Neil Bush, the son of President George H. W. Bush, who defrauded U.S. taxpayers out of $1.5 billion dollars in the savings and loan scam, and later peddled influence for the Chinese government, (who plied him with Chinese prostitutes) has formally endorsed Senator Ted Cruz for president. You can’t make this stuff up.
This endorsement says much. Since the other, more politically involved Bush men have a distinct dislike for Mr. Cruz, I suppose Neil Bush is better than no Bush. Let’s look at the wonderful memories that Neil Bush has left us with. First there is is that little banking charade he steered us into back in 1985.
Back in 1981, Neil Bush was director of Silverado Savings and Loan in Denver, Colorado. Neil was very generous, lending millions to pals Kenneth Good and William Walters. The $250 million in loans went into default, S.S. & L. went bankrupt and had to be seized by the Feds. Neil Bush walked away with a cool $100,000 personal loan which he never paid back. Documents released by the Office of Thrift Supervision detailed the conflict of interest charges against Neil. Federal regulators described him as “unqualified, and untrained” to be a director of a financial institution.
It seems Neil miscalculated just how much he knew about directing a mega financial institution like Silverado Savings and Loan. By the summer of 1990, the cost of bailing out the savings and loan industry would cost at least $500 billion! Neil’s Silverado adventure cost U.S. taxpayers $1.5 billion.

It pains me but you’re right. I voted for Cruz but he is just as slimy and in the mud as the rest of the GOP elitists. He has some of their same donors.
He’s infiltrated. Cruz is blowing big time. The Bush dynasty will talk him into destroying himself. I want to assume that he does not realize what he’s getting into ...

Depends. Was his mother STILL an American Citizen when he was born, or had she renounced her US citizenship based on her title of Nobility in Jordan ?
“So David Duke supporting Trump makes Trump a racist then by this logic.’
Your comparison is off. David Duke is not part of the Trump campaign.
No need to reverse your opinion of Cruz, but I do advise RESERVING it. He should be given a chance to prove himself in the senate a while longer IMHO.
“That’s a good reason to vote for the guy who supported democrats his whole life.”
If you’re referring to Trump, he supported Republicans too. I know that doesn’t suit the agenda, but that is the truth.
I too investigated Cruz bitherism. Oh there is definitely smoke there, and fire.
BUT ...
It is better to defeat him in a CLEAN fight. Which is happening. Otherwise, we divide conservatives into two factions.
Trump has more ties to the Clinton’s then Ted does to the Bush’s.
Look at all the fraud’s the Clinton’s have been involved in and Trump still supported them.
“No need to reverse your opinion of Cruz, but I do advise RESERVING it. He should be given a chance to prove himself in the senate a while longer IMHO.”
Sorry, after Cruz’s latest insult today, my opinion will probably not change. Besides, I’m not good enough for Cruz and his camp. I only an undergrad degree. I’m not one of the snotty elite types that he’s courting.
Neil Bush joined the Cruz team this week.
Cruz is a Bush puppet.
Yes Trump has taken in money from KKK supporters.
What on earth are you even talking about? Man there’s a lot of desperation today.
If you’re referring to Trump, he supported Republicans too. I know that doesn’t suit the agenda, but that is the truth.
It’s a secret ballot...there3 is no record...idiot
Cruz just put a proven fraudster who paid a civil fine for his role in the Silverado Savings and Loan debacle that ended up costing taxpayers $1.3 billion in charge of his financial team.
Lyin’ Ted, Cryin’ Glenn, Snarly Carly, and now Silverado Neil!
While this might be factual, folks have to consider that Roger Stone is as pro-Trump as Lanny Davis is pro-Hillary. Both will say anything (lie) to denigrate opponents of their candidates.

BUSH BRO JOINS CRUZ...

Cruz is on the way down. His campaign will implode very quickly now. Doesn’t mean he’s a bad man. Just means that the Bush Team is taking over his campaign. They want to use him. And he was foolish to think that any good would come of it.
An insult? I must have missed it. But regardless, he’s being handled and led by the Bush team right now. After he falls, he has a chance to make things right.
Trump is paying for his own campaign. Nice try.
Do you really want a food fight here?
Ted Bush??
Duke being HIRED by Trump as part of his financial team would indeed make Trump a racist.
If you're going to argue by analogy, you have to actually make the analogy.
