Since we are at war & "saving the people of Iraq", doesn't it make sense for us to get free or cheaper oil, after all we didn't start this war to just to go to war, or did we (a different subject). I think we should get some benefits from it. What do you think? And oh, I think if it pisses off OPEC & the Oil Gods. so be it, were spending our reserves , Blood, lives, family life & CASH to be there, its time for some interest, free oil would do it.

We are not in Iraq to "save the people of Iraq." That is just a smoke screen and the current reason used by this administration. Originally, we invaded because of WMD, which was also a smoke screen.
We are in Iraq to exert control over the oil fields, plain and simple. The policy of our government, and this goes back to the 1970s, is that to secure our economy we must have a controlling influence over 60% of the world's oil reserves. With the emergence of China as a major energy consumer, this balance has been upset.
Yes Mr. and Mrs. America, it's about the oil. How many more lives will be shed for our gas tanks?

I have to say No its not our oil to take freely. Its the Irqa and they should get some money for it, to go toward making their country better. Providing schools for them, books etc

I personally think we should take over the oil to fund the war.

Actually, there are people in society that are getting cheaper oil. The question is, how to get on that A-List. When we know, that might open up Pandora's Box.

No, what we should be doing is finding another energy then oil. We need to get back to controlling our own destiny.

yes, we should. we should then invade iran and get free oil again. we can then exhaust all their supplies and look for another country to attack, er, i mean, defend to justify plundering free oil, that's the way to go baby!

Only if we want to justify the whole world in thinking that we're there for the oil.
