We could use this as payment for liberating there country. Lord knows this war has cost us billions. Then gas prices
would be around $1.00 a gallon and our economy would
be the best its ever been. Then bush would look like a champ. Its time we got paid for all the rebuilding we have done.

We did not liberate their country. We destroyed it. Go to pbs.org and watch last night's Frontline.
If you read the newspapers you will discover that up to %15 million per day is being stolen from Iraq. That is in addition to the war profiteering Cheney and Halliburton and doing.

Because we can't get the oil from the oil fields to the ports. Actually Iraq does not have that much oil. Someone keeps blowing up the pipelines. There are not enough soldiers to guard the pipeline and do everything else.
BTW, when it gets to a port, all most all of Iraq's oil goes to western Europe and Japan. These nations have contracts for it.
We can reduce the price of gasoline by converting cars to run on compressed natural gas (cng). The conversion costs about $1,000 and your local natural gas company can do it. Cost is slightly more than gasoline because there is little demand for it as a fuel. Natural gas reserves in the U.S. can fuel 1 million cars for more than 500 years.

We were there voluntarily. If I came to your house and destroy it and then ask you to pay me for destroying it, you would kick my ***.
Well, one thing is for sure, if we start stealing their oil it will unite the Iraqis! They will all be so focused on killing as many Americans as possible that they will totally forget that they hate each other!

Uh. Because we still have to refine it into gasoline and then store it somewhere.
