New Bridge Strategies LLC (Bushies cashing in)
Josh Marshall at http://www.talkingpointsmemo.com with this scoop on more Iraq profiteering sleaze going on around the Chimp.

New Bridge Strategies, LLC is a unique company that was created specifically with the aim of assisting clients to evaluate and take advantage of business opportunities in the Middle East following the conclusion of the U.S.-led war in Iraq. Its activities will seek to expedite the creation of free and fair markets and new economic growth in Iraq, consistent with the policies of the Bush Administration. The opportunities evolving in Iraq today are of such an unprecedented nature and scope that no other existing firm has the necessary skills and experience to be effective both in Washington, D.C. and on the ground in Iraq.

(marshall comments)
A'unique company'? You could say that. Who's the Chairman and Director of New Bridge? That would be Joe Allbaugh, President Bush's longtime right-hand-man and until about six months ago his head of the FEMA. Allbaugh was part of the president's so-called 'Iron Triangle' -- the other two being Karl Rove and Karen Hughes. And now Allbaugh's running a company that helps your company get the sweetest contracts in Iraq? That sound right to you?
