See, it wasn't ONLY about saying, "Yassuh, masta" to the Likud Lobby (AIPAC, just in case you're wondering ).
Now, here's another surge that will leave the Iraqis feeling f_cked yet again by the GOOD OLE USA, n'est pas?

Sounds like "anti-trust" policy to me?
It's good to see Iraq shaking away the chains of "Nationalization".

Did we really need another reason to be ashamed of our country? Well, there's no short supply. |

i'll believe it when I see it. The Iraqis haven't passed the bill yet. I have a feeling we won't hear about this again. |

I don't know, I don't think we would still be there if our oil companies weren't going to get more than their fair share of the profits. Otherwise it wouldn't be worth the investment we are putting into it. Unless the Bush administration is just that stubborn and closeminded...which means we could be in trouble. |

And there you have it.
Bush is an updated version of LBJ, at least when it comes to war. |
