The Unauthorized Biography of George Bush - Is it for Real?
I thought "The Unauthorized Biography of George Bush" was generally considered a good reference. It looks like it has been reproduced on several websites. I wanted to ask permission to give it a facelift (CSS, perhaps a few technical features) and put it on my website.

However, it appears that the e-mail address at http://www.tarpley.net/ isn't functioning. I also tried two e-mail addresses at http://www.davidicke.com/ with similar results.

Does anyone know what's going on? Is this really a reputable book, or is just something that's being hawked by a fly-by-night operation???

2. I encountered the same problems tonight
That's really wierd.
I did a search for Bush family history.
Some sites allowed me in but a majority did not.
I wonder if they are being censored.
That's pretty scary.
It's also wierd that I've been trying to look at the same sites you have!

9. Looks like they're up and running again
I just Googled "Bush family history" without the quotes, and the first seven, all of them disparaging of the Bushes, were working.

3. I've been looking for something reputable
to reference to in arguments about it. They say there are government documents and old newspaper articles about it but I can seem to find any links to them.

7. I can access the sites...
i just can't seem to e-mail the webmasters. The sites look a bit amateurish, too. That doesn't prove anything, but it sometimes makes you wonder.

I wanted to ask permission to copy the book, use cascading style sheets to give it a facelift, and perhaps add some additional features.

I'll read "Fortunate Son" when I get a chance. I'm just interested in the "Unauthorized Biography of George Bush" because it looks like the author allows others to copy it.
