on bringing about the total slavery of mankind. In the past, others have written about the numerous conspiracies to control natural resources, energy, food and our sovereign right to live on planet Earth — not as slaves of a wealthy few — but as free men, women, and children exercising the free will given to them by God."



Otto Skorzeny: S.S./ODESSA/CIA master spy and assassin:


"Friends and acquaintances of Nikola Tesla recall him complaining about Scherff’s son, George, Jr., always snooping around Tesla’s lab. On more than one occasion (probably during the late 1930s), Tesla caught the 14-year old Scherff looking at his notes, poring through his books, and stealing small items from his lab. Tesla gave him the nickname, “Curious George” and likened him to a “mischievous monkey.” According to Skorzeny, (Adolph Hitler’s former bodyguard) in a deathbed confession to Eric “Orion” (Eric Berman) in S. Miami, Florida, Tesla, “hated the younger Scherff.” In fact, according to Skorzeny, the “Curious George” book and movie were inspired by Tesla’ s suggestion.

Curiously, the day before the national theatrical release of the Hollywood production of the Curious George feature length film, Alan Shalleck, the originator of Curious George (and the man in the Yellow hat), was found murdered under a pile of plastic garbage bags in his driveway in Florida at age 76. [13]

In short, Otto Skorzeny claimed that the true identity of George H.W. Bush was “George H. Scherff, Jr., the son of Nikola Tesla’s illegal-immigrant, German-born accountant, George H. Scherff, Sr.”"

Union Pacific Railroad will be part of this week's funeral procession for President George H.W. Bush, who died Nov. 30 at the age of 94.

Following funeral and memorial services in Washington, D.C., and Houston, Bush will be transported by the funeral train from Spring to College Station, Texas, on Thursday.

The funeral train will leave UP's Westfield Auto Facility at 1 p.m. Thursday and should arrive at College Station by 3:25 p.m., UP officials said in a press release.

College Station is the location of the George H.W. Bush Presidential Library, where Bush will be laid to rest.

The funeral train will include UP No. 4141 George Bush Locomotive, which was unveiled Oct. 18, 2005, during a ceremony near the library and museum on the Texas A&M University campus.

The custom-painted unit incorporates the colors of the Air Force One used during Bush's years as president, from 1989 to 1992. Bush was the nation's 41st president, hence the locomotive bears the number 4141.

The SD70ACe locomotive measures 15 feet 11 inches tall and weighs 420,000 pounds with a full tank of diesel fuel, according to UP's website.

Westfield Auto Facility is closed to the public, UP officials said.

There are a ton of conspiracy theories involving HW, the CIA, JFK, among other things I've read.

But heading the CIA will definitely make you a target for a lot of conspiracies, given the nature of the organization.

I don't think he was a particularly great president; but tons of respect for his career and the things he did for this country. I think what he did after his presidency also deserves a ton of credit too; as I know he raised a ton of money for charity and used his position to affect a ton of positive change. Certainly a sad day for the country when any president, past or present, passes away.
