He made this statement. Sometimes sometimes money trumps peace!
There is another person that confirms that before bush was even elected he new he was going to take the country into war. Or that if he got in he was going to do everything he could to get into a war.
That is why he had chenny and rumsfeld, addington and some ot the others that were old hands at war and killing people in general.
