So being run by a bunch of Nazi collaboraters is okay? Sure, Bush probebly isn't a Nazi (at least not openly) but he surely that should have spelled the end of his poltical career right?

Then I guess you forgotten that Bush's father a WW2 veteran fought against the Axis powers which includes Germany, Japan and Italy? Since the evidence of the Bushes were collaborators of Nazi Germany, you think the media be all over it would you?
You have voted NephraTari for the Way Above Top Secret award. You have one more vote left for this month.
“Bush - Nazi Dealings Continued Until 1951” - Federal Documents
Snip~~
After the seizures in late 1942 of five U.S. enterprises he managed on behalf of Nazi industrialist Fritz Thyssen, Prescott Bush, the grandfather of President George W. Bush, failed to divest himself of more than a dozen "enemy national" relationships that continued until as late as 1951, newly-discovered U.S. government documents reveal.
Furthermore, the records show that Bush and his colleagues routinely attempted to conceal their activities from government investigators.
Bush's partners in the secret web of Thyssen-controlled ventures included former New York Governor W. Averell Harriman and his younger brother, E. Roland Harriman. Their quarter-century of Nazi financial transactions, from 1924-1951, were conducted by the New York private banking firm, Brown Brothers Harriman.
The White House did not return phone calls seeking comment.
Denial and Deceit
Snip~~
In yet another attempt to mislead investigators, Livense said that $240,000 in banknotes in a safe deposit box at Underwriters Trust Co. in New York had been given to him by another UBC-Thyssen associate, H.J. Kouwenhoven, managing director of Thyssen's Dutch bank and a director of the August Thyssen Bank in Berlin. August Thyssen was Fritz's father.
The government report shows that Livense first neglected to report the $240,000, then claimed that it had been given to him as a gift by Kouwenhoven. However, by the time Livense filed a financial disclosure with U.S. officials, he changed his story again and reported the sum as a debt rather than a cash holding.
In yet another attempt to deceive the governments of both the U.S. and Canada, Livense and his partners misreported the facts about the sale of a Canadian Nazi front enterprise, La Cooperative Catholique des Consommateurs de Combustible, which imported German coal into Canada via the web of Thyssen-controlled U.S. businesses.
"The Canadian authorities, however, were not taken in by this maneuver," a U.S. government report states. The coal company was later seized by Canadian authorities.
After the war, a total of 18 additional Brown Brothers Harriman and UBC-related client assets were seized under The Trading with the Enemy Act, including several that showed the continuation of a relationship with the Thyssen family after the initial 1942 seizures.

What about all the government collaboration after WWII? We picked up as many rocket scientist as possible i.e. Werner Von Braum but we didn't stop there we also set up Klaus Barbie, one of the most ruthless killer, with the CIA. In fact he introduced the use of dogs in interogation to the US. Barbie set up mobile death squads in Russia during WWII and later helped to train Americans and South Americans to do the same.
"there's nothing, in terms of ferocity, to separate a Barbie-supervized killing in Russia from later operation such as My Lai or El Mozote."

Not only doesn't it surprize me that they sold goods to the Nazi's during the war, in fact it looks like we have modeled the Nazi's behavior after the war. That concerns me more.

Maybe his dealings with the nazi's dont amount to anything major.
But it shows the lengths and ETHICS a man in the name of BUSH would go to, to further his own needs.
