You can also reference this in the archives of CNN any other news sites

You republicans live in a world of denial

Answer 1

The NEOCONS will soon have to accept this family is anti-American to the core. Money is all that matters. Republicans of the older generation will be turning in their graves. Bush and Co make Richard Nixon look like an angelic chorister. Have you not had enough yet?

Answer 2

you know a place I worked at got fined 2 million and was shut down by OSHA for some violations, but guess what I never did a thing wrong personally.

A company where he worked was fined according to this article

And your refference is about as trust worthy as mickey mouse, I can send you to alot of sites that will tell you about the true secret moon bases, about the the time tunnel hidden in NY and alot of get blog sites. I rate yours about alittle below those on honestly.

And no, the fact that somebodys uncle did something does not bother me a bit, most people have a family member they are ashamed of.

You reference and 25 cents is not even worth the quarter.

Answer 3

Well, I never heard of this, so I assume most Republicans havn't either. If true it should raise a few eyebrows, but ultimately, a man is not his uncle.

I seriously doubt G.W. Bush, as inept and mean-spirited as he is, actually would betray the United States intentionally.

I'm not inclined to give him much, but I'll give him that.

Answer 4

lets see he was fined for doing something wrong and you blame the republicans for what? but the president did not stop the fines or ask for justice not be done and you find fault with that. it is sort of like the Enron scandal( do you know that Enron gave millions to Pres.Clinton) all the illegal deals happened in the 1990"s and prosecuted by President Bush.

Answer 5

talk left??? NEVER.... commies have no truth to offer, only misery.

What does Sirota have to do with Bush's uncle?
Do not a lot of other banks handle Saudi Arabian money? I consider Saudi Arabia to be a financial backer of Muslim extremists.... and definitely anti-American..... CNN... has long been called the Communist News Network.... they have reformed somewhat in the past two or three years.... but still, Glenn Beck and Lou Dobbs are the only two that are reforming the CNN image....

Answer 6

Regulators have not charged the bank with money laundering, but they have charged that Riggs failed to comply with laws that require banks to report to law enforcement officials any suspicious transactions. Regulators have also said the bank didn't take the required steps to prevent money laundering.

Answer 7

dUMPstEr, you are a card.

First you admit to being a blog reader.

Then it turns out to be talkleft!

All about a relative of Bush?

Answer 8

andy g ,,,,, still obsessed with Bill Clinton,,, Bush supporters blame Clinton after 6 years of failing the American people,, lies,, conservative corruption,,,, losing the war in Iraq,,, if a Republican president is selected in 2008,, who would they blame.

Answer 9

Why should it bother me...

Bill Clinton sold nuclear missile guidance technology to that nutcase dictator running North Korea..

But all you Republican bashers out there sweep that fact under the rug...

Answer 10

You Republicans can never be shown anything to make you question Bush Its like blind faith,and Bush is your God your worst then the radical Muslims in their support for Bin Laden.
