no, they said libera...... oh wait- yep!
Mike Pence would suffice
Bush Sr?
Advice from enemies. The CIA front known as the WP can FOAD.
I always felt like Bush was one several big mistakes that Regan made during his presidency.
Oh how I miss the Gipper!
Hillary is well-rested and ready to be one heartbeat away from taking over as President, should that need arise.
Nope, it didn't work for Reagan , but more importantly it's not the MAGA road to victory. 🙂👍
Richard Schweiker? I’ve never heard of him. I’m 53.
Under the same philosophy, he picked GHWB in 1980, and look where that took us.
That went well......Man, how we suffered during the carter years.
Remember waiting in line for gas? No Christmas lights and that stupid sweater speach? Billy beer? The hunting trip (that was great)!
Today it's lies. They lie about the price of groceries. I hear from people shopping all the time how bad it is. Eggs $8 a dozen. The lies, the economy. Lying about covid.
If biden wins again it'll be worse than now.
Bush badmouthed Reagan's economic plan as VooDoo economics.
You would have to be brain dead to think Reagan picked Bush.
If it wasn't for Reagan Bush would have been sucking hind tit trying to destroy him.
What about a liberal who ‘chose a conservative’ then you find out the ‘chosen person’ was a conservative liberal?
What I can see is why the Washington Post is going under...
Reagan made the same mistake picking Bush for 1980. He could have won with Donald Duck as his VP. The subsequent Bush Presidency came back to bite conservative Patriots later. May have helped in Reagan’s demise.
Well it comes as no surprise that the communist post wants Trump to pick someone evil to be his running mate.
They wanted him to pick Gerald Ford.
This was probably significant in 1976. Now? Not seeing it.
Well done, I think my heart stopped for a second when I saw that forgotten name, I’m worried enough at the current names being tossed around.
So.
If you see American politics as a minor struggle of the intelligence community against those who believe in the rule of law, transparent government, sane foreign policy, etc....then this starts to look a lot different.
Schweicker was very active in the Church Committee. He was (rightly) critical of the CIA. Among the other things that the Church Committee uncovered, was MK Ultra, the CIA’s highly illegal mind control program. (Which included acting on US soil, which, as we all know, is “illegal”).
This is indisputable. MK Ultra is a fact. The CIA after that says it reformed. That “fact” however is highly disputable....
Now...so Reagan picks an anti-CIA guy, and is running against Hoover’s b*&#( on the Warren Commission, Gerald Ford.
This is nothing less than a salvo against the Intelligence Industrial Complex.
Reagan loses at the Convention.
Then, he picks the ultimate Intelligence Industrial Complex insider, Bush in 80.
Perhaps Reagan acquiesced? Perhaps Reagan wanted to still try to go to war against the CIA, and thought he could do so even with Bush on the inside? Who knows?
Then March 81 comes. We all know what happened then. What is not often talked about is that Hinckley’s dad was a big donor of a Tulsa-based ministry which was absolutely a CIA front. And that Hinckley, Jr. was under the care of a psychiatrist. All of this sounds a lot like....you guessed it....MK Ultra.
Not saying it WAS MK Ultra....I’m just saying it sounded like MK Ultra.
Then there is Haig’s (”I’m in charge here!”) role on that day/days preceding. This seems to me to be ambiguous....because the facts are not clear. But there is some evidence that Haig was on the outs with the intel community....and perhaps had been so since the Nixon White House.
So was it Reagan and Haig (and Schweicker who was quietly serving at HHS) against Bush and others? (Like Richard Helms, etc.)
I don’t know. I’m just saying that once you start to view the world through the lense of Intelligence Industrial Complex v. Rule of Law types, the world starts to look very different.
Oh, and let’s don’t even get into Squeaky Fromme (Manson associate) taking a shot at Ford. Squeaky wasn’t a “deranged loner”. Rather, she was quite possibly, another MK Ultra experiment following orders. Manson himself, some have claimed, was also an MK Ultra experiment. Oh, and Sara Jane Moore, was absolutely an FBI informant. So you have an FBI informant attempting to assassinate a President....who was the FBI’s main guy on the Warren Commission! WTF?!
Oh, maybe we can get the Washington Post on this story!
Oh, wait.
Bob Woodward, it turns out, before becoming the Woodward who so courageously took out Nixon...was....a Naval Intelligence Officer who had classified credentials but no reporting experience. Almost makes you think that the Washington Post was a CIA front (or largely infiltrated by the CIA).
Final point....Arthur Bremer and Mark David Chapman were also under the care of psychiatrists. Oh, and the head of MK Ultra visited Jack Ruby in prison....before Ruby sort of went bonkers.
I’m not saying all these thigns are tied together. I’m not a conspiracy theorist.
I’m just pointing out some thigns that the media (MSM) doesn’t talk about much.
And I will always have a soft spot for Schweicker, notwithstanding the fact that he was a lib, because he tried to help Reagan in 76 :)
