Killer Bush, Sr., Cline, HINCKLEY, Halper, Nancy's Astrology

"While I was never certain that Joan's astrological
advice was helping
to protect Ronnie, the fact is that nothing like March
30 ever happened again," Nancy wrote ...

A former deputy director of the spy agency and cofounder of the
CSIS, Cline organized "Agents for Bush" to boost the former CIA director's 1980 presidential run and placed
his son-in-law as Bush's research chief. Halpor rolled over into the Reagan- Bush campaign when the Great
Communicator chose Bush as his running mate at the urging of his campaign manager, William Casey, a close
friend of Bush's father.

George's father, former Connecticut and Skull and Bones man Prescott Bush, was in Army Intelligence
during World War I and co-founded with Casey a right-wing think tank in 1962,
the National Strategy Information Center, which used clandestine CIA funds
to publish anti- left tracts. When Bush was elected president in 1988,
the center had a major policy input into the new administration"
(The Immaculate Deception: The Bush Crime Family Exposed, Russell S. Bowen, p.99-100)

well, guess who else besides the old school CIA was pushing for Bush and not the
Gipper in the primaries? you got it right. Texas oilman John Hinckley, Sr who not only
funded Bush but also the Connally campaign to stop Reagan:

http://www.geocities.com/northstarzone/HINCKLEY.html

"Although John Hinckley Sr. was characterized repeatedly by the national news media as
"a strong supporter of President Reagan," no record has been found of contributions to Reagan.

To the contrary, in addition to money given to Bush, a fellow Texas oilman, as far back as 1970,
 the senior Hinckley raised funds for Bush's unsuccessful campaign to wrest the nomination from Reagan.

Furthermore, he and Scott Hinckley separately contributed to John Connally in late 1979
when Connally was leading the campaign to stop Reagan from gaining the 1980 presidential nomination.
 The Bush and Hinckley families, of course, would do better under a Bush presidency
than it would under President Reagan." (unquote)
the reason for blocking Reagan was his proposed opposition to tax breaks for the oil
industry. this is why Connally was raising money from texas oilmen like Hinckley Sr. to
block reagan despite Hinckley's contributions to Bush tracing back to 1970:

"In 1980, Hinckley Sr. was a Texas oilman who, the records show, strove mightily to get
fellow Texas oilman George H.W. Bush the Republican nomination for president.
 The Bushes and the Hinckleys were frequent dinner companions.

But far beyond their social connection, neither Bush nor Hinckley wanted Ronald Reagan
to become president, because Reagan was opposed to tax breaks for the oil industry to
which Bush, Hinckley and other Texans were highly dependent.

The effort to make Bush Sr. president in 1980 failed; but he and his friend and backer
Hinckley Sr. got the next best thing ñ the "heartbeat away from the presidency" office of
Vice-President of the United States." (unquote)
don't worry kids, the story gets even more interesting. not only did judy woodruff hear
a "secret service shot" that got suppressed by the media but so did this Houston Post
story the next day. Scott Hinckley, brother of the patsy, was to dine with the Vice
President's son on March 31 supposedly a mere coincidence for the idiot's in the
audience (warning 2 imperial dabait: this page is explicitly marked as for educational

HOUSTON
The family of the man charged with trying to assassinate President Reagan is acquainted
with the family of Vice President George Bush and had made large  contributions to his
political campaign, the Houston Post reported today.

Scott Hinckley, brother of John W. Hinckley Jr., who allegedly shot Reagan, was to have
dined tonight in Denver at the home of Neil Bush, one of the vice president's sons.
The newspaper said in a copyright story, Scott Hinckley, brother of John W. Hinckley Jr.,
who allegedly shot Reagan, was to have dined tonight in Denver at the home of Neil
Bush, one of the vice president's sons.

The newspaper said it was unable to reach Scott Hinckley, vice president of his father's
Denver-based firm, Vanderbilt Energy Corp., for comment. Neil Bush lives in Denver,
where he works for Standard Oil Co. of Indiana.

In 1978, Neil served as campaign manager for his brother, George W. Bush, the vice
president's oldest son, who made an unsuccessful bid for Congress.
Neil lived in Lubbock throughout much of 1978, where John Hinckley lived from 1974 through 1980.

On Monday, Neil Bush said he did not know if he had ever met 25-year-old John Hinckley.

