No, you and I aren't reaping the rewards, but I am sure that GW and Chaney "slush fund" account balances are looking pretty nice these days. Those kick-backs from the NON-BID Halibuton contracts totalling close to 2 BILLION couldn't have hurt. No, we didn't "go there for the oil", but the spoils of war are not fictional, they just only make it to a select few.
