sophiaserpentiaAnother Bushie profiting from death and destruction (excuse me, "opportunities of an unprecedented nature and scope") in Iraq: Washington Insiders' New Firm Consults on Contracts in Iraq
Edit: This first one is particularly interesting, because of course all of the companies that have been left out of the Iraqi gold rush because they were never allowed to bid on contracts which have gone to WH cronies like Halliburton or WorldCom, now have an avenue into the White House. Step right up, pay your bucks, the President is a friend of mine, get our seal of approval and you're one of the insiders. (Hmm, if I were the type to go in for conspiracy theories, I'd be looking at Revelation 13:17 right now...)
Christmas comes early for oil companies who use or manufacture MTBE: Energy bill provision may stop suits over water polluted by gas additive
Finally, a group of scientists says global warming kills 160,000 people a year, but they're brown people, so I don't expect many Americans will notice or care: 160,000 Said Dying Yearly from Global Warming
