Big oil got its baby back, after 36 years of waiting.

Who would have guessed this would happen??

Its about time. Especially since we just spent a half a trillion dollars over there.

And that's exactly why we spent it. As Alan Greenspan said, "The war is about oil." This is why our soldiers died.

SS, that's a fairly ignorant statement to make... We don't have the right to take their oil when we invaded them in the first place. Sad state of affairs.

W gets to retire back to Dallas and party with all his oil and defense buddies. Over 4,000 died GI's, tens of thousands of wounded GI's, hundreds of thousands of dead Iraqi's.

Let the party begin.

What a shameful period of our history.

And Sillysam will still be pretending hes a patriot.

Their baaaack!

It is a sad and bad news.

Let us think together, deeply, in the following:

1- These companies has bayed to Bush and supported the presidential election campaign 04/08
2- Bush, and his regime, has no hope to be in the White House after 2008 presidential election.
3- Bush has to buy back to these companies regardless of "USA National Interest and Benefits".
4- Bush gave these companies those contracts without bid against the wish of Iraq and Iraqi people.

most important.

5- This will create more Hatred and more problems to our beloved country USA and our troops in Iraq.

Sillysam: We demolished the infrastructure of their nation, and unadvisedly began action without their consent that has taken the lives of hundreds of thousands of their people, and has sent a fifth of their nation into exile.

They are infinitely worse off than they were under Saddam, much more unsafe, and whether democracy takes hold is anybody's guess still. We bungled, and it cost them far more than it cost us in blood and tears.

Shouldn't we be paying restitution for the devastation we have visited on them, rather than expecting favors?

I think we should leave them alone and come home. Let it be done with.

Amen to that. But if this is the real reason Bush invaded, or one of the real reasons, you can bet he won't less this one go without pulling out all tricks up his sleeve.
