They hit offshore too did they not?....as Zapata.

The grandpa was with Brown Brothers Harriman wasn't he?


I believe Mama Bush came from money as well, but I forget how.

Anyhow...they seem like decent moneyed folks to me and most of their many offspring are achievers and sure lack the scandalous behavior of America's other political/money dynasty that was dirty from the getgo from Honey Fitz and Papa Joe and onwards.

I think you're right about hitting offshore but I think this was after GHWB got out in the early-mid 60's.

I agree with you completely about the comparisons to the Boston mob. In comparison, the Bushes are real patricians. Maybe with the exception of Neal.

But, then again, I'm not certain that his supposed sins regarding the Silverado thing were that big a deal.
