"Bush Buys Land in Northern Paraguay"

In the past, I've joked about Bush fleeing to some small Latin American country, and I even have a site jokingly suggesting that some people should leave the U.S. (10/16/13: site was PleaseLeaveThe . US, not mine anymore) However, if questionable reports are to be believed, the Bush family might already have an exit strategy planned.

From this (also here):
Buenos Aires, Oct 13 (Prensa Latina) An Argentine official regarded the intention of the George W. Bush family to settle on the Acuifero Guarani (Paraguay) as surprising, besides being a bad signal for the governments of the region.

Luis D Elia, undersecretary for the Social Habitat in the Argentine Federal Planning Ministry, issued a memo partially reproduced by digital INFOBAE.com, in which he spoke of the purchase by Bush of a 98,842-acre farm in northern Paraguay, between Brazil and Bolivia.

The news circulated Thursday in non-official sources in Asuncion, Paraguay...
The presumed reference doesn't have anything.

From this via this:
The Governor of Alto Paraguay, Erasmo Rodríguez Acosta has admitted to hearing that George Bush Sr. owns land in the Chaco region of Paraguay, in Paso de Patria. Acosta says that rumor has it that Bush owns near to 70 thousand hectares (173,000 acres) as part of an ecological reserve and/or ranch. However, the governor said he had no documents to prove the rumor. Acosta said that some stories credited the land to the Fundacion Patria, which Bush would be a member of. The spokespeople of the organization were not available to comment. Supposedly, Timothy Towell, the U.S. Ambassador in Asuncion (the capital of Paraguay) is the present administrator of the land. First accounts signaled that Bush had acquired 40,000 hectares (99,000 acres) in the Chaco zone of Fuerte Olimpo, near the Bolivian Border. A spark of the interest in this property may have been Jenna Bush's private visit to Paraguay with Unicef, which started Saturday, October 7, 2006. Supposedly Jenna will travel to the ranch to ''observe'' several indigenous villages are located on the property.
Unless documents surface, I suggest considering this just a rumor.

That's funny, while Bush hammers America with trillions in massive debt and saddles future generations with millions of tax-parasite immigrants he allegedly buys tax-exempt land in a foreign country. ____________________

One way to protect America from the global elitists is to annihilate the tax exempt status of all their wealth including the foundations, nature preserves & trusts, if they got stuck picking up the tab for all their global machinations they'd act differently._______________I bet many a liberal would change their tune if their family wealth were subject to taxation at the same rate as Joesixpack's. _____________________Ted Kennedy would be first in line to repeal the estate tax.
