During his press conference last week, Bush said "money trumps peace."
Isn't that what this war is really all about?

I watched it on C-span.

That's just a fact, keeping the money flowing and the war machine going will always outwin with the powers that be.....it's just the way it is..
there is no money to be made and there's no fun in peace, and doing the right thing either.

Yes of course but it should be modified to lots of money for him and his friends, a continued comfortable standard of living for most Americans and westerners in general and taking it from behind for the rest of the World.

What does this have to do with Conservatism? Or, do you really belive Bush is a Conservative just because Rush Limbaugh and his ilk told you so?

I doubt very much anything intelligible coming from the monkey. He probably was "repeating" words heard from his master Cheney and the Zionist Neocons running the US policies.

I hadn't heard that one. Talk about your Freudian slips! But, yes, most Americans realize the reality of this war, and it is about money.

I don't think you understand what conservatism is. It also appears that you assume that Bush is a conservative. He's never been that, yes he has some areas that are conservative.

"If you analyze it I believe the very heart and soul of conservatism is libertarianism."
From the mouth of Ronald Reagan.
Bush is not a conservative. He is dogmatic, zealous,overspending and intrusive. Reagan and Goldwater are spinning in their graves.
