As President Bush embarks on a new effort to shore up public support for the war in Iraq, an uncle of the chief executive is collecting $2.7 million in cash and stock from the recent sale of a company that profited from the war.
A report filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission shows that William H.T. Bush collected a little less than $1.9 million in cash plus stock valued at more than $800,000 as a result of the sale of Engineered Support Systems Inc. to DRS Technologies of New Jersey.
The $1.7 billion deal closed Jan. 31. Both businesses have extensive military contracts.
How delightful that the Bush family benefits from the American blood being spilled on the sands of Iraq. This is a level of evil that I can barely wrap my mind around.
It just makes the allegations by Charlie Sheen, and those like him, seem even more possible. Is there nothing they would not do to make money?
