Real life game of monopoly

By portraying bogus intelligence as fact and by inventing a relationship
between al-qaeda and Saddam Hussein, Cheney, Bush (& Rumsfeld) led the

The Carlyle Group is a privately-owned equity firm organized and run by
former members of the Reagan and Bush Sr. administrations. Carlyle could lay

Carlyle manages more than $44 billion in 42 different investment funds.