From what I know and I've heard, they (the Hinckleys) are a very nice family and have
given a lot of money to the Bush campaign." SHARON BUSH

"I have no idea," he said. "I don't recognize any pictures of him.
I just wish I could see a better picture of him.

Sharon Bush, Neil's wife, said Scott Hinckley was coming to their house
as a date of a girl friend of hers.

"I don't even know the brother. From what I know and I've heard, they (the Hinckleys)
are a very nice family and have given a lot of money to the Bush campaign. I understand
he was just the renegade brother in the family. They must feel awful," she said.
The dinner was canceled, she added.

George W. Bush said he was unsure whether he had met John W. Hinckley.

Not for commercial use.
Solely to be used for the educational purposes of research and open discussion." unquote

another "coincidence" regards the fact that the brother of the patsy was informed on the
morning of March 30 that US dep't of energy auditors of his oil company in denver were
considering $2 million in penalties for pricing violations akin to the recent halliburton  fiasco:

http://www.tomflocco.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=28


"A couple months later, Hinckley Jr. shot Reagan, and Bush Sr. very nearly did become
president at that time, after all. Curiously, only one time was
it announced on the news about the connections between the Bush and Hinckley families:
An almost  bewildered John Chancellor on NBC Nightly News reported "the bizarre  coincidence"
that Vice President Bush's son, Neil, and Scott Hinckley had dinner plans for March  31, 1981
 -- now cancelled, of course.
†
On the morning of March 30 [the day of the Reagan assassination attempt by John Hinckley, Jr.],
three representatives of the U.S. Department of Energy told Scott Hinckley, John Hinckley Jr.'s
older brother and Vanderbilt's vice  president of operations, that auditors had uncovered evidence of
pricing violations on crude oil sold by the company from 1977 through 1980.
The auditors announced  that the federal government was considering a penalty of two million dollars.
[This, on the same day that his brother John--the youngest son of Vice President Bush's close friend-
-attempted the assassination!] Scott Hinckley reportedly requested
"several hours to come up with an explanation" of the serious overcharges. The meeting
ended a little more than an hour before John Hinckly, Jr. shot President Reagan."
(unquote)

there's more for the serious student of history but that's the nutshell. in '76 as CIA director,
Bush's big job was to block Reagan in the primaries against Ford. bla bla bla.

in the wake of the shooting, we all know nancy reagan resorts not to the will of god for
advice but astrology to prevent the VP from succeeding on a second try
(even though he really didn't need to kill the Gipper to take over which he had already done):

For the first happy months after the landslide election, Nancy apparently had little or no
contact with Quigley. After all, she was blissfully content,
she'd won the keys to the kingdom, and there was nothing more for fortune-telling to offer her.

http://www.parascope.com/articles/0497/reagan02.htm

"But all that changed on March 30, 1981. John Hinckley, Jr.'s assassination attempt nearly drew the curtains on the Reagan presidency. The failed assassination turned Nancy Reagan's world upside down. At any given time,
sinister forces could take her husband's life and her precious dream away -
- and she was completely helpless to stop it.

Unless the stars might have their say.

Nancy says that shortly after the shooting she spoke to Griffin, who said he had just
spoken to Quigley. She had told him Reagan's chart indicated that March 30 was a terrible day,
and she could have warned him that his life was in danger.
Immediately Nancy called Quigley to confirm this. It was at that moment that Quigley went from
being a casual acquaintance who had helped on the campaign to being an indispensable shadow guardian
of Ronald Reagan's destiny.

Once he recovered from the gunshot wounds, Nancy was stricken with fear every time Reagan left the house.
Heightening her dread was the infamous "zero-year" curse, the 20-year cycle of every president since William
Harrison dying in office after being elected in a year ending with zero -- a macabre pattern given much
discussion in the wake of the Hinckley shooting. Nancy saw the assassination attempt as a stern lesson,
as though she personally had failed to take measures that could have protected Ronnie.

She resolved never to leave her husband exposed to such "foreseeable" hazards again.
 
"After March 30, 1981, I wasn't about to take any chances," Nancy wrote in her memoirs.
 "Very few people can understand what it's like to have your husband shot at and almost die,
and then have him exposed all the time to enormous crowds, tens of thousands of people,
any one of whom might be a lunatic with a gun. I have been criticized and ridiculed for turning to astrology,
 but after a while I reached the point where I didn't care.
I was doing everything I could think of to protect my husband and keep him alive."

