Missing billions in Iraq?
Do you think that bushCo might've paid off insurgent leaders to back off during the Iraq elections with some of this cash? ... and now they are using it to finance attacks in Iraq and London?

Until someone accounts for how the $9 billion got spent, everything is open to speculation.

1. As far as I'm concerned, when it comes to BushCo...
and anything they are involved with, everything is ALWAYS open to speculation, suspicion, etc.

3. They are big time wheeler dealers (read crooks) from way back!
I can't recommend that book by Kevin Phillips, American Dynasty, enough. Scrupulously documented, it is a terrific read written by a onetime major repuliCon strategist.

They have been involved in shady deals since the age of the robber barons, in fact they were among said robber barons.
