Dear
Bart:
or even Secret Agenda
by Jim Hougan. Otherwise, Perry would not be claiming the press
was
still functioning as a watchdog during the Watergate years.
Well, they DID bring down a president.
Perry
has done a great job of connecting two or
three Bush scandals, that the Bushes and the CIA
have tried hard to
compartmentalize, into one long 12+ year scandal. However,
Perry
fails to see
this 12+ year scandal as part of a much longer, 40+ year,
series of covert operations, conducted by Bush,
the media, and elements
of the CIA and Military leadership. These Bush covert
operations
include,
at a minimum, the assassination of JFK, the framing and
removal of Nixon for Watergate, the October
Surprise treason to deny
Carter re-election, the Iran-Contra Scandal, the Contra Cocaine
scandal,
the Savings and Loan scandal, the faking of intelligence to
justify continuing the arms race with the USSR,
creating a false
history for George W. to conceal his being AWOL (and his history of
arrests, and his
shady business dealings including some with links to
future terrorists,) the BCCI scandal, the faking
of intelligence to
justify invading Iraq, putting Federal agencies under control of
unqualified political
cronies, and the firing of Dan Rather by CBS.
All of these Bush covert operations are documented
by Russ Baker in
Family of Secrets.
In my
view, even Baker missed a few major Bush
covert operations. For one, the cover-up of the
underage male
prostitution ring operating out of the Whitehouse during the first Bush
administration
and the gays and gay pedophiles, including W., running
the administration and the Republican Party
during W’s eight years in
the Whitehouse. Another is the theft of two Presidential
elections.
Another
is orchestrating the attacks of 9-11. (I haven’t even
mentioned the assassination of RFK,
the creation of multiple phony Bill
Clinton scandals, the 20 month media war against Al Gore,
the
vilification of Dan Quayle and Hillary Clinton or the crashing of the
US economy while the
Bushes were invested in gold.)
Anyway,
the Bush/CIA control of the media was
already well underway before Watergate.
Perry has done a good job of
connecting a few events, but Russ Baker, in Family of Secrets,
has done
a far better job of documenting the pattern and history of Bush family
covert operations
against this country for over 40 years.
I urge
Robert Perry, who I supported financially for many years,
and everyone else to read Family of Secrets by Russ Baker.
Jim W.
