You might want to pay special attention to the following lines in this:
operations were carried out with the knowledge of, among others, President Ronald Reagan, Vice President George Bush [and others...]
All of the individuals charged were convicted, except for one CIA official whose case was dismissed on national security grounds and two officials who received unprecedented pre-trial pardons by President Bush following his electoral defeat in 1992.
For the intellectually challenged the first quote means Bush knew about it and was involved. The second one shows he covered it up.
Here is another Iran/Contra link about Bush.
The indictment contained documents revealing that President Bush had been lying for years with his claim that he was "out of the loop" on the Iran-contra decisions
"Our findings led us to the possibility not only that George Bush knew from the start, and was kept informed, but that the diversion actually ran through the office of the Vice President."
--Dan Rather in The Camera Never Blinks Twice, 1994.
"There is new written evidence tonight concerning what President Bush knew -- and when he knew -- about the secret deal that sent some of America's best missiles to Iran's Ayatollah Khomeini. The Grand Jury evidence raises new questions about whether Mr. Bush is telling the truth."
--Dan Rather on the CBS Evening News, October 30, 1992.
New York Times article
Mr. Weinberger was scheduled to stand trial on Jan. 5 on charges that he lied to Congress about his knowledge of the arms sales to Iran and efforts by other countries to help underwrite the Nicaraguan rebels, a case that was expected to focus on Mr. Weinberger's private notes that contain references to Mr. Bush's endorsement of the secret shipments to Iran.
In one remaining facet of the inquiry, the independent prosecutor, Lawrence E. Walsh, plans to review a 1986 campaign diary kept by Mr. Bush. Mr. Walsh has characterized the President's failure to turn over the diary until now as misconduct.
But in a single stroke, Mr. Bush swept away one conviction, three guilty pleas and two pending cases, virtually decapitating what was left of Mr. Walsh's effort, which began in 1986.
Mr. Walsh bitterly condemned the President's action, charging that "the Iran-contra cover-up, which has continued for more than six years, has now been completed."
Is that enough for you IT? I've got LOTS more....
Yeah, I use that same line a lot in reference to Bill Clinton. Freepers always engage in inspired slithering when repeating their charges against him(just because $100 million tax dollars worth of investigation couldn't hang a parking ticket on him doesn't mean you have to start telling the truth). Remember, unlike the lie you're trying to sell about Bush - when it comes to Filegate, Travelgate, Paula Jones, Vince Foster, Ron Brown, looting of White House/Air Force One and any of the other looney stories you've concocted - no one was ever charged, tried, convicted or pardoned.
As an alternative, of course, you could apologize for your dishonest claim
But I posted another link for you here. Nothing dishonest about me, hell I've got about a million more links on this.
and resolve to post henceforth in a way that will win the respect of honest people. I merely mention this in passing...
You merely try to BS your way out of this. Sorry Sparky I'm not letting you weasel out. You're trying to claim that Bush had nothing to do with Iran/Contra and the whole world knows that ain't so....
Unless, you loved the Sandinistas and got a woody over hamstringing counterintelligence.
Conservatives love America and American supremacy. Liberals feel guilt about everything and loathe their own existence.
The fact is, you lied the content of your own link, you lied about the nature of Hammer's conviction, and you lied about Hammer's relationship with Republicans. Now, for variety, you post some links to other liars, then hoot and thump your chest in absurd triumph.
Nothing dishonest about me...
And some people say leftists have no sense of humor.
