Good work Brian - you assembled a lot of the Bush connections in one place. I sometimes wonder if the members of the board here just feel it's too dangerous to jump on this bandwagon. There is of course more info, as you alluded to when you reached Bush as VP, and it ties directly to the whole BOP thing. I also think Tidd is right to tie in the drug trade, as Peter Dale Scott did so admirably.......

"Over there," they are reinventing the wheel, learning how to crawl, all over again, before they can walk.

Tom Scully Wrote:Lemme distill my last post to one sentence. I discovered in the dim dawn light this A.M. that the Reader's Digest editor, Henry Hurt, who Billy Lord wrote a letter to President Carter complaining about,

Quote:in the same month that DeMohrenschildt interrupted the recording of a soap opera being recorded by the widow of the first cousin of Nelson Rockefeller's first wife, Nancy Sands Tilton, first cousin of the mother of DeMohrenschildt's daughter, Alexandra,

was married to the niece of the chairman of Freeport Sulphur, Langbourne Williams, Jr.

(Jim Beamiss, described in Billy Lord's 1977 letter, was Gerry Bemiss, the best friend of GHW Bush, and his father, Sam Bemiss, was the first cousin of both Langbourne Williams, Jr. and Langbourne's brother George Dandridge Williams, the father-in-law of Reader's Digest editor, Henry Hurt!).....

.....Can anyone name a journalist with independence from the ownership of the owners of MSM who could convincingly
carry this water, this simple evidentiary presentation of support for Billy Joe Lord's late 1976 appeal by letter to the
incoming Carter administration? Lord was savvy enough not to address it to Ford, but the blizzard of BS flung at us this week,
coupled with the discrediting of even non-corporate journalists/ investigative reporters and seeing the locomotive
with Bush graphics and "4141" renumbering? (or did they actually find RR rolling stock operationally numbered as
such?) was an epiphany. Is Billy Joe Lord or at least his letter gonna be buried with Bush today, or does it have
even the slightest potential as a smoking gun, considering the supporting circumstatial evidence has grown to
the most compelling it has ever been?


My approach is reach for the low hanging fruit instead of the futile grand slam home run, and the fruit could not
be lower in this instance unless it is windfall on the ground.


All that Lord described that is directlymaterial to the charge of Bush and those closest to him literally muscling Lord
in 1976, is on the table. However, I am now convinced after this week the haves are so far ahead, it cannot even be
a contest, anymore.


First, the core accusation, hyper curiousity displayed by team Bush towards Lord knowledge, as the HSCA geared up
and it had become clear republicans would lose control of the presidency and of the CIA. This answers the question
of why risk rattling Billy Lord's cage if you were among the innermost Bush circle?

....and an expanded version of the short form displayed above.: http://jfkforum.com/images/DevineLordHurt.jpg


Henry Hurt is simply supposed to be an Readers Digest journalist author with emphasis on National Security matters.
This dents that assumption quite remarkably.:

Gerry Bemiss background matched Lord's recounting of the advisor Lord claimed informed Hurt on how to pressure cooperation of Lord!




Eight years earlier, Hurt was working in Kennebunkport and marrying into the Bemiss/Williams family.:

Langbourne Williams Is Dead; Retired Businessman Was 91
By JOHN HOLUSHA SEPT. 14, 1994
Langbourne Meade Williams Jr., the retired chairman of a company now known as
Freeport-McMoRan Inc., died on Thursday at his country home near Rapidan, Va.
He was 91.
Mr. Williams was born in Richmond and was the descendant of a family that
had been socially prominent since the founding of the country. One ancestor was
Edmund Randolph, who was the Attorney General in George Washington's first
Cabinet and in part of his second and also served as Governor of Virginia. Another,
Bartholomew Dandridge, was Treasurer of Virginia and the brother of Martha
Washington.......

?.He directed George H.W. Bush?s successful paign for Congress from Houston and later joined Bush?s staff in Washington. Allison was named deputy chairman of the Republican National Committee in April 1969 and served in that post until Dec. 15, 1970 when he resigned in order to organize a political consulting firm in Washington. He liquidated the firm and returned to Midland in the summer of 1974 to rejoin the Reporter-Telegram as executive vice president. He became president and publisher of the newspaper on Jan. 28, 1975, succeeding his father, who had died on Jan. 14.

The FBI claimed it could not corroborate the claims in the Lord letter or identify Jim Beamis.
I doubt Lord had much of a concept of who he was complaining about!


(Lord says he never met Jim Allison, but out of necessity works for the Midland newspaper, and the other name is Mr. Bemis(?) )
