re:"So why is your buddy, W, continuing to buy from Saddam at the same time he's trying to drive this country into another war with him? " The same reason that President Clinton did. Iraq claims that sanctions are starving and killing Iraqis. The truth is, that sanctions DO NOT prohibit Iraq from purchasing food or medicine.
