Mena, Arkansas - is this why the Bushes and Clintons protect each other? (L.D. Brown book)
Crossfire: Witness in the Clinton Investigation ^ | Dec. 29, 2007 | L.D. BROWN

CROSSFIRE: Witness in the Clinton Investigation

NOTE: Several years ago, I helped L.D. Brown with a book tour in Southern California. He was there to see the whole sordid mess of the Clintons and was trooper bodyguard for Bill for six years. L.D. never saw Bill use cocaine, because he would never put up with that in his presence. But he knew Bill used it. Some have wondered why George Bush has not pursued the crimes of the Clintons. I believe it goes back to the days of Mena, Arkansas, where large shipments of cocaine were being delivered by Barry Seal.

While, of course, there is no solid proof of drug money at the highest levels of our government general observation will suffice. No American politician in 2007 A.D. can resist cash and lots of it.

NO MORE CLINTONS, NO MORE BUSHES.

One can't help but wonder, who is being paid off, as 700 plus TONS of dope crosses the Mexican border each year.

Loads of great reading here - http://prorev.com/clinton.htm

ALL IN THE FAMILY: THE BUSHES AND THE CLINTON

[For more than a decade, the Review has pointed out the close connection between the Clintons and the Bush, so it’s nice to have it confirmed by a member of the family - family in this case being used in its prosecutorial rather than biological sense]

GREG PIERCE, WASHINGTON TIMES - President Bush says Bill Clinton has become so close to his father that the Democratic former president is like a member of the family. Former President George Bush has worked with Mr. Clinton to raise money for victims of the Asian tsunami and the hurricane disaster along the Gulf Coast. Asked about his father and Mr. Clinton, Mr. Bush quipped, “My new brother.” “That’s a good relationship. It’s a fun relationship to watch,” Mr. Bush said in an interview on CBS’ “Face the Nation” on Sunday. While attending Pope John Paul II’s funeral, Mr. Bush said, “It was fun to see the interplay between Dad and Clinton. One of these days, I’ll be a member of the ex-presidents’ club. . . I’ll be looking for something to do.” He said ex-presidents share rare experiences that others cannot understand. “And so I can understand why ex-presidents are able to put aside old differences,” he said. Mr. Bush said he has checked in with Mr. Clinton occasionally. “And you know, he says things that makes it obvious — that makes it obvious to me that we’re kind of, you know, on the same wavelength about the job of the presidency. Makes sense, after all, there’s this kind of commonality,” he said. Mr. Bush jokingly referred to speculation that Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton, the former president’s wife, will seek the Democratic nomination for president. He had earlier referred to the former first lady as “formidable.” “Bush, Clinton, Bush, Clinton,” he said, referring to how Bill Clinton had followed his father, and Hillary Clinton could follow him.

You can be sure that dirty politicians on _both_ sides of the border are getting their cut.

Mena is the real deal. Without it nobody outside of Arkansas would ever have heard of the Clintons.

My late grandfather said it best about the politicians: they are all crooks.

He wasn't making idle chatter, either. He paid them bribes to get favors needed for his business.

I've given my opinion of this Mena stuff before - most of the allegations are bogus. The original conspiracy theory was invented by Gene Wheaton to sell books and smear George H. W. Bush and Oliver North. The theories became so outlandish, they claimed that George W. Bush was a cocaine-smuggling pilot himself.

There are far better ways to tie Bill Clinton to cocaine, especially during his time as a law professor. That period of time has never been adequately investigated or reported - but there are some recent events that probably have Hillary worried about it. Stay tuned.

I have always wondered if there was a connection. Or still is.

What would happen if they were held accountable?

When Barry Seal was murdered in a halfway house, they found his address book in his trunk. It contained the personal number of George Bush. It was a dirty business fighting the communists in our hemisphere. We had to support bad people, just as we were pals with Joe Stalin in WW II. Drug smuggling was an unfortunate part of the dirty business. Bush was head of the CIA. He either knew what people were doing or deliberately closed his eyes to what was going on so he would have plausible deniability. In either case, Bill Clinton, as the corrupt governor of Arkansas, allowed billions of dollars of cocaine to come into Mena. He got his payoff - the presidency.

I don’t want to believe that Bush was involved. Maybe he was just incompetent and couldn’t run the CIA without rogues doing what they did. How could such an operation occur without his knowledge?

"He paid them bribes to get favors needed for his business."

My father was in a business that bid on gov't contracts and when, as a kid, I saw the cash changing hands as "Christmas gifts, etc.," and questioned my dad as to the local Congressman being a crook, my dad said, "Yes, but he's OUR crook."

Yes, I will stay tuned. I would like to see her directly tied to tainted blood from prisoners. That may be one of the many files that had to be removed from Foster’s office during the raid by Nussbaum and Williams.

“Read “Compromised: Bush,Clinton, and the CIA.” by Terry

Reed.

These folks are all screwing the country and getting rich.”

Reed exposed the deal to protect and elevate the Bush brothers and Bill Clinton to political power, in EXCHANGE for being compromised and controlled. (explains Shamnesty, doesn’t it??)

I hadn’t even heard of George W. and Jeb at the time, and ‘marked’ Reed’s report for future reference.....Yep.

I don’t know, but I would like to know. There is a reason that Clinton’s crimes were never punished. There is a reason that W has not gotten to the truth about the bombing of the Murrah Building. Jayna Davis has the proof of the involvement of Iraqis.

I agree fully. I think I am going to hibernate from the news and sites such as this if Clinton gets in. Gag me if we have to put up with the SOS any longer.
