but making billion-dollar weapons deals with both sides. am i the only one who believes the two goals to be fundamentally opposite!? he's supposed to be talking 'peace' (which could be a great punch line considering the regions history) yet he's selling smart bombs!?? wtf!? i mean really. i also find it funny that israel starts shooting at the palestinians again before bush has even left the area...lost cause?

And honorable mentions should go, of course, to investigations into Halliburton (Dick Cheney's former company) and Enron (George Bush's biggest corporate supporter).Comment
