Sorry if this was already covered but a quick search of DU came up empty. May have been overlooked with all the 'well-wishing' over Cheney.

Prescott was the Bush brother in charge of the BFEE China crew.

Prescott S. Bush Jr., brother and uncle of U.S. presidents, dies at 87

Prescott S. Bush Jr., 87, a retired insurance executive who was the older brother of one U.S. president and an uncle of another, died June 23 at his home in Hingham, Mass. The death was confirmed by his son James, but no cause was given.

Mr. Bush was a partner in the New York insurance brokerage firm Johnson & Higgins for more than 30 years before founding a nonprofit group that promoted investment and trade with China.

He was mired in legal trouble during the early 1990s when a Japanese business he was connected to was accused of being part of an international crime ring.

1. I'm sure Adolph will be glad to open the doors

to hell for his good buddy and benefactor Prescott.

3. This was Prescott Jr. Prescott Sr was the senator who financed Hitler.

The dangerously inbred Bush family could use a fresh name infusion.

[blm]

10. Right - Prescott Jr helped Poppy and Jackson Stephens further global fascist agenda with China

supplying cheap goods for All American stores like WalMart.

The freepers and teabaggers worry about socialistic measures that help their family and neighbors, while ignoring the fascist agenda that lowers their paychecks, pollutes their waterways, sickens their children, and closes library and hospital doors to them and their neighbors.

4. It would have been his dad that worked the banks during WWII, I think. n/t

2. I didn't know anything about him. Hm. n/t

7. Kind of the Neil or Marvin of that generation. Flying mostly under the radar.

[blm]

11. Prescott helped Poppy set up China as the main supplier of WalMart and big box stores

Poppy Bush and Jackson Stephens really put the fascist agenda on the express track in the late 70s and bringing Chinese industrialists into the mix assured that America's labor force would turn to a 'service' class. Poppy had Prescott in China for many years keeping the tracks greased. He headed the China-US Chamber of Commerce.

And freepers think some of their sick neighbors getting access to healthcare will ruin this nation. Sheesh.

5. Every time a member of that criminal family dies

An angel has an orgasm.

8. They say don't speak ill of the dead, so I won't

because I have nothing that isn't 'ill' to say about this 'person'.

9. My condolences to his family.

I'll just leave it at that.

[Iggo]

12. Never heard of him.

[blm]

14. Staying on the down low helped enormously while he sold out our economic future to Chinese cronies

to help further BushInc's global fascist agenda.

15. So they do have an end date after all

Thank god for small favors.
