"The Swiss authorities say more than $100m of drugs money was deposited in Swiss banks by the brother of the former Mexican president, Carlos Salinas.

"They are confiscating the money, which they believe was part of a much larger amount paid to Raul Salinas for helping Mexican and Colombian drugs cartels during his brother's six-year term ending in 1994" (http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/197773.stm).

The fact remains that these politically connected thugs and drug dealers were all 'amigos' of the Bushes and 'The Smart One' was present at Carlos's festive gala and a host at Mexican homes used by drug dealers.

Again, the old expression from Mexico comes into play: "Tell me who you side with and I will tell you who you are."

Summary

"A family that 'preys' together stays together."

Florida, since the overthrow of the dictator Batista by Fidel Castro of Cuba in 1959, has always been an open sore for Latin American dictators, terrorists, drug dealers, crooks, swindlers, CIA operatives and Mafia kingpins. But they could never have become entrenched as they are now without the backing of enabling and crooked politicians like Jeb Bush and his crime family.

The long and winding stench of monstrous murderers, terrorists, anti-Castro exiles, former Nicaraguan Contras, CIA terrorists, drug cartels and Mafia Kingpins all are part of the Jeb Bush legacy and, indeed, the Bush Crime Family birthright. It's all of the family, as they say.

If 'Jeb the Smart One' runs, the corporate press will trickle at the mouth over his scandals involving his wife's profligacy, his daughter's drug addiction and his son's arrest for intoxication and assaulting a police officer but they will never reveal the shadowy world of Bush terrorism, drug dealing, looting of the US treasury, the financing of terrorism for profit, the role of the CIA in undermining America nor the Bush Crime Family's connections with Mafia criminals.

The truth of the matter is that Jeb 'the Smart One' Bush is simply one Bush in the long gaggle of the Bush's sinister legacy and destruction of America.

We cannot accept this!

The sad part is, as I wrote regarding Hillary Clinton, within the US one-party system with two wings, there are no good choices for president of the United States in 2016 (http://www.opednews.com/articles/Ready-for-Hillary-PAC-A-p-by-Danny-Weil-2016-Election_2016-Elections_2016-Presidential-Race_Adhd-141118-368.html).

The best activists and progressive-minded people can do is to organize on a grass-roots level within their communities over ending inequality, ending plutocracy, ending corporatocracy, ending capitalism, ending racism, ending sexism, ending gender discrimination, ending war, fighting for environmental protection, creating an organized progressive media and laying the groundwork for a moral leveling and underpinning of a more sane, rational and enhanced society.

It's time to clean out the Augean Stables of Empire, time to subdue the canine instincts of the one-percent sociopaths, like 'Jeb the Smart One' and his family, who are practiced in deception and dishonesty; it is the time to un-grease ourselves from the soiled aprons strings of despair, victimization and unfettered crime.

It is either this, or we witness the destruction of American and exist in the Potter's Field of a crumbling, fascist Empire.
