-----------
Bush family private equity fund in deep trouble as Financial Tsunami
rolls on By F. William Engdahl Global Research, March 10, 2008 Carlyle Capital
Corp. Ltd., a subsidiary of one of the most influential USA private equity
funds and closely tied to the Bush family, is in default on several of its

two decades. The severity of its liquidity problems indicates that the
unfolding financial crisis is taking major parts of the US financial and
political elite down with it. Among the leading partners of the Carlyle Group
in recent years have been George H.W. Bush, father of the President; James
Baker III, the Bush family1s attorney and ‘fixer;1 former UK Prime Minister
John Major. - Fri, Mar 14 2008 5:10 am
