GWB: That unique combination of incompetence and arrogance

Edited on Fri Feb-08-08 08:07 AM by Stoic

His daddy was just incompetent. I guess he got his arrogance from his mommy.

4. Arrogance from mommy via biological grandfather Aleister Crowley?

Thus it was that four individuals came together: Frank Harris, Nellie O'Hara, Pauline Pierce, and Aleister Crowley. Anyone who has studied Crowley's life will understand that what happened next was, in a sense, inevitable.

--snip--

Pauline returned to America in early October of 1924. On June 8, 1925, she gave birth to a girl named Barbara. Barbara Pierce married George H.W. Bush, who eventually became the 41st President of the United States.

Is Aleister Crowley the father of Barbara Bush? Even she may not know for certain; indeed, I have no way of knowing whether she has ever been told that this possibility exists. However, more than one person has noted the resemblance -- and this resemblance is not just physical. Many will recall the former First Lady's haughty and thoughtless remarks in the aftermath of the Katrina disaster. Those "in the know" were reminded of Aleister Crowley's similar reaction to the loss of life which occurred during the ascent of Kangchanjunga, an expedition he commanded: "This is precisely the sort of thing with which I have no sympathy whatsoever."

Tinfoil hat worthy, yes, but intriguing. She does look like him--photos at the link.

7. Just a bit of trivia to go along with that..

Jimmy Page (of Led Zeppelin) is fascinated with Aleister Crowley and bought his estate.

We are now into the 4th generation of the degenerate criminal and dysfunctional Bush/Pierce family. When does it end?

6. on tuesday I had a medical procedure done

(nothing serious, just a screening) it required anesthesia

when I woke up, the nurse asked me a couple of questions, like did I know where I was and what day it was... jsut to make sure I was coherent she explained

I asked her if she was going to ask me who the president was

she said "ok - who's the president"

I smirked and said "the village idiot"

with a hearty laugh the informed me I had passed
