Are the Bush patriarch's investments on public record anywhere?
I'm just wondering what sort of holdings he has in the arms industry. Although Junior is probably clean in that respect, he will no doubt "inherit" quite a chunk immediately after leaving the Oval Office...

1. He had been with Carlyle Group at the start of the war..you can start there.
Bush, by way of inheritance stands to make lots and lots of money on the "war machine".

2. Carlyle Group has the disadvantage of being deliberately generic though
Hell, they own freakin' Dunkin' Donuts (which is perhaps evidence enough of mortal sin)...something nice and juicy like Blackwater or Heckler & Koch would be more pleasant to sink one's teeth into.

3. Becoming generic has happened since he's left. Before that, there
major business was being part of the war machine.

Now, to look respectable, they are diversifying. BTW...I have not gone to Dunkin' Donuts once since they purchased it, and I LOVE their coffee!
