"There isn't an oil problem" I did not say there was one. On the contrary, I think there are many in the business world who are looking forward to cheap oil returning and boosting the economy after we go in and seize the Iraqi oil fields. The question is what will it cost us?

Ahh, so now we get to his "point" - that because the business community, the Bush administration, the military leadership, the Iraqi opposition and anyone else who suggests it might be wise to eliminate Sadam Hussein's dictatorship are all corrupt co-conspirators whose goal is really to seize oil fields for financial gain, Bush WILL attack Iraq, seize the oil fields and take control of the flow of oil from Iraq regardless of either the cost in human lives, which are irrelevant to such corrupt powers, or whether the American people, the Congress or our allies like it or not. All the correlation as causality stuff was just a build-up to the giant conspiracy "point". I'm glad that's clear now, even if it is begging the question.
