4. It was never about bird flu. It was about bird flu vaccine.

Gilead holds the rights to Tamiflu. Rumsfeld is a former chairman of Gilead and holds much stock in it. "The rise in Gilead's share prices from USD$35 to USD$57 per share will have added between USD$2.5 million to USD$15.5 million to Rumsfeld's net worth."

Our tax dollars spent to enrich Rumsfeld (bird flu vaccine).
Our tax dollars spent to enrich Neil Bush (Ignite! software for NCLB)
Our tax dollars spent to enrich Cheney (Halliburton)

Crooks, liars, thieves, criminals
