BUSHES THANKFUL FOR STUPID VOTERS
By Bill Gallagher

DETROIT -- Making money from government service and war, and lining the pockets of family and friends is a sacred creed in the Bush family. The Corleone family in "The Godfather" showed more restraint and was less inclined toward violence than the greedy gangsters the Bush crime family unleashed on the world.

Using public office and influence to make millions is so ingrained in the Bushevik regime that they don't even think twice when they raid the public treasury to take care of themselves.

Vice President Dick Cheney cashed in on his stint as secretary of defense to rake in millions in government contracts as CEO of Halliburton. The no bid, cost-plus contracts Halliburton subsequently landed in Iraq are just good business deals, expected spoils for imperial lords. The fact that Cheney was still getting residual payments from the company should in no way be considered a conflict.

As the Bushes gather this week, they have much to be thankful for. Their family business thrives and their wealth grows as the rest of the nation worries about having a job, making mortgage payments, having health insurance and paying for college tuition -- concerns unknown and unfelt among the well-stuffed Bush brood.

Neil Bush, the president's brother, is cashing in on the No Child Left Behind Act. Neil, you'll recall, escaped indictment for his role in the collapse of the Silverado Savings and Loan. The taxpayers picked up the tab for his malfeasance. Failure in business means nothing when all you have to do is shake down your daddy's pals for your next entrepreneurial experiment.

For Buzzy, the Cheney family, Erik Prince and all the Bushes, war has brought them a good life They have much money to be thankful for this week, and they'll repeat a phase that has profound meaning for them: "Please pass the gravy."
