Hell, I'd just like to know where all the oil is that was supposed to fund Iraq rebuilding itself like Bushco promised.

One reason we're still in Iraq is to keep the terrorists there from burning the oilwells and refineries again, as Saddam did when he realized that he was being beaten in Desert Storm. Keep in mind, America's target obviously was not the oil wells, because our military moved west into the desert to flank Baghdad, not up the coast.
How cheap do you think oil should be? The world is using more of it each year, and China and India are just now really starting in a big way to drive cars, pave superhighways, and run big industries, and oil is steadily becoming harder to find and more expensive to retrieve.

No---oil is not why we are in Iraq.
We are in Iraq to get the terrorists before they can get us again.
Understand?
Oil prices are determined by the same thing that determines ALL prices....SUPPLY AND DEMAND. Very simple.

GWB couldn't find his butt with both hands, he couldn't find any WMD, couldn't find any terrorist training camps and apparently he can't find any oil in Iraq either. But that's balanced in an odd way; we can't find out why we're really there in the first place.

Bush = Satan
