Several members of the Bush family are investors in the Carlyle Group, a defense contractor and investment fund with numerous interests in the Middle East, run by former Reagan administration Secretary of Defense Frank Carlucci.[3] The media noted that former President George H. W. Bush attended an investment meeting at the Washington, D.C. Ritz-Carlton hotel on September 10, 2001 and in particular a meeting with Shafiq bin Laden, representing joint interests of the Saudi Binladin Group and Carlyle.[4] (Bush did not attend the morning of September 11, although it has been alleged that the meeting took place during the 9/11 terrorist attacks. Former Secretary of State James Baker was present, along with Carlucci.[4]) The Carlyle and Binladin groups mutually severed their business relationship on October 26, 2001.[4] wikipedia your question: because hes part of the problem Pink

Yes, the Bin Ladens are very wealthy and powerful construction business people. The Bush's and Bin Ladens are great people!

yes of course.
in fact, george h.w. bush was watching the carnage on 9/11 with a member of the bin laden family.
it would only be logical (to anyone who REALLY wants to fight the war on terror) that the bin laden family would at least be interrogated before leaving the nation - but they weren't.
the truth is that the bush family has received over $1 billion dollars from the bin laden family and other saudi interests over the past 20 years.
the war on terror needs to be fought, but not by a member of the bush family - they will never treat the saudis the way they need to be treated.

No they didn't.
Bush had dealings with Bin ladens father and brother.
There is no record of the US or Bush ever having any dealings with Osama Bin Laden.
Why even try and make stuff up ?
EDIT:
It's either troubling or scary, either way you look at it.
The people who hhave answered in here, are either flat out lying for political reasons. Troubling.
Or they are so uninformed, that they actually believe that Bush ever had dealings with Osama Bin Laden. Scary.
And for the poster who made the comment about the Carlyle Group, I guess they didn't get the memo, that the Carlyle Group was founded and owned by a Very liberal Democrat David M. Rubenstein who founded the Carlyle Group after being a White House Aide for Jimmy Carter.

Excellent observation!
Did you know Binladen's father built most of the US military facilities in Saudi after the first gulf war?
Binladen construction is the largest construction firm in Saudi Arabia.
So I say yes, you could definitely say he did business with "A" Bin laden
Actually the Bin laden family is a highly respected one who no longer lays claim to Usama. I truly believe they would burn him at the stake if he was ever to return home.

Oh yeah, I'm sure I saw bin Ladin in the background of one of the broadcast from the Crawford ranch. Come to think of it, wasn't Laura also back there chatting it up with Osama , Cindy Sheehan, Fidel Castro and Hugo Chavez? It's all just a big act for the tabloids. They are really all very good friends. Buds to the end.

Gosh! Someones just realized that politician is another word for terrorist.
Lets see, Israel, their old guy was a terrorist, Ireland, Gerry Adams, and the geriatric preacher, they are either crooks or terrorists. Wilson, lived in Chequers and got the state to pay for his farm at Gt Missenden to be rebuilt, if they are any good they are soon kicked out. Nine bob notes come into it somewhere.
Its the same "as set a crook to catch a crook". Believe me nobody with any sense does a job like that because he wants to be loved.

is it supposed to escape our attention that Bin Laden is just a figure-head that the present Bush Admin have latched on to.

the UK did the same, it's always better to fight a foe that you've armed, aided & abetted,
thatcher did just that with Argentina.
