According to the Excess Report, through a series of defense contracts, ESS earnings reached record levels and set the stage for the sale of the firm to another defense contractor, DRS Technologies, in January 2006, and among the beneficiaries of the deal was Uncle William, who cleared $2.7 million in cash and stock off the sale.
Its time for Congress to stop the direct deposits of tax dollars into the Bush bank accounts. Lawmakers need to notify the White House that all funding for Iraq is done, other than what is needed for the immediate removal of our troops from this disgusting war profiteering scheme.
This article is a must read. We all know that The Bush family is joined at the hip with the Al Sauds and other wealthy Saudis, but this article really gets into the specifics.
It boils down to that--the longer we stay in Iraq, the more the Bush family gets tons of money in Defense contracts, all paid for by the American taxpayer--never mind all the lives lost and devastated. Win or lose, hated or not, is doesn't matter, the Bushes are laughing all the way to the bank.
Deeply disgusting, it's like the Corleones have hijacked the government. We are truly a banana republic.

Little wonder that Bush prolongs the occupation. With every month that passes his family is making millions - blood money. Wasn't Bush reading Shakespeare last summer(ha ha)? "Murder will out."

Neil Bush was involved in the "Silverado Savings & Loan" debacle (along with the Keating five)....
Neil Bush has been rumored to be involved in the "Educational Testing" industry which has evolved since the "No Child Left Behind" act......
Little George, his father, and other family members have had long standing "friendships" with the Saudi royal family for decades.......A relationship where oil & money are thicker than American blood & treasure.
If you haven't seen it yet please view the film Farenheit 9/11 you will become very angry at the way one royal family influences the other royal family.....
I guess it's difficult to get along in the world when you only make a presidents salary...........you might be tempted to develop other revenue streams.
If almost all of the perpetrators of 9-11 are from Saudi Arabia, the Mastermind of 9-11 is from Saudi Arabia; If the richest country in the middle east won't help us to secure a stable political situation with it's neighbors, and if the cost of the very commodity we are fighting to protect continues to rise at alarming rates...........you gotta ask yourself if we are fighting a war with the wrong country.
Thank you for your attention...............Mr. Brian Mathes

In several Articles of late I have written about that very thing. Strip them of the Carlyle Wealth which has profited $15 Billion since the start of the war and averaged 34.7% per year for 15 years, which is about 12 times what the average huge and successful Corporation does.
Carlyle is the largest privately held equity firm in America. It consists of former dictators, generals, admirals, former repub presidents, oil company execs, arms dealers etc. It is bad enough to profit from war, but to start wars and then to profit from them is quite another "Christian Act". That is also why I have written about nationalizing oil companies and arms dealers, and making them both and all necessities non-profit and turned over to American Universities. Good article.

The corruption goes back to Prescott Bush and Adolph Hitler. This amoral family will do anything to make a buck. Meanwhile, all the children are enjoying the fruits of this ill-gotten money.

" .......starting with the anti-terrorism appropriation a week after the 9/11 attacks, he estimates the US has spent $400 billion fighting terrorism through fiscal 2006, which ended on September 30, 2006."
And some still don't understand how or why 9/11 changed so much. Why, it's the crux of the biscuit ; 9/11 was the enabler !
Yes, Congress must cut of Bush family war profits. Wouldn't it be wonderful if ALL WAR PROFITS could be cut off ? After all, war is a lucrative business.

PETE ROSE WAS BANNED FOR BETTING ON HIS OWN TEAM. HERE ARE THE BUSHITES PROFITING AND HARDLY BETTING ON THEIR OWN TEAM AND EVERYONE ELSE'S TEAM PLUS STEALING FROM THE IRAQI'S AND AMERICANS. CHENEY MAY BE RUNNING IRAN CONTRA-TYPE INSURRECTIONS IN TRAN, IRAQ, AND SOON HERE WITHJ ALQAEDA, AND PERHAPS BLACKWATER AND OTHERS.
I PREDICTED THAT HALLIBURTON, SEVERAL YEARS AGO AND AGAIN SEVERAL TIMES LAST YEAR AND SINCE, WOULD MOVE OUT OF THE USA TO SECURE THEIR FUTURE. ARE THEY GOING TO BE THE NEW AL QAEDA COORDINATORS OF ATTACKS AGAINST USA TO FRIGHTEN YELLOW AMERICANS TO VOTE RED AGAIN? IS THAT HOW THE BUSHITES INITIATED, WITH BUSH'S KNOWLEDGE, 9/11? I SAY W/OUT HIS OKAY, BECAUSE HE LOOED GENUINELY SHOCKED IN THE THAT SCHOOL. CHENEY MAY HAVE BROUGHT HIM UP TO DATE LATER.

aren't left up to Dubya alone. I doubt he has a word in the matter, yet.
He (Dubya) did look like a kid left out in front of the barbershop that day. That is to say, to look at Dubya in search of the 9/11 perps is to follow the carrot dangling from the stick. Just look at who all profits from all this....since 9/11. Lots of names, lots of money. I had come up with some damned good reasons for 9/11 but this one (money) tops them all. The global strategy reasoning never made sense...to me.

All dead soldiers should be reimbursed with a million dollars, taken out of the pockets of the Bushes and the Cheneys. If Abraham Lincoln left the presidency broke, so should these morons. But, ... we can be rest assured that this administration will go down in history as, not only the worst president in history, but also, the laughing stock of every historian who studies presidential administrations.
The Tillman's should reap millions off of Bush and Cheney, but also the Pentagon. Both of the wannabe sheriffs, should have their boots kicked up in their butts until we can see the tips in the eyes.

Email this to everyone you know. I have tried to follow the money trail with help from the internet and really appreciate the efforts of those who put it all together. We need to spread this far and wide. Maybe some where ,some one will be able to get Congress to look beyond the end of their terms. I do feel for the people who lost loved ones to this greedy horde. But the truth must be told .The deceptions are endless and it boggles the mind how duplicitous this gang of thieves are. It has taken 3 lifetimes for this plot to come to fruition. They can not be allowed to continue to get away with this. It is one case that does need a very Speical Prosecutor. See if we can find any volunteers.

Who can we get in Congress to submit a bill that would word the withdrawal funds that way? Limit the funding to safe withdrawal of troops. Also, how to get the information about Bush family war profiteering to everyone in Congress and in the media?
