Writer of Recalled Bush Biography Apparent Suicide
By Steve Barnes
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (Reuters) - James Howard Hatfield, whose biography of President Bush (news - web sites) won national attention before its publisher withdrew it over the author's criminal past, died in an Arkansas motel in what police on Friday called a suicide.
++ And another Bush "suicide": ++

February 8, 1999.
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, headquarters of the most influential conservative power player in American politics.
Richard Mellon Scaife, the man accused of trying to bring down President Clinton, works in his office on the 39th floor of one Oxford Center.
One hundred feet down the hall, Steve Kangas, a liberal activist with his own website is found dead. The coroner rules his death a suicide. Others are not so sure.
++ And another: ++

Danny Casolaro called it "the Octopus". A vast, interlocking network of criminal conspiracy that reaches into every branch and agency of the U.S. government, many other national governments, and every sector of our societies.
An investigative reporter seeking the truth, Danny told his friends he was meeting an informant to "bring back the head of the Octopus" when his body was found in a hotel in Martinsburg, West Virginia, on August 10, 1991. Much of the evidence he had gathered was missing. The death was ruled a "suicide", but the evidence supports murder. He never had the chance to write the book he was working on. This is an attempt to finish the book Danny started, based on his surviving notes and further investigation.
++ And there's this lawsuit against another Bush critical author: ++

A gold company with ties to the Bush family tries to muzzle a muckraking journalist.
On Nov. 26, 2000, the Observer published "The Best Democracy Money Can Buy," a column by investigative reporter Gregory Palast (who has written for Salon) that outlined the cozy relationship enjoyed by the Bush family and the Barrick interests. Palast, who happens to be an American citizen, pointed out that Barrick's U.S. subsidiary, Barrick Goldstrike, had donated over $100,000 to Republican committees in recent years; that Goldstrike had previously obtained a very sweet deal to mine gold on public lands in Nevada, pushed through during the final days of George H.W. Bush's presidency; and that the former president had landed on Barrick's payroll after leaving office, to peddle his influence with foreign leaders in exchange for a salary and stock options.
