Bush Acting Like Stalin in 1953, Claiming A Foreign Cabal Is Out get Him

[IChing]

By Greg Szymanski

Chicago investigator and ‘judge buster,’ Sherman Skolnick, who once brought a former Illinois governor to his knees, putting him behind bars, is up to his old truth-telling tricks again, saying he’s received credible reports President Bush is on the verge of a psychiatric collapse over U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald’s pending indictments.

Skolnick said Bush has been ranting and raving in the White House, claiming “the Jews, the French and a foreign cabal” are conspiring to take down his Presidency and are behind the well-known and imminent Fitzgerald indictments.

“If anybody remembers Stalin back in 1953, Bush sounds just like him,” said Skolnick this week from his Chicago home. “He’s on a sinking ship and he knows it. I’ve gotten reports that when the indictment comes down he may leave the country and go to Alice Springs, Australia, a well-known CIA base of operation.”

“He won’t go easy, that’s for sure. And the indictments, including Bush and Cheney, could come down as early as this week and perhaps Wednesday,” said Skolnick. “Reports are Bush also has made a last ditch effort to go to the Supreme Court to have the indictments quashed but only two of the nine high court justices were in favor of listening to his story.”

Skolnick claims politicians from all corners of the country are “reading the writing on the wall,’ trying to distance themselves from Bush, who basically is being left to drown in his own pool of political.

Skolnick claims all bets are off as to Bush’s successor, but he added the indictments will tarnish the administration so badly that “the ninth man down in the chain of command,” being an obscure position in the agriculture department, could possibly wind up as President after the political dust finally settles.

1. He's partly right

It's coming from within! :rofl:

[HereSince1628]

2. The CIA has a base in Alice Springs?

That's so well known I've never heard of it. And I know about "the Hill" out in Warrenton Va.

6. Pine Gap

Pine Gap is the top secret American underground base located near Alice Springs in the Northern Territory of the land down under, officially known as the Joint Defense Space Research Facility. It was built in 1968 officially to share program data with the Australians.

Renowned intelligence defector Victor Marchetti, who served in the CIA director's office from 1966 to 1969, now acknowledges that he co-authored the secret agreement between the agency and the Australian Department of Defence on the establishment of the Pine Gap station. Officially, it monitors spy satellites and intercepts and decodes broadcast communications between foreign powers unfriendly to the US. One of Pine Gap's important functions is to monitor geostationary satellites for wide ranging information on enemy telemetry, radar emissions and telecommunications.

Opposition from the Australians to the base grew as its nature as an espionage facility outside of Australian control became clear. In his book Crimes of Patriots (New York: W.W. Norton & Co, 1987), author Jonathan Kwitny demonstrates that covert manipulation led to the early end (in Australia of the administration of Labor Party prime minister Gough Whitlam because of his opposition to Pine Gap. Casolaro noted with aggravation Kwitny's inability to see the tentacles of the Octopus in the affair. "It didn't take many people to design the apparatus that would insure the renewal of the lease for the Pine Gap installation near Alice Springs, Australia," Casolaro wrote.

13. Ah, I remember reading about the JDSRF and its intercept work

I didn't realize it was an agency base.

9. Enlighten me!

I live (fairly) close to Warrenton, and I've heard no talk of such a thing, althought CIA folks flock here like geese.

[HereSince1628]

12. If I did, they'd shoot me...

But its northwest of Warrenton and called the Hill for obvious reasons. Not to be confused with "The Farm" over at Vint Hill.

[notadmblnd]

3. They laughed it off and poo pooed when Hillary mentioned VRWC

Thats what should be done to bush now. According to Mepubs at the time, there is no such thing as conspiracies.

[Spinzonner]

4. We really get a lot more credit than we deserve

not that we wouldn't be proud to do it

:sarcasm:

[Zen Democrat]

5. Bush reminded me of Stalin when I read that the WH staff is afraid

to give him bad news.

[Greeby]

7. I'd have imagined the last place Bush would wanna be

Is around the CIA. Wouldn't be surprised if some of the agents down there thought: "Payback time"

[cassiepriam]

15. Yes, why would he go to a CIA camp? Doesn't he see them as the enemy?

that part did not make sense.

[drb]

8. Unfortunately, the "Arctic Beacon" also talks about UFO's....

...not that I wouldn't want to believe every syllable of this article, mind you....

[IChing]

11. I agree, but Sherman Skolnick's works have not been disproved

especially with court system. The quotes came from him,
I know the artic beacon reputation, however
, I have no doubts that * 's lawyers are looking into all angles to get him out of trouble and these angles discribe sound very plausible.

[Sanity Claws]

10. I hope it's true

but I'm afraid it's nothing but guess work. Has anyone seen any support for any of the things the author said, like * going to the Supremes, or trying to get Fitz fired.

[cassiepriam]

14. If this is true it is very scary for the country.

A psychotic, paranoid, and very angry president does not bode well
for our safety.

16. Arm-twisting at the Supreme Court

whoa--

“He won’t go easy, that’s for sure. And the indictments, including Bush and Cheney, could come down as early as this week and perhaps Wednesday,” said Skolnick. “Reports are Bush also has made a last ditch effort to go to the Supreme Court to have the indictments quashed but only two of the nine high court justices were in favor of listening to his story.”

[CatholicEdHead]

17. Thomas and Scalia?

Roberts and Scalia?
Roberts and Thomas?

[AnnieBW]

18. Nixon and "Jewish Conspiracy"

Am I misremembering, or did Nixon have a rant on the infamous tapes about the "Jewish Conspiracy", too? Stewart is right - * is turning into Nixon! :D

Seriously, * is in Sharon's back pocket. Why would "the Jews" want to go after him after all he and his Fundie ilk have done for the Israelis?

[LiberalEsto]

19. Why would he go to a CIA base

when the CIA is basically furious with him and his administration for leaking the name of one of their own undercover agents?
Doesn't make sense.

[IChing]

20. I think it was hyperbole, besides austrialians would leave him

in the billabong.


Billabong is an Australian English word used to refer to an oxbow lake, a stagnant pool of water attached to a waterway. Billabongs are usually formed when the path of a creek or river changes, leaving the former branch with a dead end. The word is derived from two Aboriginal words: "billa" meaning "creek" and "bong" meaning "dead".

[LiberalEsto]

23. so B*sh is up the billa

and his popularity is bong?

[IChing]

24. LOL .....bong....he said bong.....dead....good one

:) :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

[Fozzledick]

21. So what else is new?

"Those who cast the votes determine nothing;
those who count the votes determine everything."

[tsuki]

22. "the Jews, the French and a foreign cabal" Why the Jews?

I understand the French - that's NOLA, and the foreign cabal - that's the working American (work being a foreign concept to Bush), but the Jews? Is that just his racist KKK background?

[longship]

25. Szymanski == Rubbish.

He and Flocco make their stuff out of whole cloth.

[dr.zoidberg]

26. Bah, a bullshit comparison.

Bush is nowhere near a s paranoid as Stalin. besides, i think Stalin had a better grip on what to do than Bush. Bush is going to be lost without Rove. You can count on it.

[StellaBlue]

27. Boy, the man Just. Doesn't. Get. It.

He IS the foreign cabal.
