We must recall that President George Bush Jr and Vice-President Dick Cheney made their money in the oil business.

In between Bush regimes, Cheney was CEO of Haliburton Industries, an oil services company that has dealings with repressive governments like Burma and Iraq. The Washington Post revealed that in fact two Haliburton subsidiaries were doing business with Iraq. Haliburton also has vested interest in Alaska and Mexico's Cantarell offshore oil fields in the Gulf Of Mexico.

Before coming to the Bush administration, Don Evans, Secretary of Commerce, was chairman and CEO of Tom Brown, Inc., a 1.2 billion oil and gas company.
