So, the contracts for rebuilding Iraq go to the companies who gave the most money to Bush. This isn't particularly surprising, but it really should be getting more attention as its so clearly unethical. Many of these companies, as the article points out have employed high-ranking government officialis in the past. What surprises me is how blatant this is. Give money to Bush, get a big contract.

And the Immunity from the law granted to anything related to the word "oil" as long as your American.
Well it doesn't take an ignoramus to realize that the companies who donate the most money to elect the President get special treatment. oh wait....maybe it does Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image! unreg