She took to calling Quigley once or twice a month with the details of Ron's schedule,
accepting all of the astrologer's recommendations for fine-tuning its timing. Nancy
turned these instructions over to Michael Deaver, a close friend of the Reagans who
reportedly never grumbled at these peculiar orders and did a remarkably good job of
keeping their source unknown. Suspicious that the White House switchboard operators
might eavesdrop, Nancy had private phone lines installed at the executive mansion and
at Camp David, expressly for making calls to Quigley.

According to former officials, the FBI and CIA are concerned to this day that the KGB may
have tapped Nancy's conversations with Quigley, gathering extensive intelligence on the
president's forthcoming actions. To date, no proof of this possibility has publicly surfaced.

Quigley's influence over Reagan's schedule was so secret, at first not even he knew
about it. Nancy was implementing Quigley's advice without telling Ron for several  months,
 explaining in her book that it was difficult to bring up the subject to him.
She procrastinated about telling him until one day when he walked in during a phone session with Quigley.
When the president asked who she was talking to, Nancy broke down and revealed her interventions with his schedule.
Reagan was unfazed by the news.

"If it makes you feel better, go ahead and do it," he told her, according to Nancy's memoirs.
"But be careful. It might look a little odd if it ever came out."

As if through some divination of his own, Reagan was right about that.
Michael Deaver's successor as astrological facilitator, Donald Regan, would eventually blow
Quigley's cover. Regan was not so dutifully acquiescent as Deaver when it came to indulging Nancy's scheduling modifications. Regan did not get along with her personally, and considered it extraordinarily
demeaning for the presidency to cater to something as silly as astrology.

After being fired from his chief of staff post, Regan lashed back with a tell-all memoir,
which revealed -- among other things -- the truth about Nancy's astrologer.

The revelation stirred a media frenzy that painted the already scandal-embroiled White House
as a complete looney bin. Nancy was outraged that this secret had been "betrayed" by Regan,
but he argued that he had no choice but to reveal the truth.
"My description of White House life in my period as chief of staff would have made little
sense if I omitted it," Regan wrote in a commentary on Nancy's own memoirs. "All those
schedule changes, when laid out in black on white pages, would have looked downright
senseless in the absence of an explanation."

Months later Nancy made her only extensive public statement on the Quigley affair, in
the pages of My Turn. There she portrayed herself as the scared, vulnerable wife of a
man whose life was in constant jeopardy. She tried to minimize the scope of Quigley's
influence, and disingenuously laughed off her belief in astrology as a mere affectation, a
"crutch" that helped her cope with severe anxiety.

"While I was never certain that Joan's astrological advice was helping to protect Ronnie,
the fact is that nothing like March 30 ever happened again," Nancy wrote, thoroughly
hedging her bets. "Was astrology one of those reasons?

I don't really believe it was, but I don't really believe it wasn't. But I know this: It
didn't hurt, and I'm not sorry I did it."

In response to the critics who decried Quigley's advice as an atrocity and branded the
First Lady a superstitious laughing-stock, Nancy offered the following rebuttal:

"It didn't seem to matter that nothing other than Ronnie's schedule was affected by
astrology. Or that tens of millions of Americans really believed in astrology. Or that
almost every newspaper that ridiculed me for taking astrology seriously also featured a
daily horoscope column."

carl sagan, respected scientist, had this to say:

"Emerging from a particularly credulous Southern California culture, Nancy and Ronald
Reagan relied on an astrologer in private and public matters--unknown to the voting
public.† Some portion of the decision-making that influences the future of our
civilization is plainly in the hands of charlatans."

the Gipper was a lunatic long before he got alzheimer's...the Great Communicator w da
stars was exactly what we needed at the time, baby. i think it's worse to serve as
official cover for crap pretending that it was what it wasn't and even more dishonoring to da truth.

donal regan blew the cover. every decision was cleared w the psychic in san fran. no
wonder the bushes had to eliminate this obstacle to public decisionmaking relegating
the reagans to decisions about "the president's" schedule only:

""Virtually every major move and decision the Reagans made during my time as White
House Chief of Staff was cleared in advance with a woman in San Francisco who drew up
horoscopes to make certain that the planets were in a favorable alignment for the
enterprise."
