George Bush nearly pelted with shoes

[Kirkland Laing]

Kirkland have you ever thought that just MAYBE if the Arabs weren't such pricks that everyone would benefit from the transaction of money for oil?

We are the customers in this situation and everyone knows THE CUSTOMER IS ALWAYS RIGHT!

And to think that you guys were against "drill, baby, drill"....if we already had oil then what the fuck would we care what Iraq was doing. But nooooo nobody even wants to try and search for oil.

You really are a monumental prick.

The Iraq war may have been about oil but it also may have been just to get a new leader in there that will at least for some time have to recognize that the US keeps him in power and therefore we both have the same goals.

Such a sensative culture though holy crap...."You just want our oil", "You just want access to the Suez Canal", "Nobody likes us"......waaaaah waaaaah waaaah. Join the rest of the world and stop suicide bombing people.

If you're going to continue arguing from a position of supreme ignorance there's no point replying.

Like or not,Iraq is all about the crude.
We got in to it in 91 over crude.
Kuwait started slant drilling in to Iraqi territory,Iraq told them to knock it off. They laughed, Iraq invaded. We said we didnt care right up until the King Appointed By God (thats what emir means) threatened to pull a few billion out of the world banks. And suddenly we had to save those poor Kuwaiti's
