The Face of a War Profiteer


Hosted by Photobucket.com
Uncle "Bucky" Bush

I suppose it's not too surprising, but that doesn't make it any less depressing:

"The Iraq war helped bring record earnings to St. Louis-based defense contractor Engineered Support Systems Inc., and new financial data show that the firm's war-related profits have trickled down to a familiar family name -- Bush.

"William H.T. 'Bucky' Bush, uncle of the president and youngest brother of former President George H.W. Bush, cashed in ESSI stock options last month with a net value of nearly half a million dollars."
