(you do remember that?)


I remember that in the litany of excuses about why we were there.

I don't understand why you didn't pick any of the others?
WMD, drones, Winnebagos, Terrorist training camps, the poor trampled
Iraqi masses, mass graves, nuclear weapons materials, yellowcake,
tubes, etc.

Why isn't the big pool of oil under the country your focus. They knew
Saddam was hobbled. They knew the country would be taken over by Iran
if someone didn't fill the void first. Kissinger has been telling
every administration for four decades to go in and occupy the mid-east
so no one else gets their hands on that oil.



We had no problem getting our hands on that oil. Saddam was a willing
seller.
The best chance to get it at the cheapest price was to leave Saddam
there


They weren't convinced he could hold onto it. Doesn't matter if the
goose can lay golden eggs if you don't own the goose.

That pool was going to be up for grabs. Cheney and Bush had such a
stupid plan and stupid people surrounding them, they didn't bother to
think through how they were going to occupy the country and secure the
assets.

****in' idiots. Wolfowitz, Pearle, Rumsfeld, etc.

Cheney thought they'd be greeted as liberators. That cost us 4,000
lives and countless innocent Iraqis. Not to mention a huge pot of
gold.

It's laughable how the Republicans grouse about spending money on
health care when they couldn't wait to spill our borrowings in bullet,
bombs and blood.
