"Harry Potter (D-Oz)" Neil "Silverado" BU$H is selling out America to the Chinese! Tue Nov 25, 8:29 PM ET By Jeff Franks HOUSTON (Reuters) - Neil Bush, younger brother of President Bush, detailed lucrative business deals and admitted to engaging in love romps with women in Asia in a deposition taken in March as part of his divorce According to legal documents disclosed on Tuesday, Sharon Bush's lawyers questioned Neil Bush closely about the deals, especially a contract with Grace Semiconductor Manufacturing Corp., a firm backed by Jiang Mianheng, the son of former Chinese President Jiang Zemin, that would pay him $2 million in stock over five years. Was Iraq ever a threat 959I agree. There is a perception by those with a singular focus on Bush that those who support his mid-east policies are as obssesively... Marshall Davis Brown, lawyer for Sharon Bush, expressed bewilderment at why Grace would want Bush and at such a high price since he knew little about the semiconductor business. "You have absolutely no educational background in semiconductors do you?" asked Brown. "That's correct," Bush, 48, responded in the March 4 deposition, a transcript of which was read by Reuters after the Houston Chronicle first reported on the documents. "And you have absolutely over the last 10, 15, 20 years not a lot of demonstrable business experience that would bring about a company investing $2 million in you?" "I personally would object to the buttumption that they're investing $2 million in me," said Bush, who went on to explain that he knew a lot about business and had been working in Asia for years. Bush, who inked the Grace deal in August 2002, said he had not yet received any stock from the company, which built a plant in Shanghai that began production in September. He is supposed to consult for the company and be on the board of directors, he said. He said he joined the Grace board at the request of Winston Wong, a co-founder of the company and the son of Wang Yung-ching, the chairman of Taiwan's largest business group, Formosa Plastics Corp. Bush never mentioned Jiang Mianheng in the deposition.... -- "How many American casualties is Saddam worth? The answer is not very damned many." - privates Cheney, Seattle, August 1992 Donald Rumsfeld: "If you're asking if there's a direct link between 9-11 and Iraq, the answer is no." On May 01, 2003, President Bush declared that, "Major combat operations in Iraq have ended." "I'm the commander -- see, I don't need to explain -- I do not need to explain why I say things. That's the interesting thing about being the president. Maybe somebody needs to explain to me why they say something, but I don't feel like I owe anybody an explanation. " - George Bush, Washington Post, 11-19-02
