Prescott Bush

[Jim Devine <jdevine03@xxxxxxxxx>]

in the GUARDIAN, Sidney Blumenthal writes
> In 1950, the treasurer of Planned Parenthood, a liberal-minded
Republican banker, tainted by this association, was narrowly defeated
in a race for the US Senate. His name was Prescott Bush, father of
George HW Bush and grandfather of George W, and he won election two
years later.<

(1) boy, how the bushbabies have changed over the generations on the
birth control issue!

(2) this "liberal-minded" guy was in bed with the Nazis?
