Since you seem to know, who is getting rich from this war? Lay out some facts to back your bold statement. Easy to say, but if you are going to say it, prove it.

These from just a cursory google search:

AEGIS $293 million contract in Iraq (2004)
BearingPoint $240 million contract (2004)
Lockheed Martin $21.9 billion (2003) [Their stocks have tripled since 2000]

Of course, it is a hit-piece, but it also shows that a heck of allot of money is being circulated. Those are your tax dollars. Notice some of the personalities associated with some of those companies, too. You should be able to recognize several who are former governmental officials and politicians.

If you really wanted to, you could probably do some research on your own and compile a list of many more companies. If you really wanted to.....sometimes ignorance is bliss, however.

What I notice is where your info comes from. I checked it out. You did some work on this. The Info is suspect as to their motivation as is yours.

Do not add little liberal "try to fool the conservative" lines in your conversation. You are very transparent. Come out and admit you are a liberal.

You can tell one from their conversation

class warfare
Hating affluence(unless they are rich democrats , Rockefeller, Kennedy, Pelosi, the crook, Harry Reid, just to name a few)
Extreme vitriol for Republicans

These are just a few, many more are able to be named as soon as they are pegged. I will give you credit for taking the time and effort to find some liberal places to go to prove your liberal point.

By the way, many of these companies you pointed out were quite profitable and weren't ready for a garage sale before the war.

I just wish you would quit masquerading.

There isn't a business out there that isn't in it to make a profit. A lot of these companies have probably made your little liberal life better.

Conservatism , it works every time, even in this last election. Democrats tried it and it worked. Much to your dismay.
