October 20, 2004—As if Bush's sale of his $606,000 share of Texas Rangers stock to owner Tom Hicks for $15 million wasn't enough, there's more from deep in the heart of Texas to nail the good old boy, namely the possibility of tax evasion. That is, Bush declared the proceeds as a long-term capital gain, which it wasn't, as opposed to ordinary income, which it was. This means Bush paid at the capital gains' rate of 20 percent as opposed to the ordinary income rate of 39.6 percent. Beating the IRS out of nearly 20 percent in additional taxes. But the fun doesn't stop there. As reported by MakeThemAccountable.com, Bush had had prior business with Tom Hicks, who also was cofounder, with his brother R. Steven Hicks, of a radio company that merged in 1999 into AMFM, Inc. It was soon engulfed and devoured by Clear Channel Communications, of which old Tom became vice chair (I think the title is appropriate, don't you?). Tom, a busy bee, is also chief corporate raider for the firm Hicks, Muse, Tate & Furst. In addition to being Bush's No. 4 career patron, Hicks, Muse wanted to dip into the $13 billion University of Texas (UT) endowment for takeover deals, sort of like Michael Milken's old corporate raider "treasure chests." And we all know what happened to Mike. Indicted in 1989 of 98 counts of fraud and racketeering. In 1990, banned from operating in the securities industry for life and sentenced to 10 years in prison for security fraud by then straight shooting New York D.A., Rudy Guiliani. Sentence later reduced to 22 months, served at a "Club Fed," a fenceless prison camp for low risk inmates. Ah well, life at the top. But let's move on . . . Coincidentally, as Bush stepped into the Texas governor's office, Hicks was confirmed as a University of Texas regent, first chair no less. Hicks corralled some lobbyists to help pass a bill to create the UT Investment Management Co (UTIMCO). Love the acronyms. Then UTIMCO handed out contracts to private investment firms to "manage" pieces of the endowment—lots of foxes in the old hen house. When a media scandal (remember those) actually exposed UTIMCO's juicy contract deals with firms connected to Hicks and Bush, and even one that President Bush 1 reportedly had a piece of, well, folks weren't too happy. Nevertheless, the management fees to Hicks for "investing" the TU billions could easily have topped the $250 million he paid for the Texas Rangers. In so many words, Bush in his official duties as governor passed Hicks the money to buy the team. Right there and then Junior should have been busted for misuse of his office for personal profit. He wasn't. And, as mentioned, he bilked even more bucks out of the deal by wrongly reporting taxes due on the team sale. In fact, an IRS agent who worked on the 1972 Governor of Illinois Otto Kerner's case, commented . . ."The government concluded, and the jury affirmed, the fact that people in official policy positions who enhance the value of their own property in whole or in part are guilty of a corrupt practice, and accordingly the gain is not capital gain. This is consistent with the theory behind giving tax incentives only for legitimate capital appreciation." It's about as clear as a day in Crawford, Texas that Governor Bush had a real incentive to direct public policy for personal benefit. In contrast, Kerner had been a rich man already, and the proceeds he filched didn't add up to much considering his net worth. But Junior's $12 million payoff was the mother lode of his assets. What's more, in addition to the $150 million funded by the city of Arlington's citizens, the Gov pushed legislation to reduce the Ranger's school tax. The Rangers leased the stadium from a development corporation exempt from any school district tax, which turned out to be a hefty amount. And to top it off, the Gov backed legislation that reduced the Ranger's school tax by $920,000, if the team exercised their option to buy the stadium. It also would have paid off in another venue in which Bush had an equity interest with his good old boy TR pardners. Yes sir, take me out to the ballgame. The 4/22/97 Houston Chronicle, said "The tax reform bill . . . would have saved at least $2.5 million in school property tax for a company founded by Bush's billionaire business partner and top campaign contributor, Richard Rainwater of Forth Worth," another beaut. Rainwater was top gun of a public company, Crescent Real Estate Equities, a real estate trust traded on the New York Stock Exchange. Guess what? Bush had 4,222 shares of the company's stock when he offered up the tax cut that would benefit it. This was the firm that owned psychiatric hospitals throughout the country—closed because of scandals and frauds exposed by 60 Minutes and several publications before the 2000 presidential election. This was the Junior we were inheriting via fraudulent voting procedures, a stacked Supreme Court, Jeb, and the lovely Katherine Harris. Add to that, the Crescent perks afforded by Bush policies: (1) receiving an extra $10 million stadium tax for a stadium used by the Dallas Mavericks; (2) Texas sold to Crescent three office blocks that belonged to the teacher's retirement fund—the sale of one block cost the fund $44 million—(3) the trust fund for the TU Public School sunk $20 million in Crescent in Bush's first term as governor. The Bushman sold his Crescent interest via his "blind trust," the Lone Star Trust, whose trustee was Bush's own personal CPA, Robert McClesky. Of course, the Crescent shares were sold at their top dollar, $40 a pop, gifting him proceeds of $168,000. Not too soon after, Crescent's stock dumped at $21 a share. And on and on he goes, the Lone Ranger riding into the sunset. Hi-ho Silver, away! Returning to the TR sale, Bush earned an additional 10 percent of the team by his "added value" of political clout. It once again smacks of conflict of interest. According to IRS Revenue Procedure 93-27, "The receipt of partnership capital interest for service provided to or for the benefit of the partnership is taxable as compensation." As a result of filing the Ranger $12 million as long-term capital gains, Bush screwed the U.S. government out of at least $2.4 million in taxes. Buy me some peanuts and cracker jacks. I don't care if we never get back, etc. So stay tuned as the song and saga play out. And let's see if the American people get just who the creep is sitting in the White House. His very presence stains it, every which way. Let's hope on November 3, he gets the rousing, "Yerrr Out!" he so richly deserves—for this and all his other strikeouts worldwide.

thanks!
