Bush did it for the oil.Bush did it for the oil.
Why would Bush go half way around the world to take oil ,when he could use imagration as the reason and take Mexico?
He could offer visa's and citizen ship to ensure an easy take over.
With the liberal spin look at it close it makes no sense.
It would not take ships to bring it to us could just pipe it to Texsas. I think this makes more sense than going to Iraq for it.
What do you think ?

There is a prinicple in economics called supply and demand. If demand for a good goes up, and the supply declines the price of that good will increase. By controlling the oil of Iraq, and effectively taking it "offline" the US has created a world wide scarcity for oil. This is just part of the reason that Oil companies have been posting huge profits during this time as oil prices increase to ridiculous levels.

There are more reasons than just oil but i do feel that was one of the main reasons. The western countries are running out of oil but there is still quite a lot left in the middle east, thats why Bush went there.

Yeah, that would be a great way to solve illegal immigration! Take over Mexico! They can't immigrate illegally when they're already our citizens!
And why would Bush deliberately make war on a country bordering the U.S.?
I don't believe Bush did it for the oil, but I still think your reasoning is flawed.

Not really, Iraq is one of the largest oil reserves in the world. Mexico does not even fit on the same graph in regards to oil reserves.
by the way the war on Iraq isn't for oil or democracy, it is a war secularism because when Hamas won democratically we started politically attacking them (American hypocrisy on democracy).

The bottom line is if we had gone to Iraq for oil (AND WE DIDN'T) we wouldn't be setting them up with a government. We will have to pay them for oil if we get it from there now. If we went for oil we would have cleaned them all out and took the land.

Whether or not Bush did it for the oil he certainly didn't do it for the reasons he said - to get rid of the weapons of mass destruction, on account of there not being any. If he's lied about that how can we trust him on anything?

wasn't just the oil dummy.
It was to take out his daddy's nemesis.
Bush-Lite was so eager to take out Saddam even before 9/11 according to white house insiders like Treasury Secretary Paul O'Neil. WMDs was just an excuse.

I think Bush invaded Iraq for a myriad of reasons, but none of the reasons he gave us.

I also think that your spelling is atrocious.
