Now, personally I think you'd have to be pretty screwed up to send people to die in a foreign country just to make yourself some money. MAybe i'm crazy, but I give Bush more credit than that. But still, the kid wouldn't quit - any opinion other than his was wrong. And that was the stupidest one i've heard in a long time. Needless to say I don't talk to the kid anymore.

Yeah, that's exactly the problem. And that sure as hell doesn't make it right. I just find it...well...ironic...that it happened to go to a company that our vice president has investments in. Oh well, the truth will hopefully prevail.
Just because I question Bush/Cheney's motives and don't think their the saints people claim they are, doesn't mean I buy into theory either. I just find it, how should I put this...rather convenient that they managed to profit from the war...
