So how much have Bush and Cheney profited from the rise in gas prices?

[MessiahRp]

You know they both still own oil stock. They have to be raking from the price of oil continually going up and gas prices skyrocketing.

Anyone have any idea of how much they're pocketing?

3. I would like to see a dollar figure on that one

7. As would I

There's got to be some way of tracking what companies they (Bush & Cheney... not to mention Condi and Rummy) are invested in and the profits reaped since Bushco took over in 2001.

5. It's a heck of a system they've got

Let a war start, sell or give one side weapons, let the oils profits go up then kick back and watch all the "Chaos with Condi" on TV.

6. I wonder if the MSM

would ever do a piece on Cheney's "I'll divest it if I'm elected" Halliburton stock. You know, the shares that were originally worth $200,000 or so and rose, after the Iraq war started, to around $4,000,000? Is war profiteering not news anymore? With their involvement in Bechtel, the Carlyle Group and God knows who else, you can bet your sweet bippy that the Bush Family (as well as other Administration officials and Family friends) or making a killin' -- pun intended -- off this war and the gas prices.

If Hillary owned stock that went sky high with the onset of war, don't you think CNN, Faux, etc and so on would be blanketing us 24/7 with it and with calls for her resignation? And if Bill made money off the war, they'd be screaming about taking away his Presidential Pension and Security Detail! (sigh) This whole f**king administration has made me so g**damn cynical. I sound just like my Grandpa used to during the Nixon mess!
