[554] Final Judgment 650
George Bush could probably be indicted and convicted for any number
of crimes, but conspiracy in the JFK assassination is not likely one of them.
The full story of George Bush and his record of CIA intrigue has yet to be
told—and, unfortunately, will probably never be told—but I felt that, for the
record, it would be appropriate to explore Bush's possible ties to the
assassination in the pages of Final Judgment.
And just for the record, I'd like to throw out my own little theory about
Bush's connection to the JFK affair. This is sure to be controversial and I
don't have any evidence to prove it, but I'll put it on the table for others to
think about. Although most JFK assassination researchers are convinced
that the mysterious CIA figure "Maurice Bishop" (once purportedly seen in
Texas in the company of Lee Harvey Oswald) was actually longtime CIA
figure David Atlee Phillips, I have personally always felt that the famous
sketch of "Bishop" which many say has a strong resemblance to Phillips,
could just as easily be George Bush.
And if you compare photos of Bush and Phillips, it's conceivable that some
might find the two to have a similar appearance. Is it at all possible that
"Maurice Bishop" was really a George Bush CIA code name during
Bush's CIA intrigue with the Cubans around the time of the JFK
assassination? Is it possible that the code name "Maurice Bishop" was
actually used by several people, Bush being among them? Is it possible that
since David Atlee Phillips was known as a CIA figure that the CIA floated
the story that Phillips was really "Bishop" so as to keep Bush's CIA
connection deep cover? As I say, this is all pure speculation and I'm not
suggesting that there's any evidence to prove it. However . . .
Long before the publication of Mark Lane's book, Plausible Denial
(not to mention the story in The Spotlight that sparked the libel suit by
former CIA man E. Howard Hunt that is described in Lane's book),
there was a lot of speculation that Hunt was involved in the JFK
assassination and that he may have been one of the famous "tramps"
photographed in Dealey Plaza shortly after the president's murder. Do
you think Hunt was one of those tramps or that those "tramps" were
involved in the assassination conspiracy?
First of all, I am very familiar with all of the research and writing
regarding the so-called "tramps." However, I am not convinced that E.
Howard Hunt was one of those tramps. I have even seen another picture,
published in one of the tabloids, that purports to show Hunt picking up a
bullet in Dealey Plaza immediately after the assassination. (If anything the
individual which is supposed to be Hunt looks more like former President
Gerald Ford who served on the Warren Commission and I don't think that it
was Ford.) Hunt is a suspicious character and he was mixed up in the
intrigue surrounding the assassination as Plausible Denial and Final
Judgment together prove. The book Coup d'Etat in America by A. J.
Weberman and Michael Canfield alleges that Hunt was one of the tramps,
but, as I say, I don't believe it.
