Joe Conason in Salon today: http://www.salon.com/opinion/conason/2006/02/24/ports_controversy/

A good summary for getting up to speed on the BF crime family. He gives us a one-page summary of the * family business dealings for the last few decades. BCCI, Harken, Carlyle Group--it's all there.

1. This article is one the "greatest page"....

not all of it, you have to be a subscriber or register for a free day. However, it can't be touted enough. The BFEE and many seedy Arab characters have a long and storied history, one that would land anyone else in a cell at Guantanamo Bay.

thing for this country...IT IS ABOUT SWELLING THE BUSH POCKETS.

2. Wasn't there some money made for the Bushes during Gulf War I in

Dubai? I thought that one of the brothers or the uncle had oil company holdings that got a boost from Iraq burning their oil fields. Or was that in another life of mine?
