Fly me to the Moonies

Some of us know Presidential Brother Neil Bush as the Silverado Kid and he fits well into the Bush family tradition of shady dealings and shady associates.

But maybe Neil doesn’t think he cost us enough with the Savings and Loan failure that he saddled the taxpayers with – that’s only pigs knuckles – what every Bush Republican wants is Pork, gigantic Pork, Jurassic Pork. Heard about the bridge to nowhere? Get ready for the tunnel to Siberia.

Neil Bush is currently in Manila on a 100 day tour with the Reverend Sun Myung Moon, owner of such Liberal Media outlets as the Washington Times. Readers of the Crooks and Liars Blog know that the Bush family has long supported the Moonies. Barbara and George H.W. Bush have long attended Moon's lucrative and stately peace festivities, which stress the Reverend's mastery of family values as God's path to world peace. The Reverend's movement controls more than $300 million in commercial, political and cultural enterprises. The path is paved with gold, it seems. It's unclear whether Neil Bush, who played at family values with prostitutes in Asia, has any reliable roadmap to God of his own.

They’re all willing and eager to pass the pork though. Neil has been seen in Latvia with Latvia with Boris Berezovsky, a fugitive Russian tycoon indicted in Russia in connection with a $13 million fraud case and has lobbied Congress for Scientology and its attack on scientific Psychology. The Reverend Moon is advocating a tunnel linking Alaska and Russia, with help from the chairman of the Arizona GOP.

One can only speculate as to whether God’s path to world Peace will soon have a bypass through Alaska, built on now worthless land to be purchased by friends and family, but who would be surprised?
